Though it is thick, this diaper fits well and is adorable on Baby Bee's bum. The newborn soaker works as a booster to add extra absorbency.
One thing that initially worried me about Rumparooz was that the diapers are made in China. I was concerned about my purchase supporting a possible sweat shop, but while I was writing this review I found out that Rumparooz had recently won a MACT award. One of the qualifications for this award is that the company provide fair and safe working conditions for their employees. You can read more here.
