Seventh Generation Diaper Review and GIVEAWAY!!


Sweet: Eco-friendly, soft, no diaper rash
Sour: Tabs could be nicer
Finally! We have reached my favorite product from Seventh Generation. I saved the best for last.
These are fantastic diapers. I went into this thinking they were going to be like cardboard on my little guy’s bum, but hey why not try them. As with almost all these green products I was surprised at how nice they were.
The diapers are not like cardboard at all. The outer layer is a firmer paper-like material but it is not plastic-like at all.  I was worried about this, because Luvs and basic Pampers and a few of the other plastic-like diapers caused Little G to get some awful diaper rash. The inside of the diaper is actually a soft material. It resembles other brands but is much nicer.

Seventh Generation diapers are so amazing. When wearing these Little G has little to no diaper rash. The first week we gave these a shot was when he was really sick and the poor guy had diarrhea 4-5 times a day for the whole week. Through the whole thing he had almost no diaper rash. Awesome.
I treated these diapers like gold. I saved the last few to be night time diapers, for when he would wear them the longest.
My only con for these is that the tabs are not as nice as the other brands. They are not as stretchy, are wider and a stiffer fabric. I feel this is a small price to pay for their greatness.
Seventh Generation Diapers are
  • Wood pulp processed without chemicals containing chlorine

Seventh Generation Baby Wipes Review


Sweet: Soft yet strong wipes.
Sour: Scent, packaging.
The Seventh Generation Wipes were not my favorite of the lineup.  I think these could be a great product if they had some improvement.
The basis for this (the wipe) is really nice. It is made like a stronger version of a sensitive wipe. I liked that the wipe wasn’t over moist and it didn’t irritate Little G’s bum.
On the down side I didn’t like the fragrance of the wipe at all. Perhaps this was just me, but it seemed to have a strong and slightly pungent odor. This seems to go against the Seventh Generation line, so I would give them another shot. In addition to that the packaging made the wipes hard to get out of the case, but not impossible. Are any of the brands easy to get out anyway?
So bummer on the wipes, but my favorite is still to come!

Seventh Generation Natural Baby Laundry Detergent Review


Sweet: Eco-friendly, fragrance and dye free, got out poo stains
Sour: Would be nicer in a concentrate form
I know that all the Seventh Generation Reviews sound like peaches and cream. But honestly I really do like them! So far through the testing phase, each one has held up well. My clothes came out nice and clean and I used the detergent to pre-treat some poo stains (Not Mine or D’s). I was very excited about the stain removing qualities.  Since Little G usually poos at the daycare, by the time we get the clothes at home the stains are set. At one point we threw out a onesie because there was no saving it. I think this will certainly help us to keep more of Little G’s clothes.
Originally I was a little upset that this was not a concentrate, but when I went looking on their website, it does! I would definitely buy the 2x version of this.
 Seventh Generation Baby Detergent is

  • Non-toxic & biodegradable
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Free of phosphates & optical brighteners
  • Safe for septic & greywater systems
  • Not tested on animals
  • Kosher-certified
