Pocket Diapers are a little more expensive than some of the other optons, but have a lot of advantages. Pockets are a two-piece system that includes a layer of waterproofing with another layer of a soft material, such as fleece, attached. The soft material would be next to baby's skin. The inner and outer material is not sewn together on one edge, thus leaving a pocket. You can use any type of material in this pocket for absorbency. Many people use microterry inserts, hemp inserts or even prefolds. Without an absorbent material, or insert, placed in the pocket these diapers have no absorbency at all. Due to the design of these diapers, they are quick drying.  They are also ideal running errands as everything can be prepared in advance and take up very minimal space in the diaper bag. You can also use a doubler with these to add even more absorbency. You do not need a separate cover for these since the outer layer is made of a waterproof material. Some examples of pocket diapers that I recommend are Fuzzi Bunz, BumWear and bumGenius!. All work great and are so adorable on baby! Also, these are so easy to use that even Daddy or the babysitter won't mind using them!
