Giveaway Closed, but two awesome product reviews remain!
Here at The Inquisitive Mom, I’m excited to bring you an awesome prize pack, with 3 fabulous products. The first is a pair of Baby Undersocks, soon to be an essential item in your baby’s wardrobe. The second is a Thirsties One Size AIO in Limited Edition Black from Happy Baby Bumz to make diapering a snap. The third is a Yummi Everything Storage Bag in Sweet Chevron.
Now that we have a baby in our home again, I’m enjoying the sweet site of tiny feet kicking with excitement, anticipation, and even frustration. I like to leave those tiny toes free to fly when I can, but they need to be covered in the Iowa cold.
Footie pajamas are on solution to cold feet and legs, but who wants to dress their baby in pjs every day? Tiny infant socks are another, but we all know how well those work. Infant socks problematic because they perpetually slip and fall off. If baby kicks off a tiny sock, it is a challenge to find. Put them in the wash and half of them are inevitably missing when you open the dryer.
Baby Undersocks solve all of these problems. These clever thermal pants are made of breathable bamboo, with cozy socks sewn into the bottom. You can put these trim pants on underneath your favorite outfits without adding too much bulk or warmth. They’re a great addition to baby’s wardrobe in the fall and winter!
I received a pair of Baby Undersocks to try on our little guy and immediately wanted four more pairs! We tried a pair with blue socks and I would love to see them come in other colors beyond blue and pink, such as yellow, and green.Here are the three main benefits we found when using Baby Undersocks:
- Elimates the gap between pants and socks. Have you ever found yourself constantly tugging at baby’s pants to keep their calves and ankles warm? This seems to happen the most when baby is in a baby carrier, car seat, or stroller – the main times when socks can also get lost. With Baby Undersocks, I felt confident that the chill wouldn’t reach my baby and he could stay comfortable both inside and outside.
- Adds a layer of warmth under any outfit without overheating. Soft, breathable bamboo is moisture-wicking and light weight. These pants work well under jumpers and pants. They’re perfect for giving warmer temperature clothes a longer wearing cycle. Plus, I think they’re cute enough to wear alone either under or over a onesie.
- Eliminates lost socks. This one speaks for itself. I’ll be honest, I’ve already misplaced the majority of my newborn socks and baby is only 7 weeks old. The initial cost of Baby Undersocks seeems prohibitive, but those lost socks add up.
Overall, I really like Baby Undersocks. I think they are a terrific addition to any layette and a great way to keep your little one warm this holiday season!
Thirsties One Size All-in-One from Happy Baby Bumz
Ashley opened Happy Baby Bumz in 2012 to share her passion for cloth diapering. She chose cloth diapers for her family as a way to save money and help the environment and she wanted to help others enjoy the 
same benefits from cloth. Ashley used cloth diapers with her first baby and is eager to use them again with her second child, due in December. Customers can confidently turn to Ashley for support and advice when choosing a diapering system for their families. Be sure to follow the Happy Baby Bumz Blog to follow along with Ashley as she discovers and tries new brands of cloth diapers with her baby and decides if they are right for her store.
Thirsties covers proved a great night time solution for Ashley’s son, so she decided to carry them in her store. In addition to their celebrated covers, Thirsties recently released two versions of an AIO – a one size and a two size (Duo). Ashley sent me a OS AIO from Thirsties to try on our son at about 5 weeks and between 9 lbs and 10 lbs. I loved the Scottish Storm pattern because it is different from anything else in my stash and opted for aplix because I believe it provides a better fit for new babies.
I’ve struggled with one size diapers on my son because of his trim frame and skinny legs. A fit around the waist often left a frustrating gap in the legs, even with wings at the waist. I will admit I doubted this diaper at first, but was pleasantly surprised to discover it fit baby very well. While it clearly has room to grow into toddlerhood, it doesn’t swamp a new baby in folds of ill-fitting fabric.
The Thirsties OS AIO is truly the easiest a one-size cloth diaper can get. The insert is attached on one end and has a total of four layers of absorbent microfiber terry. Baby stays comfortable with a micro-fleece stay-dry liner and a waterproof exterior. Plus, the diaper boasts elastic around the legs and waist. This elastic helps for a better fit on a trim baby like ours and helps to keep leaks from escaping.
While this diaper is long and probably would be a bit large fitting in its beginning weight range, it fits our baby well. I am impressed that the insert manages to be so absorbent, but avoid bulkiness, especially on a one-month old. The diaper is also convenient for rinsing, washing, and drying. With the insert attached, no stuffing or un-stuffing is required. Plus, the insert is only attached on one end, making this a quick drying diaper.
The aplix also met my expectations for a quick, comfortable fit. Snaps can work well for newborns, but I sometimes find my baby is in between rows for the “perfect fit.” Aplix can be more easily adjusted for the best possible fit. The velcro is not the stickiest I’ve experienced, so I can’t attest to how it will hold up over time, but it has worn and washed well thus far.
In the end, I liked the Thirsties One Size All-in-One so much, I’ve added it to my list of top AIOs and I plan to purchase more in the future.

My favorite holiday tradition is making tamales for Christmas, with my mom 🙂
Thank you.
My favorite tradition is croissants and fruit salad on Christmas morning.
My favorite tradition is decorating for Christmas the weekend after Thanksgiving. I am also excited to start making our own traditions now that we have a LO!
I love everything about the holidays! We started a new tradition a few years back. We spend one of the Saturdays before Christmas making homemade pasta (cheese ravioli is my favorite); we then eat what we made for a big Christmas dinner feast.
Homemade cinnamon rolls and the Christmas Bible Story the morning of!
Anything that entails snuggling up and vegging out w/my five kiddos is a favorite for me! PJs and stories in front of the lighted tree, making and consuming treats we don’t have any other time of the year…I’ve actually come to love staying up until 3-4 am Christmas morning wrapping presents and stuffing stockings because then I have countless opportunities to watch them sleep, and wonder if they’re dreaming of Christmas morning.
My favorite tradition is choosing a Hallmark ornament for all of my children each year since they were born!
Watching movies and drinking hot chocolate (or hot buttered rum… lol)
I want to add this to my giveaway roundup but the entry form says this ends in 37 days, is that right?
Hi Maria! I fixed it. Sorry about that and thank you for adding it!
Hot chocolate and Love Actually!

Even though our kids are grown, we still read T’was The Night Before Christmas on Christmas Eve. We open one small gift after Church and before bed.
Thirsties OS AIO interest me very much. My daughter is going to cloth diaper our grandbaby, so I am very interest in CDs. I am learning as much as I can about them. They are nothing like the CDs we used many years ago. Would love to win one for our grandbaby so that it will make things easier on our daughter and her husband.
My favorite holiday tradition is baking cookies with my mom and sister. We let the kids decorate the sugar cookies.
My favorite holiday tradition is candelight church services on Christmas Eve, singing Christmas carols!
I’d love to win Thirsties products, I’ve heard nothing but good things about them, and we’re planning to cloth diaper our little one. I’ve never heard of the undersocks before, but they sound like a great product for when we’re visiting grandparents in the winter!
I love going to the tree farm and getting our tree then coming home to decorate with family!
I had never heard of Undersocks before, but living up north those seem like they’d be REALLY handy and warm! We already love Thirsties so much, their products are so affordable and seem to be built to last!
My favorite tradition is coffee cake Christmas morning.
I would love to win the underworld. I had never heard of them before.
Favorite holiday tradition is getting together with family and watching the kids play and open gifts!
Christmas Eve we always go to my parent’s house with the entire family (I’m the oldest of 9). We play bingo and other games, have a drink if we want to, and all take all kinds of munchies. It’s so much fun! When we get home we let the kids each open one present. I love Christmas Eve!
I like going to look at lights
Id love to win the thirsties. the undersocks look great too. they would be wonderful for outing in the winter
Id love to have another thristies in my stash. they are great diapers and I love black

I would LOVE to win the diaper especially! I am just starting to build our stash and have heard great things about Thirsties AIO’s.
My favorite holiday tradition is when we hike into the forest near our home and cut down our own christmas tree. It’s usually a Charlie Brown tree, but it smells amazing and it’s always an adventure!
I’m really intrigued by the Baby Undersocks! I have the hardest time keeping socks on my little one, and I always worry she’s getting cold. We frequently venture outdoors in the winter, and these would be perfect as a base layer to keep her warm. Thanks for featuring this company!
my favorite tradition is holiday pictures
ive never tried a thirsties product. and im also slightly worried to try a velco diaper since i want mine to last for my next baby too.
I love using an Advent wreath. Praying weekly (or nightly) and lighting the correct number of candles really helps me maintain a focus on Christ during the holiday season.
I like the Baby Undersocks. I’ve used Baby Legs (with pants and socks) for a similar purpose, but the lighter weight of these sounds perfect.
I love my dad reading Luke’s account of the Christmas story!
To by honest. I’ve never been one for holiday traditions. Now that I’m married with a 1 ya old daughter, I would like to start new traditions. I’m not sure what that is yet. Probably decorating the tree together and watching a xmas movie with hot cocoa 🙂
I like having my mom’s pancakes on Christmas morning!
I’m really interested in the new Thirsties AIO! The new version’s extra absorbency sounds awesome!
The Yummi bag sounds really interesting! I had no idea you could wash something like that in the dishwasher!
I’d love to try an AIO because they seem so easy to use I love Thirsties .
My favorite tradition is baking cookies and reading Christmas stories with the kids on Christmas Eve
Singing Christmas Carols
I’ve never heard of baby undersocks before, but they’d be perfect in colder climates during the winter.
My favorite holiday tradition is visiting both of my grandparents on Christmas Eve and then being with my parents Christmas Day.
Watching Christmas movies!
My favorite tradition is a huge dinner with family!
My favorite tradition is the children always open stockings when they first wake up. (usually far too earlier) I love hearing whispers of joy.
I’m loving the new thirsties prints! I’ve never used Thirsties, but my sister loves them.
As a kid, I loved that my family always came over for Christmas Eve dinner and to open presents. Then we always went to my grandmother’s house for a more formal dinner on Christmas Day. Twice the family and twice the fun!
My favorite tradition is baking and eating mince pies!
I’ve never heard of Baby Undersocks before, what a great idea! I always struggled with the gap on my little guys legs when babywearing, this would be great for my new little due in March so I can avoid that problem.
My son has really narrow hips and I had a tough time with the fit of our diapers when we first started cloth diapering, I never tried Thirsties though. I expect that my baby girl due in March will have narrow hips too (runs in the family) so it would be nice to try them on her.
These pants are so smart. I am a big lover of long socks…lol. So putting these on baby makes prefect sense during this chilly season.
My favorite Holiday tradition is going out at night and pick/ finding a Christmas tree. We set it up and decorate the tree the next day.
Baking! Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
I have never heard of Baby Undersocks but I like that they add warmth without the bulk.
I would love to win to be able to try the Thirsties OS AIO which has the multiple layers of absorption. Thanks for the chance to win 🙂
I never knew they made a product like this. We do not have children yet, but one is on the way so I am gathering all information! I’d love to win this drawing because I currently have nothing (Just found out we’re expecting)
My favorite holiday tradition is my in-laws Christmas party on Christmas Eve
I love going to cut down a Christmas tree and watching Christmas classics with the family
