I found this cloth diaper site - Sweet Little Blessings that is really neat. They sell all types of diapers and diapering accessories. Coleen from Sweet Little Blessings sent me a Froggy Oh Katy One Size Pocket Diaper to review.

Every Oh Katy™
One-Size Pocket Diaper comes with a full-size adjustable insert and a
newborn insert/doubler. Fits most babies from 8-35lbs.
Unique Features Include:
- Patented front-opening pocket design
- Infant side snaps to prevent wing-droop
- Wrap and snap feature for clean storage
- Ultra-soft microfiber fleece to keep baby feeling dry
- Multiple inserts included
This was the first one sized diaper that I had ever used. I was really curious on how one diaper would be able to fit such a large range of size. It was perfect timing for me too as we just had our second baby and have a 20 month old. I was a little concerned that the diaper would be too bulky for my newborn and not work well but it actually worked really great! I used it on my newborn on the smallest settings and around the Medium (maybe a bit bigger) settings for my 20 month old. The diaper worked great as a daytime and nighttime (with the extra insert) diaper.
The Oh Katy inserts have a logo/tag on them - now I can quickly tell which inserts belong to them. You can see the tags on the inserts in the picture below.
The Oh Katy diapers include both a newborn size insert and regular size insert. These can be used together for more absorption for heavy wetters or for overnight. The regular sized insert can be folded over and snapped (see second picture) to use for a newborn. The inserts had pretty good absorption, though I haven't ever used microfiber inserts before, I only have used cotton/bamboo blends and combinations.
This is the first pocket diaper I've used that the opening to put the insert in is in the front rather than the back. It's easy to use there and since there isn't any elastic which can make it a bit more inconvenient to push the inserts in.
Over all I thought these diapers were really great! I love that they fit both a newborn and a toddler. I'm not fond of the microfiber inserts as I prefer using organic or natural fabrics for my baby's diapers, but overall they are a really great diaper for a great price.
And, from now until April 30th you can buy 5 and get 1 Oh Katy diaper FREE at Sweet Little Blessings.

I like that it fits such a variety of sizes and works well at night.
I love that they opening is in the front! I bet it would help unstuffing too!

Thanks for being a sponsor!!!
I would love to try one of these diapers... I love the size range and the colors and that you can roll it up if you forget a wet bag... which i do sometimes :(
These look amazing! Love the snaps and that they carry small sizes. I have a wee one on the way soon and find the one-size diapers too big.
Thanks
I have been wanting to try one of these diapers. I like the double row of snaps
I've heard such great things about these CDs I'd love to try them!
Thanks for the review! I've been wanting to try an Oh Katy diaper now that my baby is finally fitting her one size diapers:)

I have a couple of these and they offer a nice, trim fit on my 2 1/2 year old daughter -- not sure how they'll work for baby #2 due in July :/ But, the front pocket is very convenient when cleaning poopy diapers!
Great review! I really like all the cute colors!
Wow! I did not realize the owner has 12 children. I've bought from her before and was pleased with her service. The shipping was fast.
I love the different colors.
To echo Dandi, the colors are really cute and I like the variety - you don't see some of them on other diapers!
i like how the insert has snaps to help with sizing. Thanks for the review
I like how they offer newborn sizes. I'm currently looking for a few to have when my baby comes in July
love snaps! and that they come so small! Would love to try one of these on my little one due in a couple weeks!
I love the snaps!
I like that the larger insert snaps down so you can double stuff for nighttime, even on the smallest setting.
I love how the inserts have snaps...Great review.
I love Oh Katy's. My son has just about outgrown them but I plan to have at least a few in my stash for Baby #2. They fit so trim!
I'd imagine the front stuff would be easier for unstuffing the inserts with a messy diaper. cute diaper, too!
I have heard good things about these diapers and would love to try them!
would love to try them! love the different insert sizes
Sounds like this is a good diaper to get for my son due in June. I know that some OS diapers don't actually fit newborns well. Glad to hear you had good luck with it!
Love it when a company clearly labels their inserts! Makes for easy laundry!
The opening for the insert in the front is a much smarter place to put it! Our little girl is exclusively breast fed and her poo usually ends up in the opening for the inserts in the diapers we are currently using where the opening is in the back.
i personally can attest to the wonderful size range. my 8lb at birth, and my 35lb toddler. love this diaper. :)

thanks for the review!
Did you have any problems with wicking at the front from the diaper rolling at baby's belly?
I learned that the Sweet Blessings owner has 12 kids. Now that's impressive! I have only one and sometimes I feel like pulling my hair out ;)
I love this diaper! Especially the fit for my son who is fairly skinny! it fits so well:-)
I have 2 Oh Katy diapers in our stash. I love the fit on our skinny girl. I would love to have one in each color. The colors are gorgeous.
Cindy B (on rc/fb) ~ these diapers look like a really nice addition to any stash. Thanks for the review.
We haven't tried Oh Katys, but crossover tabs and front-stuff are both great features!
Looks like a great diaper! I hope to try one soon.
These diapers are fantastic! I would love to have a Cherry one!
Oh Katy's are definitely on my "must try" list...they look so so so nice!
I have 2 Oh Katy diapers and they are my sons favorite! He loves the colors and he cries if I put him in our other diapers (he only wears diapers at night)
I like that you pull the insert out from the front! That is nice :-)
thanks for the giveaway. we like these diapers
I love oh katys
I really love the look of these. The Twilight color is my favorite!
Twelve?! Uff, that's a lot of diapering practice! Sounds like she knows her stuff!
I like that the inserts have a logo on them, and I love that the owner is mom to 12 children!

I've never tried an Oh Katy! I love the colors!
I like how the inserts are able to be folded down and buttoned.
I love the bluebird color and how trim these dipes are :)
