The one product that has helped my baby with eczema sleep comfortably at night

This post is in partnership with Coterie. I only endorse products I believe in.

For a lot of new parents, choosing the perfect diaper for their infant or toddler is one of the highest priorities ahead of their birth. There are so many considerations to take into account: cost, materials, production, and brand values all play a role in helping us pick a winner (or further complicate your decision!). But it seems like most options only check a few of these boxes, so dressing your baby becomes a pros-and-cons exercise.

Thankfully, one brand really stands out in my own experience, and that’s Coterie Diapers! It’s the #1 brand for my high standards as a mom of seven, two of whom have now worn Coterie’s signature diaper. If you’re also a stickler for affordability, cleanliness, sustainability, and an honest commitment to family wellness, Coterie is for you.

Why my family loves Coterie

When my second-youngest daughter was a baby, we discovered that she had severe eczema and set out on a quest to switch to all-natural products in our home. This was a daunting process initially, but once we removed all fragrances and chemicals, you could see a huge difference in her skin. One switch that we knew we had to make was the diapers we were using at the time, which we noticed were irritating her skin too. 

We found out about Coterie and, upon reading the reviews, decided to give them a try. I’m so glad we did because they quickly became our new favorite diaper brand! Their diapers were unparalleled in how soft and gentle they were on her skin, plus they were super absorbent to keep her dry, particularly overnight. 

Our youngest daughter is four-and-a-half months old, and we knew that Coterie would be our go-to diaper brand for her as well. While she doesn’t have eczema, I feel relieved knowing that we’re able to use diapers for her that are hypoallergenic, sustainably made, and cruelty-free. 

Budget-friendly

Money management is an understandable postpartum stressor: after all, bringing a baby home creates a major upheaval both personally and financially, and it takes some time to adjust. It’s beneficial to find a diaper brand that doesn’t break the bank since any new parent can attest that diapers disappear fast. You’ll be going through them like literal toilet paper, so if a brand makes that rapid-fire buying more affordable, it’s a win!

For what you get with Coterie, their diapers are still reasonably priced. They offer a monthly subscription service so bulk orders can be delivered right to your door. Plus, they’re currently running a 15% off special for your first order and 10% off every month after if you sign up for the subscription. It’s both convenient and cost-effective.

Healthy materials

The very best part of Coterie Diapers is the materials they use. Even before my daughter’s eczema diagnosis, I was reading labels and trying to avoid chemical-laden products for my kids, which is a herculean task nowadays. Coterie’s diapers are hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free, and made of 25% plant-based materials.

Newborns are exposed to brand-new sensory experiences on a daily basis during the fourth trimester, so we obviously want to minimize the chance of irritating their skin from day one. The Coterie diaper is free of fragrance, lotion, latex, rubber, dyes, alcohol, parabens, phthalates, pesticides, chlorine bleaching, VOCs, and optical brighteners—WOW! Everything they do put in is just as important as what they don’t.

Responsibly sourced

Another thing I love about Coterie is that they only use chlorine-free wood pulp that they source from sustainably managed forests. They’re ensuring that their carbon footprint stays small— especially in comparison to other diaper companies—which in turn protects our kids’ futures. It feels good to have found a brand that really cares. 

And this eco-friendly and ethical process creates a diaper that stands up to other brands for its 12-hour leak protection, 70% greater liquid capacity, and quick-wicking absorbency, which keeps your child three times drier than a regular diaper. It even has a wetness indicator to let you know when your little one needs freshening up. That kind of strength and comfort in a diaper means that everyone in the house will sleep more soundly

Quality recognizes quality

My favorite title is Mom, but when I’m at work, I’m a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant. As both a parent and a business owner, I’ve learned how to spot true quality products, which is why I’m a forever fan of Coterie. Their diapers are designed for sensitive baby skin without sacrificing the commitment to sustainable practices and animal welfare, all of which mean a lot to me as someone who’s mindful about what I’m bringing into my home.

I’d definitely recommend Coterie Diapers to new parents. For us, Coterie finally met every expectation for a diaper brand because they don’t skimp on the things that matter and while it’s expensive, it’s worth it. Of course, you can’t put a price tag on the peace of mind that comes with knowing we’re diapering our babies with a quality product.

My babies sleep better with Coterie

Finding brands that can grow with your family is so important, and Coterie has been there for us on day one. I’m grateful to have found a diaper that genuinely prioritizes our children’s health, and I’m proud to recommend them to the families I work with every day. As a Sleep consultant, it is important to me that I also recommend products that are going to help babies sleep better and I feel confident in recommending Coterie since I have seen first hand how they have improved sleep for both my girls. 

A Coterie Diapers subscription could be a game-changer for your newborn or toddler. Their diaper helps support a balanced baby sleep schedule given the superior absorbency that allows parents to get some much-appreciated shut-eye too. 

And if you’re looking for a sleep consultant to get your kiddo on that coveted schedule as soon as possible, feel free to reach out to us. My Sweet Sleeper is here for you and yours, for all things baby-related! Wishing your little one sweet (and dry!) dreams.
