- 2008 March 2, Melia, the doula, “Cloth diaper lasting ALL night?”, in austinbirthing[1], Google Groups:
- I tried layering inserts, different inserts, different cloth brands, etc. Nothing worked. I figured one sposie wasn't too bad in the grand scheme of things.
- 2012, Willow Yamahchi, Bad Mommy, Insomniac Press, →ISBN, page 91:
- The only bad-karma-reducing sposie on the market is a new line of biodegradable (meaning here "useless") sposie that won't last through the lightest of baby pees and will force you to change baby approximately once every thirty seconds, thereby completely undoing any so-called karma reduction. Only bad mommies use sposies.
