Cloth Diapers Galore

All the new stuff. Look at the size difference of Kenna's stuff on the left and Maddy's on the right. I can't beleive my Maddy will have a booty that tiny!
Madelynn's covers on the right and her prefolds on the right, they are soooo teeeeny tiny.
Kenna's pretty new covers


So after buying tons of different brands and things with mediums, we KNOW what we like now! We love the unbleached(so soft) Chinese prefolds and proraps and Thirsties covers. I also enjoy the Bumkins covers because they are so cute. I bought 2 dozen large and 2 dozen newborn prefolds. I also bought a few new girlie colored snappies, 6 large and 6 newborn Prorap covers, 2 newborn Thirsty covers, 1 large Thirsty and 1 large Bumkins cover. Oh and of course, I bought a new stash of 30 soft new wipeys. I am all set for Kenna's larges and Maddy's newborn diapers now, YAY! Besides a few more clothes, we are all ready for baby Maddy who will be making her debut in 13 weeks. Its getting close.

I love your stash! When we move to a place with a w/d in the apt I'm going to cd. Our laundry is so expensive already at $100+ a month. Yikes!

Cloth diapers are definitely the way to go. Especially chinese prefold. I have a stash of my own.

I don't know how you do it all, I have 4 kids and am never caught up enough with the laundry to cloth diaper, I have some but am overwhelmed with regular laundry, plus potty training laundry.

Hi Janis! Where do you get your diapers from? I originally wanted to do pocket diapers but have now decided that I want to do prefolds because they are a TON cheaper and better on the pocket book :)

Janis,
Very cute diapers! I am doing FBS and BGS for now. My lil man is going on 18 months so we hope to break out the potty this Spring/Summer to see how he does. I have the bummis for my coves and almost unbleached CPF. I have not gotten use to those yet, but would love to!

Jeanie, you actually will have to have a meeting and they will try everything under the sun to keep your kids there. Hold strong! Remember, they just want them to stay because every kid that leaves makes them that much broker lol

Is that what you are using, prefolds? I have pockets and right now having issues w/ Ammonia smell. Going to use Tide and see what happens...
How are you feeling

Janis,
My husband and I are expecting our first child. I am certain on using cloth diapers, there are just so many different kinds!
Are prefolds with covers your favorite? Is there a reason you didn't go with a one-size type that will last the entire diaper-wearing years?
Do you suggest I just buy every kind and experiment with them to decide which I like best?
