    I bought all in ones and to save money in the long run I got one size fits most. I find the bonnibuns workhorse incredibly reliable, affordable and more of an AI2 style AIO. Abby Gro ROCK as well! My cousin got me on to both of those and I haven't looked back. Both very user friendly and straight forward and don't have to upgrade as bubs grows. I use Cushie Tushies too but they aren't my favourite performance wise compared to the other 2 brands i frequent.

    Another thing is the bonnbuns Night nappy is Charlotte wee proof. That baby can out wet a huggies sposie in 3 hours while sleeping but wakes up dry as anything.......

    If you google MCN's you'll find all the sew in/snap in info. Basically with a snap in the booster inside the nappy can be removed for washing/drying as its attatched with snaps, which are just like press studs, but plastic. Sewn in is just that, but only sewn on one end so drying time is still quick iykwim.

    AIO's are pretty easy & most now have the booster sewn or snapped in. AI2's are usually just the shell, then the booster, where as an AIO will usually have some absorbancy in the shell, then an extra booster, or the absorbancy can all be sewn into the nappy.

    Fitteds, covers & pockets aren't really that much more work. Well I don't think so.

    Have a look on face books buy & sell mcn's page. You should be able to pick up some second hand ones to get you started (if you don't mind 2nds). Some are new as well.

    Good luck

    If we're throwing brand names around then I can second CL's recommendations for Bonnibuns and Abbygros
