Hi ladies

I have decided that I do not want to go down the flats and covers path, despite my mother's nagging. Just personal choice.

Because I will be studying post-graduate full time in 2009 I have decided I like the one size, AIO option. So far I like Bum Genius one size AIO and Cushie Tushies. I am assuming I will have a large baby and be able to put them in the 'newborn fold' right away as I was 68cm long when born 3 months premature and hubby was a 9 pound 11 ounce baby. But I might be wrong!

Baby will be born in winter and we do not have a drier, nor do we want one. Will I need 24 or 36 nappies? Can I use flushable liners instead of a little squirt?

Because these AIOs are sort of on the pricey side if I get extras for winter, do they actually end up cheaper than disposables???

Please excuse my ignorance! Thanks in advance.
