So as I am gearing up for baby, I realized it might be nice to get some advice from you guys about cloth diapers. I am very new to this whole thing, but am going to do it for the environment and because I hear it is better on babies bum. So after doing some research his is what I bought.
2 Preemie Bummi's Diaper Covers (Size 4-8lbs) (I am expecting a small baby)
3 NB Bummi's Diaper Covers (Size 7-12lbs)
24 Indian Prefolds (size NB-S)
12 Preemie Prefolds
2 snappi's
4 sets of diaper pins
also... (at baby shower I recieved)
1 Organic Caboose fitted cloth diaper (very nice but expensive)
4 Small Prefolds with designs
Does this sound like a good set up?
What is the best way to clean cloth diapers? I am breastfeeding and I heard you do not have to clean off the poo if you are breastfeeding.
Firstly, if you have snappis I wouldn't bother with nappy pins, they are such a PITA. So my advice is to go chuck them in the sewing box.
I'd probably grab a few more covers, not premmie ones as I personally don't think you'll need the premmie stuff, I'd go medium, bub will grow into them, and then you won't have to worry about getting new covers.
Cleaning - you can use liners, or get a "little squirt" so you can clean the poo off. Not sure what you mean abou not having to clean poo off - they definately do poo when they're breastfeeding and its gross lol
Ok so theres my two cents, I'll let someone else give you more detailed advice (too early for me!).
Bummis?
