We are going to be using a combo of MCN and traditional cloth nappies. We just couldn't afford to use disposables all the time. However we have a trip to Brisbane planned for when Peanut is approx 3w old and have decided to use disposables for the trip as we didn't want to be filling the car up with stinky nappies while we're driving there.
Good luck with the nappies and as the others said I think as long as you don't mind the extra washing they are by far the best way to go.
Having said that though, we were suprised in our antenatal classes that out of 7 couples, Jeremy and I were the only ones planning on using cloth. Everyone else was using disposables!
x20 Bamboo (Fits from Newborn to Approx 3yrs old)
x6 AIO's - Minkee
x6 PUL Covers with Velcro
x4 Wool PUL Covers (Night time use)
Additional x5 Bamboo Fold Ups.
I plan to purchase more a few weeks afte baby arrives, however, I figure as I will be regularly washing anyway this was a good starter pack
I decided a while ago that I would use MCN.
I have 24 bumgenius and 10 pop ins. I think they are soo cute and I love playing with them now. We don't have a proper clothes dryer so I wanted to be sure I had enough JIC.
I am not sure about initially when bub and I are still in hossy, I may use sposies then only.
Admittedly I really hate it when people scoff at the idea of MCN especially when they say " I bet you won't last a week" One lady at work even said she'd buy me a few packets of sposies - I just replied to not waste her money.
I have no probs with peoples choice to use Sposies so why should a choice of MCN be scoffed at.
