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!
