preemie/ newborn stash critique for twins

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
The twins are coming soon (AHHHHHH!!!) and I want place my last diaper order for their preemie/newborn stash asap.

Here's what I'm thinking.

Preemie: (I plan on washing 1x per day or every day and a half)
- 36 prefolds
- 10 proraps preemie covers

Newborn:
- 24 newborn size prefolds
- 24 infant size prefolds
- 12 Size 0 Kissaluvs fitteds
- 12 x-small Thirsties covers
- 6 other random newborn size covers
- 4 x-small fuzzibunz pockets

Accessories:
- a ton of wipes that I am making myself
- 2 pail liners
- 2 medium size wet bags
- 4 snappies

Any thoughts and input are greatly appreciated!!

I think that looks pretty good for your preemie/newborn stash. If you find you desperately are in need of something else, most of us cloth diaper store wahms ship pretty fast

Looks like a pretty decent plan to me, Mama! It's true that you can always order more later if you feel you need them. With 2 in diapers (I'll be joining you in Aug), you'll have to wash more than average anyway. Even if you had enough diapers for 2 days, they may not all fit in the washer anyway (and still get clean).

Good luck with everything and enjoy those babes! When are they coming again?

Thanks everyone! I just wanted to be sure I wasn't forgetting something obvious.

Yes, I plan on washing (or begging someone to wash for me ) every day or day and a half but would like to be able to go 2 days, if needed. Things can get nuts around here quickly, lol! Plus, my 2 year old isn't showing too much interest in getting out of diapers and I don't have the energy to really encourage it right now. I'll probably end up doing a couple of loads of diapers instead of just one, having 3 in diapers.

The twins will be here in 4-7 weeks-- 4 being on the early side but I'm not sure that my body will be able to hold out much past 33-34 weeks. I'm shooting for 36 weeks though.

Hope you are feeling good!

Bless those babies!

Hope you are feeling good and they "bake" for just the right amount of time!
