Need Newborn Diapers - Where to Buy?

[JuniperMama]

Thanks to a very generous good friend, I have been lent a bunch of Kissaluv size 0 and FB size smalls so I don't have to buy as much as I thought I would. :

For the first 6 months, I think I just need to buy:
* FB small inserts
* 36 small pre-folds
* Covers
* Large dirty bag
* Wet bag for diaper bag
* Diaper sprayer

Does this seem right?

I was wondering if anyone has used the FB one-size dipe and what you thought of it.

Also, where would you buy this stuff online?

Thanks!

I really like http://www.pittsburghclothdiapers.com/ (always free shipping) and nickisdiapers.com. :-)

Being that much of the re-birth of what we now know of cloth diapers started on-line with wahm manufacturers like FB -- I would think it is safe to say that buying online will give you the biggest variety and often times quality vs. buying from a IRL retailer.

I would caution buying from anyone not in business for six month or without personal recommendation just as a safety net. As a norm, most diaper manufacturers around for a year are usually pretty established and good to buy from, IME over the last 8 years in the web.

adding that unless your set on it, a sprayer is not always necessary but for many a nice option.

That is great that you were able to get so much from a friend - definately helpful

As for where to buy - there are lots of us wahm's who sell cloth diapers. Most of us carry a wide selection of diapers and are happy to help you

Happy rest of your pregnancy!

Definately add some cloth wipes to your list. And yeah 36 prefold sounds like a lot to me, 2 dozen should be plenty. Also if you're going the prefold route you should add some snappis to your list. I never used a diaper sprayer, though I could see some value in it for an older baby/toddler. I wouldn't worry about it until you're getting close to introducing solids.
