I started ECing with my 8mo over a month ago and have been contemplating a new mostly waterproof trainer. More absorbant than gerber trainers but not at all bulky.
Typically now if she is in a diaper/cover combo (at home she is either diaper-free in gerber trainers or a coverless diaper) it is a trifolded infant prefold in a fleece cover (homemade w/snaps).
I am contemplating a pull-on-style now for when/as she gets better at EC. I was thinking of using Katrina's soaker pattern http://http://katrinassqs.blogspot.com/2007/10/free-soaker-pattern.html and sewing in an infant prefold that has been cut in a contoured shape to fit.
I don't sew, I'd be getting my MIL to do it
What do you all think? Should there be a layer of cotton over the prefold that covers the whole area inside?
Would I have too hard of a time getting them clean/dry?
