Evaluate my stash? (and help)

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I think my NB stash is just about complete, but I thought it'd be best to hear from some mama's on it.  Does this look pretty good for the NB stage?

 

Covers

3 XS Thirsties

2 NB Proraps

2 Sz1 Thirsties Duos

(was thinking of adding 1-2 more covers, not sure)

 

Diapers

2doz Orange Edge GMD Prefolds

1 WAHM fitted, Kissaluvs style (it was cute and BRIGHT green)

1 Sz0 Kissluvs (to try, may add a couple more)

(was thinking of adding 6-12 GMD workhorse dipes for ease of use for other caregivers, like grandma)

 

AIO

2 XS Thirsties AIO

 

 

 

 

Now for the help part.  With the NB stash about done, I'm wanting to start on the next size up (the Smalls) at least a little bit.  I was thinking of a setup similar to the NB one, with primarily prefolds and fitteds, with some AIOs and Pockets for certain occasions/situations.  Here's what I already have:

 

6 Small BG 3.0 AIOs

1 Small Fuzzibunz

2 Flips

 

I was thinking of some more pockets and of course, adding some covers.  Does that sound like a good, basic stash?  I'm not going to go beyond this stage as I have no way of knowing exactly what will work the best for my baby.  I'm trying to get as much done before we move this summer, since I have such a great resource having Jillian's Drawers here in town.

If it is easy to nip into a cloth diaper shop and get more of what you need I would wait and see what the stork brings and what you like.

If you want to continue with prefolds, I would do more Thirsties duo covers or go into sized S Bummies (they fit average newborns well). If you are not sure the only thing I would add, and you don't need it, is a Thristies duo pocket since it fits from 6 lb and gives you another pocket option to try.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. :)

 

The main reason I'm trying to build a stash of the early sizes is that I'm moving this summer and won't have access to a nearby cloth diaper shop, especially one with such a wonderful used selection as Jillian's.  I figure if I stock up on what I can now before the move, it'll save me time and money down the road.
