My SIL has decided she wants to CD so I'm buying her a starting stash. Â She has no dryer so it has to be line drying friendly but I also want to make it as user friendly as possible. Â I'm a flat fan but I know a lot of other people aren't ;) .. I also want to include different types of diapers to help her figure out what she likes / doesn't like so she can go ahead and get what works for them as the baby gets older. Â I think it must be sufficient to CD a newborn though without her buying a bunch of additional stuff.
Â
So I have already for her from my stash:
6 small birdseye cotton flats (from GMD)
1 small WAHM pocket diaper off of Etsy (it fits kind of funny though)
1 small muttaquin fitted diaper with dual snap in liner
2 medium WAHM fitted diapers (one of which will take forever to line dry, but hey, I'm not using it ...)
Â
I'm going to make for her:
2 newborn wool cover from Katrina's soaker pattern made by me
2 small "Â
2 medium "
5-6 newborn fitted diapers from the free Darlin Diapers newborn pattern made by me (from pieces I cut to make dipes for my babe and never got around to it .. lol)
Â
I'm probably going to buy for her:
1-2 dozen small birdseye cotton flats from GMD
1 bottle diaper lotion potion
2 dozen double sided cloth wipes
1 bottle eucalan
1 large pail liner
1 three pack snappis
4 diaper pins
Â
The real questions I have is to go with sized PUL diaper covers (I was thinking 2 newborn Litewraps and 2 Bummis size small) or maybe some Grovia shells. Â If I get Grovia shells, she can use them like a regular cover but I can also get the snap in soakers and it would be really user friendly like an AIO. Â But I don't know how friendly the soakers would be for line drying. Â
Â
I was also thinking of getting a couple of workhorse size small diapers and maybe a couple of pocket diapers though I don't want to spend a fortune and a single pocket diaper is almost as much as a dozen flats. Â What do you think? Â
Â
And am I missing anything?
