I have a 3 week old and am experimenting with dif dipe systems. I have discovered that I hate pins. What are some good covers that you can just fold the prefold into? I have 2 biobottoms but they are super expensive and not the greatest for holding in messes. I am thinking of getting some bummis - what do tou think?

I dunno on the covers, but I suggest trying out a Snappi

I haven't been CD very long. But I've tried many covers

Bummis are awesome for no pins. Have you tried a snappi? I concur though pins are evil.

I love Bummis for no pins. They work great! Proraps were ok too but I found they left red marks on ds's chubby thighs. I also liked the Bumpy covers.

Bummis are great. I love Bumpys as well.

I really like loveybums, she does aplix wraps, but even with snaps her pul covers work great for me with a prefold stuck inside. They are just stretchy all over!

I used gerber e-z covers when I started and they were great. Proraps are my fave covers (that I have tried) I also have a couple bumkins covers and they work good too. Proraps are my fave because of the leg gussets, it keeps poop in. SO funny (and

: ) that I have never had a leak with covers, but have leaks quite frequently with my $$ pocket dipes

as others have suggested, I love bummis for just laying a prefold in - they are more sturdy I guess so hold the dipe in place better IMO

Bummis always worked well for us. Snappis are great if you don't like pins. I liked using them with the prefolds when DS was small, it helped keep the poop off the covers
