Since I found out I was getting Angelo, I have been buying and collecting diapers for him (this also includes Emilio's outgrown diapers that I kept). So his "small" size stash is getting bigger everyday! DH watches the kids while I teach, and he will only use velcro AIOs, so I am wondering if I will need more (I work 4 10 hour days)... here is what I counted up (also- check out how many I found IRL!!)

AIOs
1 Bunny Hug
1 Didee Snug Velcro (found IRL)
5 Angelwraps (velcro)
2 small fb

1 small unknown John Lennon (velcro)
3 small BBH
1 Babies Bum?

Fitteds

1 Jordyn's Dreams (was Emilio's)
1 Doodads
2 wahm unknown
3 hemp fitteds made my a wahm on mdc (newborns- but the rise was too tall for Angelo, so I will try as a small)
2 "small" Angel Luv which I used as newborn for Emilio, but were too big for Angelo at the time
1 small nanipoo
6 unknown prefold type fitteds
2 Sandis small (borrowed)
4 Molly togs or valor kids fitteds were Emilio's newborns
Various infant prefolds were Emilios pocket stuffers

Covers
2 bumpy night small prints (found IRL)
1 small dappi wrap (found IRL)
1 bumpy newborn (was too big for Angelo's newborn stuff found IRL)
2 nikky newborn (again too big found IRL)
3 Safety 1st pull ons (found IRL)
3 Indisposable pull ons (found IRL)
7 Alexis featherlite pull ons + one unopened bag (Found IRL)
3 pull on unknown (found IRL)
1 Wild ducks (may be a swim diaper?? found IRL)

1 prorap basic (found IRL)

You found that IRL???

Holy cow!

I think you have a very good, well-rounded stash!

I like variety!

 

[Pinoikoi]

I didn't find EVERYTHING IRL, just the ones I noted... but if I found diapers IRL, I bought them, regardless of size, because I figured I could use them someday, or lend them to friends. I didn't realize that I would need smalls so soon, so it probably was a good thing.

 

[Pinoikoi]

Because Angelo was so small, I had to divide up the diapers that fit, from the diapers that he would grow into, so I would really like some help here! Please check out all my IRL finds!

 

[Pinoikoi]

I would like some input, not just my own! Thanks.

So that's 21 AIOs
30 fitteds
33 covers
(I might have miscounted here or there, I scanned quickly, and I have major mommy brain as many here can attest. :LOL)

That sounds like plenty, but are they all different sizes? What do you have in nb and sm that he can wear now? Are some of them mediums or larges that you're saving for later? How big is he and how soon do you think he'll be in bigger sizes?

That's neat that you found a lot of stuff where you live!

What stores did you find it at or was it at garage sales?

 

[Pinoikoi]

This is just Angelo's "small" size stash. I have a lot of mediums left over from Emilio, in storage, though too. Angelo is a preemie, so he is wearing his newborn stash currently, but is growing, so I wanted feedback about what I ought to still buy for him. Most of the stuff I found IRL I found at second hand stores.

 

[todzwife]

Do the ones I made him fit yet?

 

[nicandboys]

That's cool, I would never find a cloth dipe at a resale shop here. Well, I would be surprised if I came across one!

That looks like plenty of smalls for Angelo. I don't know how you'll ever even use that many covers! The only thing I would be concerned with is you say your dh only uses velcro AIOs and I counted 13 velcro AIOs. That might be enough for one day but you'd have to wash each night when you're going to be at work.

Have fun with all that fluff!

Todzwife, NOt yet, I am sorry to say... I did list them here in his small sizes stash, though. He is lengthening everyday, but the Little Lamb newborn and FCB 0 I bought for him still fit around. He is just a tiny, tiny, little thing. I am preparing for a growth spurt soon, though! (as you can see!) I have actually met quite a few women lately that have had preemies, and they all tell me that preemies seem to take longer to grow than full term babies. I am not sure why. He still wears the newborn size clothes too, and not the 0-3 month size yet either, and he is over 1 month old already. If anyone else has clothed/diapered a preemie, I would like to hear their experience with this, too.

Nicandboys, most of the covers here I found IRL for like .25 each. I couldn't pass them up, when I found them... I was surprised once I started counting, though, just how many I had... maybe I will pass some on to my convert who is due in day- assuming Angelo is done with them by the time she needs them!

That doesn't surprise me though, I made them to fit DS and when I passed them to you, they still fit his 19 pound chubby frame
