Disposable Liners

Can you tell me about them? When do you use them? Are they necessary? Expensive?  Thanks.

I use the Bummis brand liners. They're kinda like a durable paper towel. I use them for when LO is at the babysitter, since she doesn't spray or plop. You don't need them untill your baby starts solids, because EBF/EFF poop is water soluble and washes out in your prerinse. Really, you don't need them after they start solids if you have a sprayer/scraper. They can be handy for if you're out and about, or like for us after sitting in a wet bag all day at the sitter's we don't have to spray out old poop but most people get by just fine without them.

ETA: They are called flushable liners, but most people agree not to flush as they can still wreak havoc on your plumbing.

I think I use the real nappies brand - I think they were about the cheapest I could find on Amazon.

I only use them because our daycare will only use cloth diapers if we provide disposable liners.  In talking with them, they send home the ones that have only been peed in, and I wash those with my diaper laundry.  They can be reused about 3 times reliably (but don't dry them!).  

It does save me from having to scrape/spray the daycare diapers, so it is kind of nice in that respect, but if I didn't have to spend the money on them I wouldn't.

So I use them for daycare only, definitely after solids have been started (though LO had already started solids when we started this daycare, so I don't know if they'd have required them earlier) - and they're not necessary, and don't *have* to be expensive.  Especially if you reuse them.

I just started using some for trips out and about with DD. I got nicki's (or imagine) brand ones. They aren't exceptionally soft but they're okay. They were a little under $3 and free shipping (with 5percent off code) for 50. I won't flush them at home but if I'm at a store or something I will.

We use disposable/flushable liners from time to time.  Before DD#2's poos were ploppable and we didn't have a sprayer we used them every change.  Now sometimes it's ploppable and sometimes it's not.  And we have a sprayer.  So I feel like it's a waste putting one in every change. I will throw one in when I can predict that she is going to poo (like after her nap).  Or if we are out and about and I can't spray.  But mostly if we don't have one in and she has a peanut-butter poo we just spray it.  So I think they are good to have on hand, but I think sprayers are still a necessity.  I use g Diapers liners because they are easy for me to pick up from Babies R Us.  They aren't particularly soft but they don't bunch up and flush just fine for me.  They are $7.99 for a box of 105.
