Cloth Diapering

Starting my stash, is this a good idea?

Hi ladies, I'm excited to start my CD stash.  I saw this package deal online:

https://www.theluvyourbaby.com/newborn-eco-friendly-promotion-12-pack-little-green-baby-bamboo-1-free/  

and I'm wondering if this is a good place to start.  It may be a little early, but this seemed like a good deal.  I'd like to stick to natural and if possible organic materials.  I don't want to get just one style, and I plan on getting about 24 for the newborn stage, so the other half of my stash I'm going to try and keep it a variety. 

Does this seem like a good start, or is it foolish to get so many of the same style before finding what I like?  I think the appeal of these are that DH would do it without much fuss as he's not totally on board with CDing yet.

Thanks!

  • I don't know about the newborn ones, but I love my Kawaii one size. I think it's a great deal.

  • Personally just get some prefolds and covers for the NB stage or rent some NB diapers from somewhere b/c babies grow so fast.  The OS daipers start fitting most babies at 8lbs are a better deal for the pocket book.  It says these diapers are good 6 ? 20 pounds all 3 of my LO?s would have out grown these diapers by 5 or 6 months. 

    I rented my NB size AIO?s from cutiepoops.com (she will return from her maternity leave soon)

  • When I started CDs, I bought a snazzy minky package similar to the one you are considering.  I love them.  I do see pp's point about newborn diapers, but I didn't switch to cloth until my DD was almost a year, so I have no experience.  My son would have out grown those around 9 months, but my daughter is 15 months and just now 20 pounds.  

    Maybe get that pack and then some prefolds and covers to round out your newborn stash?? 

  • I have one of these that I got free in another package I bought, I really like the concept but they are so small that they are hard to stuff. Also, my son seems to feel more wet in these and we tend to have leaks if he wears it for more than one hour. He is only 12lbs and they just seem to small in the crotch and not absorbent enough even with both inserts. I will say that I would probably buy these  https://www.theluvyourbaby.com/pure-natural-0-15-months/ because the microfiber by Kawaii are super absorbent. I have Kawaii, Flips and BG2.0 and my Kawaii's are my favorite.
