I see you on the CD board often and your CD selections look like the same things I am interested in.  Do you mind telling me what your stash looks like?

    Absolutely!!

    What I have so far is:

    14 BumGenius 4.0s (all snaps)

    1 Blueberry O/S

    1 Swaddlebees O/S Simplex in Owls

    3 Tots Bots (I will be getting the London Print too when it becomes avaiilable)

    2 Charlie Bananas (I chose this because I know people LOVE Fuzzibunz and they irritate me beyond just because there's this huge open flap at the back so CB has a front flap and I love the colours)

    2 Planetwise Pail Liners

    about 30 cloth wipes (some I have loved and will buy again and some I wish I didn't buy - all from Etsy so if you want recs let me know)

     

    What I'm buying this week (A/S on Monday so I want to get some gender specific colours):

    BG Elemental (I have heard great things about it)

    1 or 2 more Simplex O/S diapers as I know they RAVE about this on the CD board

    Best Bottom Shell and some Liners (I just want to try it and if anything have it as a backup diaper) 

    If you any questions let me know. I spend my spare time doing a ton of research because I'm cheap and want my dollar to go to something I'm going to love. I find the CD board a little slow at times. So let me know if theres anything else I can answer for you!!

  • Thanks!  All I have so far are 7 BG snaps in neutral colors.  I want to wait until my a/s to buy the rest so I know what colors/patterns to buy.  I didn't CD DS, but I really want to do it this time.

    I have plans to buy some more BG so that most of the stuff I send to daycare will all be the same for their ease.  I also want to try some other kinds, so I'm planning a few each of Oh Katy, Swaddlebees OS, TotsBots, Rumparooz, Kawaii, BabyKicks, and Fuzzibunz.

    I also have a list of some other non-pocket/AIO options, like some fitteds, flip covers, and a few prefolds, along with the other needed accessories.

    I'm still not sold on the idea of cloth wipes.  I might change my mind eventually, but that is just a little over my gross threshold at this point.

    I'm sure I'll message you again about my questions at some point!

  • I threw my 2 cents in about your diaper bag.  Did you decide what to get?

    I forgot to mention I have two Kawaii Heavy Wetters! I'm impressed with them especially for the price.

    I did cloth diaper DS for some time and will say that for me it was a PITA using disposable wipes - two containers for dirty things and it was hard to keep up.

    Based on reviews I might get a Grovia instead of the Best Bottom (as a backup dipe).

    I think I might try some Rumparooz too! Also, Oh Katy announced this week that they're done making diapers - she wants to be a Mommy full time so if you plan to buy them you have to put an order in before August 15th! :)

    The diaper bag I decided on is the Ju Ju Be Be Prepared. I went in to the look at the BFF and was shocked at how small it was for what i need. After seeing the Be Prepared I know it's the one for me!

    Definitely msg away. I check the bump tons - esp the BMB. Esp after DS goes down at 7. So just give a "call out" like you did and I'm happy to answer! :)

  • Sadly, other than seeing a healthy baby, I'm most looking forward to the a/s so that I can do some shopping!

  • Butting in but we have almost all kawaiis and I love them!  We initially started with GroVia and I destashed all of those because I didn't like how the inner liners got SO and stiff and seemed like they would be really uncomfortable on his bum. Also, until we got a sprayer, the GroVia diapers were really hard to get clean to get the poo out of all the nooks and crannies and folds etc.

  • Peony!  You're welcome to butt in any time :)

    Which kind of Kawaiis do you have or like best?

     

    Also, I couldn't resist and ended up just ordering some Oh Katys this morning.  I figure I could use some more gender neutral colors anyway.

  • But in Peony!!! I have to say I was really impressed with the Kawaii Heavy Wetters!! I will be getting a few more but kind of would like more designs...

    So glad you could take advantage of Oh Katy before they're gone! It's not one I have but have been tempted.

    Thnanks Peony re: Grovia. I want a hybrid system. I was looking at Flip, Best Bottoms or Grovia. Just to keep one shell and a few liners one hand as a back up. I was leaning towards Grovia or Best Bottoms. I don't like that Flip doesn't have a snap to keep the liner in place.

    We have almost 20 hd2's and goodnight heavy Wetters. The heavy Wetters are snaps, but the hd2's are velcro. We've used them pretty intensely and only one diaper so far has had Velcro issues- which is the main complaint. However, the problem isn't that the Velcro doesn't work anymore- it works really well, I just need to re sew part of it that has pulled away from the diaper. They get an a+ from me for ease of use, durability, and cost.
