I'm ready: Critique My Stash

mypalbabs

Baby is due in April.  We're team one and done, which is why I'm not investing in high-end AIOs.  Additionally, we have a front-loading HE washer, so I need a simple wash routine.

16 newborn fitteds

20 newborn prefolds

3 Snappis

4 diaper pins

6 newborn Rumparooz covers

3 newborn wool soakers

36 medium prefolds

8 Flip covers

36 flats

12 wool soakers

6 Alva pockets

36 cotton doublers

6 hemp doublers

6 bamboo doublers

6 microterry doublers

12 microfleece liners

1 roll disposable liners

45 flannels wipes

25 terry washcloth wipes

Nellie's soap

dryer balls

(I make the wool soakers myself, which is why I have so many)

For the newborn stage your stash looks great.

 As far as after that - you don't need 36 of any one diaper. 24 will be more than enough - of either prefolds, flats or a combo thereof.

The medium prefolds will probably be pretty bulky on your LO once they outgrow the newborn diapers - are you okay with that? You could always use the flats for the inbetween stage though. 

The amount of doublers is also waaaay too much - you'll never need all of them. You should only really need then for overnight (assuming your LO isn't a heavy wetter). I'd say 10 max is more than enough.

 Remember to get a couple wetbags and pail liners too.

I looks like you're pretty well covered. Depending on the size difference between your NB and medium prefolds, you may want some smalls for in between. I know with my GMDs there's a huge difference. Also, don't forget about wet bags. We have a couple small ones for in the diaper bag when we're out and about and two pail liners for at home.

Yeah, I may have ordered some, then ordered some more because I forgot I ordered the first batch...  

I'm hoping the flats will carry us through any discrepancy between prefold sizes.

(I over-ordered prefolds b/c I know we will use them for burp cloths and random other things.)

Thanks for taking a look.
