Cloth Diapering

New to CD

Hi CD mamas,

 I'm Courtney, mom to 10 week old Gianna. DH and I are thinking about taking the plunge and CDing. We've been using disposables up until this point because DH wasn't convinced about CDing at first.

 I know very little about CDing and I was wondering if you ladies could answer a few questions for me

1) what was your start-up cost? 2) How many CDs do you have and how often do you do diaper laundry? 3) Pre-folds or inserts? What is your preference and why? 4) What is in your stash? What do you like/not like about your brands?? 5) Leaks? Blowouts?

 I really appreciate it! This whole research process is overwhelming.

 

Also, I have a friend who uses GMD prefolds? Anyone use them?

Me: 28, DH: 33
Married 10.12.11
 BFP #1: 5.30.12- Giannna, born 1.27.13
BFP #2: 9.18.14- due 6.1.15 -- natural m/c @ 5w6d 
BFP #3 11.2.14- due 7.16.14 -- mmc, d&c @ 10w1d

    I have way more than is needed for one baby (42). We do
