What prefolds are the best?

I've been doing CD with my 2 year old DD very part time since January. We are having baby #3 soon and I'm looking at getting some smaller diapers for this LO. What prefolds do you prefer? I am ordering a Kissiluvs and Thirsties cover from Amazon just to see how I like them.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I've been using Flips with my DD and have loved them so far but wanted something a little different that I can use with a newborn until the Flips fit better. I tend to have smaller babies (both my DDs were 6 lbs 6 oz) and want something snug and comfy.

Thanks!!

We used osocozy but wish I would have used green mountain diaper prefolds now. They are so so soft and absorbant. Also would recommend Grovia cotton bamboo prefolds. They are more expensive though but very soft and extremely thin.

Imagine bamboo prefolds from Nickis Diapers.

If I could do it over again, I would skip the cotton prefolds and invest in some bamboo ones.

For a tiny nb I would get newborn size (not small) from GMD or Nicki's Diapers.

Also, I recommend getting a Bummis Super Brite instead of a Thirsties XS if you have small babies. DD was average size (7 lb 2 oz) and I felt the Thirsties XS was way too wide for her. The Super Brite has a trimmer cut and you'll probably be happier with it, though it won't fit quite as long.

GMD prefolds. Thirsties Velcro wears out fast! Bummis Super Brites have strong Velcro, but the fit is ok. I recently discovered Blueberry coveralls, thanks to this board. They are awesome! Cute prints, strong Velcro, and double leg gussets they're perfect! They make a NB size called minis...

Sorry this is late but thanks everyone!!! Your replies were super helpful and I'll be taking your advice on the prefolds and the Thirsties.
