does anyone want to tell a dummy how to START CDing?

I have no experience with cloth... how do you start?  I assume you don't go out buying a ton until you find some you like?  Do you just buy a bunch and trial?

I was going to do disposables but am now considering cloth... no clue where to start (I have just read the basics)

    jilliansdrawers.com does a trial package. That way you can see what you like and you only pay for what you keep, I believe. The women on this board have SO many great resources. I wish I had some more links to give you but that's all I can think of.

    There is the standard folding cotton with covers of the past. But you are right, there are tons of new diapers out there. Basically there are a lot of "one size" diapers that fit a baby from ~10-35 lbs. So once baby is 8+ lbs, you have lots of neat options that will last you a while. Before that, there are newborn CD options.

    I would suggest doing a trial from Jillian's Drawers: https://www.jilliansdrawers.com/products/clothdiapers/tryclothfor10/tryclothfor10

    I personally have a mix of diapers: I like bumGenius all-in-ones (both deluxe and organic) for daytime use and bumGenius 3.0 one size or Blueberry one size at night. I have no experience CDing a newborn though. People seem to like Kissaluvs for newborns I think.

    Here is what I did:

    Walked in a CD store.

    Spent 700$ on diapers, a pail, wipes, soap, etc. ?

    Washed them.

    Put them on my kid. ?

    Easy :) ?I know most like to have different diapers, I'm happy with just my BGs. ??
