What would you recommend buying? brand?
How many to start off? or must haves? ( to get started)

Re: Cloth Diapers
The best place to get advice is from the EFF board. They are amazing :-)
We use prefolds--I have 48--with 3 Thirsties covers.
I also have some g-diapers with cloth inserts (1 size small & 6 size med/large and 24 cloth inserts)
I also have 4 fuzzibunz with 20 cloth inserts--I'm not a huge fan of these though, because after each use the whole diaper needs to be washed, unlike with the g-diaper, you just wash the insert.
For fastening--I also use the snappi's--I have 6 of those. They are fantastic :-) No bloody fingers from those dumb pins.
LO is in a sposie at night time because he pees through the CD's. We use target up & up brand for bed/naps.

I am pretty new at this, but I also recommed talking to the eco friendly board. So far, I have 36 unbleached indian prefolds and 3 thirstie covers. I did order 3 more covers this weekend since I would like to have more on hand for him.
I have some gdiapers, but he is not big enough to try them out yet. So far, I have been doing laundry every other day and have not come close to running out. My husband is agreeable to the switch- we used disposables that people gave us until we ran out and then switched to cloth.
I also recommend watching some you tube videos to get an idea of what all is involved in changing them and different folds that can be used. It helped my H out a lot.
