We used cd's with C, but we did not start until he was about a year old. I want to start buying some diapers now to round out my collection. Which cd's were best for newborns? C was 8lb3oz when he was born--not sure if the next will be about the same weight or not [is that a heredity thing?]. Also, how many should I make sure to have on hand for a newborn?
We used Kisaaluv newborn fitted with prorap covers for both girls during the newborn stage. I think they wore them until they were about 12 lbs (can't remember exactly). I had 22 diapers and 6 covers.
if i were to go back and do it again, i'd use prefolds for NBs. i'd probably get some fitteds for overnight, but then just get 2 dozen prefolds and a few covers until the kiddo fits into the one-size.
I recommend a combo of fitteds and prefolds for newborns. Prefolds are so much cheaper and you need so many diapers that I think they're an ideal backup to fitteds. Of course, plenty of people use exclusively prefolds and love them from the start. It's up to you!!!

in fact, that IS what we'll be doing for our next
