Help me complete my stash!

Okay, so far this is what I have

-5 gDiapers (not loving the fit, might sell)

-6 BG OS

-5 FB OS

-1 Thirsties Duo OS cover (just bought today to try and I'm not sure his legs are chubby enough yet)

-18 hemp inserts

- 6 BG inserts

-6 BG newborn inserts for doubling up

So far I really like the BG and I know they're having a sale right now, but I'm not sure that I want to put all of my eggs in one basket. I just ordered the FB today, but the one I tried I really liked. Not loving the gDiapers, will probably sell those. What would you buy to complete my stash? Thanks!

    I personally love fitteds so I'd get a few of those to try out.  Plus they are killer cute.

    I'm partial to MonkeySnuggles or GoodMamas.  But I wouldn't buy the GMs from the actual GM site.   I'd get them from Spots or from someone I knew who was selling them.

    Oh...and MS has awesome wool.  The shorties (2nd pic from right) that are on the main page are the same as the ones I bought from her.  LOVE them.

    Yeah, I'd get some fitteds to throw in there. We liked pockets, but I'm glad we didn't have a whole stash of them. And I think you're making the right decision in not getting too many BGs; I definitely would NOT build a stash out of them. We liked them at first and then ended up hating them. Are you open to prefolds? They're a great (and inexpensive) way to beef up your stash. When we started nearly 2 years ago, we had 1/2 prefolds and covers and 1/2 pockets and then a year later switched to 3/4 fitteds and 1/4 pockets. That's pretty much where we were until DD PLd. You'll figure out what you like/don't like and what works for your baby. That's the great thing about cloth; being able to sell what doesn't work for you!

    When you say "prefolds", what do you mean? Sorry I'm new to all of this CDing stuff. Is that when you use a prefolded CD or an insert and cover it with a Thirstie thing?

    Ditto. We loved our GMD pfs. We started with the medium browns (which are smaller than I think they are now?) when DD was 5 months old. She was able to wear them all the way through PLing :) I've got 5 left that I need to get rid of, if anyone is interested :)

    Get a few fitteds and prefolds (and don't forget the covers - I love Thirsties Duo covers - and Snappis for the pfs).  My favorite fitteds are Bububebes (B4).  You can find them on hyenacart.  They are a bit pricey new (I bought both mine used on Spots Corner) but I loooooove them.
