just trying to figure out my plan and path as we get ready for our baby!

 

can you use regular diapers that come through a diaper service with a thirsties cover? bum genius... maybe stuffing them?

any advice...as I can't tell which are more applicable for me.

 

Thanks!

    You can use any cover of your choice pretty much - and a thirsties cover would be an excellent choice.You can usually use them more than once before washing and they're pretty low maintenance. The only thing I don't like is the velcro because it's a pain in the wash - but it gives a great fit and is easy to put on. I'd check out the version 2 which recently came out. It looks like they've improved some things on it to make it even better! :)

    If you were going to stuff prefolds as inserts into BGs, then there wouldn't be much of a point in having a diaper service. You'd have to wash the BGs anyway, so why not just throw the prefolds in there as well? :)

    I know there is a diaper service (Modern Diaper Service) that serves the Baltimore/DC area- a friend of mine started out using cloth for her 1st son's  1st 2 months using Modern Diaper Service and really liked it- she just bought the used prefolds from the service at the end of 2 months.  She uses prowraps or litewraps over the prefolds- she bought them from Nikki's diapers.  Also I know she has some fitteds and BG's as well-- but she didn't start using those until she was done w/ the diaper service.
