    Yes, we do. We use bumgenius pockets and aio's. Alex and Julie share them now :-)

    I've never tried G diapers mostly because they seem to get a lot of negative reviews, but I've been very happy with my Bumgenius 4.0 pockets and Elementals. The only think that I haven't liked about Bumgenius is their velcro. It wears out really fast, so I'd definitely recommend using snaps if you decide to go with BG's.

    Ok great. Also how many should we stock up on if we do decide to go the CD route?

    Yes, definitely snaps! I started with velcro and quickly realized that it's not going to hold up very well. So I sold all of them and rebuilt my stash with snaps. 

    I had Julie in disposables until she could fit into our one size diapers, around 9 lbs. We use about 6-7 diapers per day and disposables at night (I don't want to mess around with snaps in the dark). So if you wash daily, you won't need more than 10-12. When it was only Alex, I washed every other day and our stash has about 25 diapers. Now that they share them, I wash daily.

    24 is a good number if you want to wash every other day. You shouldn't go much longer than that between washes. I have 2 in cloth and they each have their own stash so I have a pretty sizable number of diapers. I keep buying and selling them so I've lost track of how many, exactly.
