Another Stash Review Please

MapleMomma · December 2014

Hey ladies! I thought I'd come back to have you review my updated stash. Many of you suggested adding more to the NB stage. While some of you suggested prefolds and flats, with a lot of reviews I really thought DH would do better with pockets (even if they are a PITA for me to stuff during the NB stage )

So- I started with 12 grovia AIO newborns
I added 30 newborn Alvas with charcoal bamboo inserts (30). I've read these run smaller, and I'm not sure I really need 30, but I got a killer deal and will likely sell some of them later. (20 H&L, 10 snap)
Then I got 10 newborn blueberry swadlebees with 16 inserts. (I thought these might last longer than the alvas size wise)

And of course I still have 12 grovia hybrids (24 inserts, and 4 extra heavy doublers)
13 fuzzibunz and idk how many inserts (at least 20)
3 sunbabies with 6 inserts
1 rumparooz with 2 inserts
A roll if disposable liners

100 double flannel wipes
2 pul pail liners
2 large wet bags
1 small wet bags

I need I think at least 2 more small/medium wet bags, but I have registered for several and am hoping for them for my shower.

Is this a better stash? Thanks for reading and helping!

Okay, so for your newborn only stash, you have 52 diapers? Yep, I'd say you are good to go. Have you thought about your detergent? Do you have CD safe cream?

I think you have plenty of diapers, the only thing I have to say is that it wouldn't hurt to include a few flats, prefolds or fitteds in the mix. Because it can be very hard to predict what will work for you in those early days.

I know! Its a bit obnoxious! But I scored a great deal on eBay, and plan to see what I like and sell the rest after. Also, we plan to have at least 3 more kids after this one.

And I've got the detergent and cream taken care of. Made my own after a ton of cd safe research

I registered for quite a few newborn size and small. Our shower is in January and I thought maybe that would be something others might pick up as gifts. Vs large expensive sets of cds.

Oh I wasn't judging one bit, haha! I meant that as a high five. But I wouldn't buy more until LO is here. You might decide you love one type and hate another, and want to buy more of that one and trade or sell the others.

@TJ1979‌ Thanks! I appreciate all the advice. I can see how cloth becomes an addiction!
