Cloth nappy help

Posted September 7, 2007 at 9:23AM by mumstheword

All you cloth nappy lovers and users, can you tell me how you started collecting your stash? Did you get the nappies one-at-a-time or did you go out and buy a whole heap of different kinds and brands? Also did you buy them brand new or second hand first? I am wanting to actually start my stash  and I am lost as to how to go about it. It all seems so daunting to me.

By the way, I am buying them to tide me over just until I can get my snap press to make them myself so if you  were in my situation would you just buy cheap nappies from Ebay or would you still buy good quality nappies.

Another question (sorry), what are the best nappies for the cheapest price. We are currently a little shorter on funds than we used to be so we have to a bit tighter on our spending.

And another note, I am going to use and buy MCNs.

I bought mine all at once. I first bought one of a few different brands to try out and then decided on Fuzzi Bunz and bought a whole package of them. I wouldn't go the cheap route because you never know how long you are going to use them and also all the cheap route will get you is wet clothes and lots of leaks. Probably the lowest cost way is to buy prefolds and a cover but I personally feel FuzziBunz makes a great product and at a great price. They are so easy to use and work incredibly well.

  I love my job, it gives me a break from my kids!

Most of my fuzzy bunz where hand me downs & they work great. When they start to stink then I boil them and they work great. http://www.mybaby.com/PlaygroundItem/Item/1631/
I also ask my family for cloth diapers as gift when my son was born & for his b'day. I use disposables at nigtht and sometimes when we travel.

I bought mine from online stores. Imse Vimse,proraps with are cheap and good,and bummis. These are covers you use with prefolds. I read that you only need five. No way I have 15 covers which works good for me. Good luck and happy diapering!! PS
Get wool covers for at night!!
