mommamorton: Considering switching to cloth diapers. You mommas that use them wanna help me out?...

mommamorton:

Considering switching to cloth diapers. You mommas that use them wanna help me out? Best brands? Explain the different type of cloth diapers? Best detergent to use? How to avoid awful smells? How many do I need?

All in ones are basically like disposables, you just put them on and go. Pockets are a diaper with a water-proof outside and thin soft material on the inside that makes a pocket, that you stuff with inserts to adjust absorbency. Fitteds are also put on like a disposable, but need a waterproof cover over them. One size diapers have adjustable elastic in the legs and several rows of snaps on the outside to change the size to go from newborn to toddler. Sized diapers are less adjustable but tend to fit better and be slimmer.

I like my Thirsties sized all-in-ones and my Charlie Banana One Size Pockets.

I also have Charlie Banana Sized Pocket diapers but they don’t hold as much because I can’t get the legs tight enough without squeezing her too tight around the waist. They’re slimmer though so I like them fine for daytime use when she gets changed more often.

I use Kissaluvs fitteds, Bumkins fitted, and gerber prefolds and prefolds I stole from the hospital (lol) with bumkin and thirsties covers for overnights. They’re VERY bulky on a newborn so they’re strictly overnights or saved for her to wear on laundry day. I also have Best Bottoms that I really like, they’re not bulky but I just don’t like covers for day use. The inserts snap into the cover so they’re kind of cool.

I have about 20 prefolds, 2 kissaluv fitted, a bumkin fitted, a thirsties cover, bumkins cover, Best Bottoms cover with one insert and one doubler, 6 Charlie Banana XS sized, 15 Charlie Banana OS, and 2 Thirsties size 1 aio. I have to wash diapers every like 3 days or so.

I use Charlie’s Soap. One cold wash with a second rinse, one colors/cold wash with a second rinse. I prefer to line dry them, m y Thirsties AIO tend to stain but the sun bleaches them out. You can dry them in the drier too but it shortens their lifespan.
