Oh very helpful, we usually start cloth at 4 months but this time we’re starting right away!

Great post…Thanks! Every question I had about cloth diapering a newborn has been answered!we didn’t use cloth on our first child until she was about 6 months, and still then it was part time. With our second I had three small pockets and two thirsties fitteds/one cover for the early days. This time I am ready…and you bet thirsties is part of that!

I so hope to be able to cloth diaper a newborn again. Thanks for all the reminders!

I am very interested in trying prefolds this time. Last time I only used aio’s and since they weren’t newborn they didn’t fit very well. I can’t wait to get more Thirsties covers

As my husband and I hopefully welcome a baby in 2013 (ttc now)ive been doing ALOT of research on cloth diapering and this was very helpful!

I may have to buy a few extra Snappis than I originally planned on. Knowing me I’ll misplace them or get them stuck to my clothes or something.

I have purchased the AIO diapers, ointment, liners and diaper sprayer for my daughter. She is ready to have the baby within a couple weeks.

Thank you for this post. My son is due in April, and I was very hesitant about using cloth diapers with a newborn. I still may wait a few days to get used to having a baby in the house and recover a bit, but I am excited to use cloth now…it doesn’t seem as intimidating now

Good tips, thanks! I started cloth diapering my first child at 17 months, so I’m going to feel like a newbie again the next time around!

Thanks ladies, I changed “several” fasteners to “a few”. I recommend having at least two or three, just in case one is lost or dirty. ~Sonya
