I have put together some packages that will show you what you will need to start cloth diapering – including the accessories. When you are first starting off, it is difficult to know what you will need. The diapers in the packages are enough to last two days between washings.
Thirsties Duo Diaper is a pocket, or sleeve diaper. A two-piece insert comes with the diaper, which you stuff into the sleeve, and it will agitate out in the washer. You may add a Hemp Insert into the sleeve if additional absorbency is needed.
I have made two charts. One for size 1 and one for size 2. You will not buy both at the same time. The warranty for your diapers starts from the day of purchase, so only purchase the diapers that your baby can wear now.

Please choose from the two charts depending on what size your baby is. Weight and age recommendations are general, so please take a look at our sizing chart for your baby’s measurements.

I love seeing organized charts breaking down cost. Super handy. Thank you!
Thanks for the tips. I LOVE the duo diaper system.
thank you for the tips!!!
Oh, thank you so much. I am still trying to figure all of this out before I need these in December
great tips!
Great information!
I love this chart! It lays out everything so well on how to start building a stash. Wish I had found this sooner!
I love this post. I’m due in December and plan on using cloth, but all the information can be overwelming! This really breaks it down and makes it easier.
Such great info! I just discovered Thirsties and LOVE LOVE LOVE them!!!
Thanks for the info. We are building our stash and it is nice to have a guide to work with.
Thank you for the info. My cousin is trying to build a stash and I think this would be so helpful with the cost breakdown and everything. Definitely will come in handy!!
This is super useful. Although, i guess you also need detergent for your diapers.
So glad to see such a great breakdown of the cloth diapering system! I work with expecting mommas on a daily basis and will definitely refer back to your website for cloth diapering information! Thank you again for your passion in teaching our mommies-to-be!
