@cyndistar3: I don't think I spent that much either, I do think it was cheaper b/c I bought in bulk.
I think 30 is a good number for me, but if we had a couple less we would be fine. Now I do a wash every other day and always have some left over, I'm never worried that she's not going to have a diaper. Plus, the more you have the less wear they get.
-
@artbee: good points! What is the difference between the elementals and the 4.0? Have you used both?
-
@cyndistar3: Also, if you cloth diaper it's also easy to transition to cloth wipes, which saves money. I just use baby wash cloths and spray her tush with water. Unless it's a poo, then I use normal wipes. I'm like you, I don't want to deal with the poo.
-
@cyndistar3: I only use elemental. I don't think 4.0 are all in one, so you'd be dealing with inserts and such. But I'm not 100% on that.
-
@artbee: I guess I will just have to bring it up with my husband lol... I don't know how he feels about dropping $750 on diapers at one time haha. I definitely think I would prefer all in ones... seems a lot easier. Also, where do you get your liners?
-
I spent a lot less on diapers though I have a variety of diapers, and there's plus and minus to having a variety. But if you've got time you can wait for a good sale and you can get diapers for substantially cheaper.
-
@Maysprout: Is it bad to buy diapers off amazon? I was just looking and they were quite a bit cheaper there.
-
@cyndistar3: I bought some of mine off of there when they had % off discounts. There might be some discount for buying off of amazonmom. They don't have all the brands though, like no bumgenius. The cloth diaper board on babycenter is usually all over sales. Also babydealsdujour.com is a list of sales and sometimes has cloth diapers. On zulily right now there are fuzzibunz (unless theyre all sold out) and you can buy a coupon for zulily off of plum district andget even more of a discount. Also look into buying seconds, there's usually only a tiny mark on them, they're new but discounted because of a small cosmetic flaw.

@Maysprout: Well I found a 24 pack of bumgenius elemental diapers for $490 opposed to the $600 it would cost for 24 on thegreennursery.com
-
@cyndistar3: I think it's great to buy from amazon! You get the same diapers, might as well save some money on them.
-
@artbee: Yea, I am a big fan of Amazon
What kind of liners do you get and where do you get them?
-
@cyndistar3: Oh nice, I guess they have them now. Maybe they did before too and I just missed them. If you want to get them off of amazon for cheaper you can always do the swagsbucks tool bar. You just use it instead of google for searches and it gives you points which you can use to redeem dollars at amazon. It's a bit annoying to use though.

@cyndistar3: I get them on amazon. Bumkins Flushable Diaper Liner

@artbee: Thanks
I am definitely going to try to convince the husband that it is a good idea lol
-
@cyndistar3: awesome! I really don't think you'll regret it, I love our cloth diapers!
-
@cyndistar3: It looks like you got most of your questions answered, but if you have any more feel free to ask! I really love to CD & have tried LOTS of brands, accessories, etc
Careful though, cloth diapering can get addicting!!
-
@sulli301: I agree! I'm always sad when they come out with cute new colors because my husband will kill me if I buy anymore! But I'm still finding other cloth things to try. My newest is wipes and so far I love it, wish I started months ago!
What kind of liners do you get and where do you get them?
