LO's thighs started getting red marks around 20 months.<br /> - i find that they leak through the leg holes, but it may be a function of the inserts i use</p> <p>*Which inserts do you use?<br /> - homemade fleece inserts</p> <p>I personally wish i bought more of the BG Freetimes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1417845 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 12:29:25 +0000 LovelyPlum 1417845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: the 2-ply are also packs of 2, so 40? That is probably a bit much, but maybe I won't go all the way up to 40 if I don't get them all at the shower. 30 changes is a good number to shoot for, I think. I honestly have no idea how often a newborn gets changed, so I'm glad I wasn't far off :)</p> <p>Are you using these with baby #2? What did you do for your DD? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1417817 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 12:16:16 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1417817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: I don't think you have overshot. The Microfiber are 2 packs, so you have 20 of those, and then 10 of the 2ply. So a total of 30? </p> <p>I was figuring a diaper change every 2 hours, 12 per day. I would like to wash every other day and have enough for baby to wear something while I do laundry. So I was figuring around 30 changes for the newborn stage. That gets spaced out a lot when they are a bit older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1417788 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 12:07:30 +0000 LovelyPlum 1417788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OK, so it looks like I may have overshot on the inserts? </p> <p><a href="http://applecheeks.com/product-support/how-many-diapers/" rel="nofollow">http://applecheeks.com/product-support/how-many-diapers/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1417725 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 11:47:53 +0000 LovelyPlum 1417725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: I don't have them yet, but they are on my registry. I am going to try them with the baby right away, but we'll see how that goes. I found this blog post with a whole lot of newborn diaper reviews, and she seems to think that they'll work: <a href="http://change-diapers.com/2012/01/newborn-cloth-diapers-my-opinions-after-a-month/" rel="nofollow">http://change-diapers.com/2012/01/newborn-cloth-diapers-my-opinions-after-a-month/</a></p> <p>I'm not sure how many to get. I think I'm registered for 20, so that is where I figured we'd start. I also am shooting in the dark about how many inserts to get. I ended up registering for 10 of the 2-ply inserts (<a href="http://shopapplecheeks.com/shop/2-pli/" rel="nofollow">http://shopapplecheeks.com/shop/2-pli/</a>) and 10 of the microterry inserts (<a href="http://shopapplecheeks.com/shop/product.php?productid=22&#038;cat=4&#038;page=1" rel="nofollow">http://shopapplecheeks.com/shop/product.php?productid=22&#038;cat=4&#038;page=1</a>). I currently don't have any of the 3-ply inserts on my list (<a href="http://shopapplecheeks.com/shop/product.php?productid=26&#038;cat=4&#038;page=1" rel="nofollow">http://shopapplecheeks.com/shop/product.php?productid=26&#038;cat=4&#038;page=1</a>), but I'm wondering if I should?</p> <p>ETA: 10 packs, so 20 of each. I was basing that off of Mrs. Superhero's post: <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/11/05/how-to-choose-a-cloth-diapering-system/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/11/05/how-to-choose-a-cloth-diapering-system/</a>, but she only has 12 covers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1417671 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 11:34:12 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1417671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: Do you have any yet? Are you doing them as newborns as well? If so, how many did you get? Last question, what inserts are you going with? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1417662 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 11:32:35 +0000 LovelyPlum 1417662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: yep, this is what we're going with! I hope they work out :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1416252 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 20:12:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1416252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LovelyPlum: did you go with these? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/applecheeks-users-feedback-please#post-1129730 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 17:06:29 +0000 LovelyPlum 1129730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: thank you!
