I just didn't want to spend a lot on something we will only use for a few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788788 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 09:07:01 +0000 avivoca 1788788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Thirsties covers and H can still fit in her size ones at nearly 10 months old. I have a size 2 cover and while it is a little big, she'll be able to wear it until she's potty-trained. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788776 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 09:04:20 +0000 Cole 1788776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: perfect! Thanks!<br /> @grizz: Thanks! I have a few of the flips and I wasn't sure if I should stick with those or throw something else into the mix. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788766 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 09:00:49 +0000 autumnlove 1788766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: I would hold off on the Size 2s until you need them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788757 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 08:58:26 +0000 Cole 1788757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I have heard great things about the Thirsties, would you still get a couple of size ones and then a few size twos if you were doing the newborn AIOs and already had some flip covers? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788751 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 08:56:18 +0000 Boheme 1788751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about Flips? I think they would be a great one-size option for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788745 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 08:52:50 +0000 autumnlove 1788745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The newborn BGs stopped working for my LOs around 10lbs. You can use a Flip cover with flats or prefolds. They are one size:</p> <p><a href="http://www.cottonbabies.com/product_info.php?products_id=2220" rel="nofollow">http://www.cottonbabies.com/product_info.php?products_id=2220</a></p> <p>I liked Thirsties covers better during our pre-solid food days.....they have leg gussets and they do a better job of containing liquidy poop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cloth-diaper-size-question#post-1788731 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 08:45:22 +0000 Cole 1788731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are doing a cloth diaper rental of Bum Genius newborn aio's for 6 weeks with the option of extending on a week to week basis. They are supposed to fit up to 12 pounds.</p> <p>I am registering for a handful of covers to use with prefolds after we are done with the rental. I have three flip covers with aplix so I wanted to grab a few snap covers. I initially was going to go with Thirsties but the size ones are up to 18 pounds and it sort of seems silly to get those when it only gives me 6 more pounds before switching again. </p> <p>Any suggestions? I like the idea of prefolds with covers that are wipeable. As of now the plan is to do mostly prefolds or flats and covers with a handful of aio's thrown in. I was going to wait on the aio's until after we finish with the newborn rental and start the prefolds to see how we are doing. </p>
