How old is your LO and how often do you change them when wearing CD?
For those that are part-time or have used disposables in the past, do you find you go longer between changes with disposables vs. cloth?
Does it depend on what type of cloth they're wearing (prefolds & covers vs. AIO or pockets)?
Just been wondering how we compare

Every 3 hours unless I smell poop! I use AIO and pockets.
My LOs are 6 & 22 months.

DS is 5 months old, and wears either pockets or All in 2s, and I change him every two hours unless I hear him poop - I get those off immediately. At night, I double stuff his pockets and line them with a fleece doubler. I usually change him once at night.

Every three hours unless I hear/smell her poop. She goes all night though (she never poops at night).
She's seven months and we use BG Freetimes.

16 months and 2-3 hours. disposable hold more and could go longer so we use them at night!

We can go longer in cloth, it seems. Disposables smell more (ie the pee smells intensely right away, with cloth we don't notice it). We go about 3 hours. Sometimes 4, though. We use Freetimes

If no poop, we always did every 2 hours during daytime hours for C when under 1 year old and every 3 years during daytime hours over 1 year old.

Same as above, every 3 hours unless I smell poop.
We've used disposables on a few trips and always change more often in them for the same reason as @blackbird: they get so smelly when wet so we change them immediately. LO is 7 months and we use BG freetimes.

Every 2-3 hours. We use disposables at night and out of the house. We can go longer in disposables and I double stuff the cloth.

2-3 hours for us, too, in gDiapers.
And of course as soon as there's poop, or after any potty trip.
12 hours overnight but with fleece to reduce "wetness" against the skin, and a bigger/thicker diaper with a wool cover.
