Are you willing to try all in ones? we use Freetime all in one diapers by Bum genius, so we dont need covers plus inserts plus prefolds.

Planet wise makes great wet bags, I like theirs a lot and we just bought a large step trash can from walmart and thats what we use as our cloth diaper pail. we also just used seventh generation detergent. WIth regards to diaper creams not all of them are safe for cloth diapers. we currently use earth mama angel baby bottom balm

You should be fine with any medium sizes, since you have the One-Size Diapers.
You should keep in mind that, if you are cloth diapering in the first few weeks you will need to change the baby up to 16 times a day.
We used the FuzziBunz AIO, but they were way too big when DS was first born.
I would imagine your small size and maybe the Bum Genius 4.0's will work the first few weeks. However if you are going to change about 16 diapers a day, you may not have enough to get you through the first few weeks, unless you want to do laundry every day.
We wound up using disposables the first few weeks because of this and also the first week or so the baby can have meconium poop, which tends to leave impossible stains in your cloth diapers.
You may want to try several different brands before sticking with one. What works for one baby may not work as well for another.

If you plan to CD from the beginning and end up with a medium sized or smaller baby you might find that what you have will be too big at first, causing leaks. You might want to try getting a couple of covers (like bummis or thirsties) and some inserts.

Thirsties are good because they have a 2 size system and the size 1s will get as small as sized newborn diapers, but will last longer. Bummis are sized, but I inexpensively priced.

With both of those you can either get inserts or prefolds and just lay them in the cover.

@beebug I am pregnant now but have done a tonnn of reading and research. I'd suggest searching Facebook for your local area to see if they have a cloth diaper group? I've enjoyed mine & diaperswappers.com

I've read Planetwise is best for wet bags, as someone else said above. Nicki's Diapers has them on sale right now - and if you're getting other things you can get the free gift, and look to see if they have any other coupon codes.

I've read great things, and bought, Earth mama angel baby balm and/or coconut oil.

I can't comment on sizing etc. -I am doing newborn prefolds & covers and then all one-size. I've read between 24-30 newborn prefolds, and then fewer as they get older.

One thing I've read a lot is some babies react poorly to microfiber - so I made sure to get some all cotton AIOs so we can try both.

Also google DIY diaper sprayer -that is what we plan to do!

We ended up using baby wash cloths as wipes. I bought some real wipes but the wash cloths are cheaper and work the same.

We use a cheap diaper pail and it works great, you can also get a cloth pail liner to put in it and you just throw it in the wash with the diapers, so you want to buy two so you'll always have one in the diaper pail.

I've tried a lot of diaper creams and haven't had success with any. I switched detergents and then LO's diaper rash cleared up though..... so I'm hoping that stays.

You've had good advice so far.

I'd also add tiny spray bottles of water so you can wet the bum or the cloth wipes if needed. You can either use water, or make your own bum-wash solution....or you can splurge (as I have) on a pre-made solution. As soon as I got the spray bottle thing going on, I loved cloth wipes.

I agree with @Coco Bee BG 4.0 are one of our favorites. We weren't really happy with Fuzzibunz. We also like our Charlie Banana pockets (similar to FB but IMO nicer). I'm not a huge fan of the inserts though (they haven't held up well for us compared to other brand inserts like Thirsties and GroVia).

I would say 18 is a good amount to get started with. You may want to think about some night time options because BG never worked for us at night. I love Thirsties or GroVia Hybrid/AI2 for at night.

Also, we are getting by without a sprayer and just use liners. Anything that gets on the diaper we dump in the toilet or use a spatula to scrape off.
