In one respect, I think I am ready for the new guy to come. I've finally built up a nice stash of cloth diapers. You may recall my attempts at cloth diapering Will, but it didn't really work out because it was too late in the game and I wasn't willing to invest a lot of money in a kid that was close to being potty-trained. But this time, I've been slowly stocking up, as my Etsy shop allows, to where I've got enough to make a confident start. Here's what I've got (so far--I can totally see how cloth diapering becomes a hobby!):
12 BumGenius 4.0 Pocket diapers
2 Flips with 6 liners
16 infant size prefolds (diaper service quality--I found 2nd hand when Will was a baby)
2 Thirsties Duo Wraps size 1 covers
2 covers I made (have you seen the Babyville Boutique stuff? Love!)
3 wet bags (also made)
2 diaper pail liners (Planet Wise in Owls and gray)
5 snappis
2 different kinds of cloth diaper laundry soaps
and 2 dozen cloth wipes
Here's Will. He just wanted his picture taken.
I left him at his friend's house today while I went to my Dr. appt.
I can't believe how sad I feel when he's not with me! I'm going to have serious issues when it's time for him to go to school...

Cute! I am excited for you and your cloth diaper adventure - it fits you so well!
Wow - good for you! I wish I had a way to get my stash to you. As much as I would like to have a need for them again, it's not looking likely at this point, and I'd rather give it all to a good home!
Did you know that they're teaching a PUL diaper cover making class at Joann right now? It amazes me how much more prevalent and accepted it is now.
wow! looks like you are ready. I have been cloth diapering with way way less than what you have...so I think you should be just fine:)
p.s.
I have that same duvet cover!
and why does Will look so grown up:(
I was just gonna say, 'Multiply that by 20 and you're ready to go!" But maybe Virginia knows best since it's been about 3 and half decades since I last cloth-diapered. Good thing you have another wee one to help when Will goes to school.
I'm so glad you're giving cloth another go! I'd make a few more covers to go with your pre-folds. I also suggest making or purchasing at least another half dozen pocket diapers. Good luck!
You go girl...I so want to do this again...I even told Lee we can use our tub as the soak tub as we don't use it very often anyway!!
