Another cloth diaper mama! I CDd my daughter and am now cding my son who is 10 months old. I'm going to check out the diapers you posted. I've mostly purchased mine off of FSOT of various diaper boards.
I've been using cloth with my son since he was 6 months old (now 27 months) and will be using cloth diapers with my daughter when she is born in Sept.
With ds we started with prefolds and covers but have since gone through a fitted/cover stage and we are currently feeling the pocket love. All in ones are great too they just seem to take forever to dry so we prefer pockets. I purchased most of his diapers (besides the prefolds and covers we started with) used on fsot.
I was able to get about 15 small bumGenius aio and a few xs brand new during the promo that just ended at the end of May. I also have been picking up pockets here and there from the fsot. We will probably stick to pockets with her but we are doing prefolds/covers for the newborn stage until the small and one size diapers fit her.
I have tried the Kawaii bamboo minky and the Pure & Natural (0-15 month/6-22lb) diapers on my son (25 lbs and 35"). I have NO complaints. I wash and dry the inserts but air dry to pockets to keep the elastic and velcro in good condition. I use only one insert to cut back on the bulk and we have never had a leak. After about 6 weeks of use, no signs of wear. I would totally recommend them. As a matter of fact, I am going to be buying more as soon as I buy other baby items that we NEED.
We have also tried Joejoewai diapers which are almost exact as the minky Kawaiis, many people think they are made in the same factory. They are a bit more convienent because you can buy 2 or 4 at a time and still get free shipping. I think 2 cost $15.55. For 2 pocket diapers, you CAN NOT beat that. We purchased just one to try and it is my sons favorite diaper, hands down. He always wants his cow diaper. =) I also plan to buy a few of these for baby #2.
