Cloth Checklist
Deciding to make the switch from disposables to cloth is only the start. Now you need to decide on what all you need. That is why we have put together this list of recommended supplies to make your cloth diaper life much simpler. Please remember that these are only recommendations. You can start with less and add to your stash or you can get it all in one shot. There are a lot of moms that are successfully cloth diapering with out all the extras, but they are handy to have around.
Check list:
Minimum of 18-24 diapers in each size
6-8 covers for newborn/infants, 4-6 covers for larger sizes (if using covers)
20-26 inserts, including extras for more overnight absorbency (if using pocket diapers)
5 doublers for overnight or extended use. May need more for heavy wetters, depending on diapering system.
Diaper pail
2 diaper pail liners (one for use while the other is in the wash)
1-2 Snappi diaper fasteners or 4 safety pins (necessary only for diapering systems requiring fasteners such as prefolds)
2 wet bags (one for use while the other is in the wash)
2 dozen (or more--you can never have enough as you will likely find yourself using them for everything!) cloth wipes
Disposable liners (optional but great for transitioning into cloth diapers, protecting you diapers and makes for easy clean up)
Small squirt bottle (for changes outside the house)
Wipes Warmer (Optional) |
