It looked soooooooo easy. It looked easier than pockets. I'm glad I have decided to try these first and then experiment with pockets. I may not ever need pockets.....but i still might want them coz theyre cute!
did you use pockets from newborn? I think I will definately end up with pockets but I thought prefolds would be good for a newborn and then I can use them afterwards with my pockets if I need to. Sound logical????
a prefold is thicker and more absorbent than your old fashioned flats - which are great for pockets anyway. prefolds for a newborn would be great as you have to change them lots anyway. so absorbency isnt as much an issue. you can boost prefolds too tho - snazzipants doublers are great for this.
I use boosters in my pre-folds as well. It also provides a stay-dry layer which I like. But as gandt said with a newborn you change them so much anyway that absorbency's not such an issue.
Did you get a snappi to go with them? I found that so good for newborns. It keeps the nappy nice & snug around the legs & helps prevent any leakages.
I have one snappi....arent they magic! Only prob is, my "baby" doll from childhood is a bit too big for newborn size so I havent really been able to practice...might have to try teddy.
How many snappis do you think you would need? also I only have 4 covers....is that enough?
