Ok, here's my list
15x Bumgenius
2x Foxybots (1x small 1x medium)
2x D'lish (+ 1x extra insert)
1x Honeychild (small)
1x Bubblebubs (small)
4x Bamboozles (fitted)
4x Totsbots covers (3x small 1x medium)
6X Prefolds
and I had a Little Buttons Pop Nap in my hands today but sadly had to send it back as was missing a popper (hopefully not too far away) and another large cover on oreder as smalls no longer fit and getting sick of only having one.
Oh and a stack of different sized soaker my mum knitted.
Not too bad, considering Rohann only 3 months old!

That's a great selection for a little one! What's the small HC like? I've only ever used them in large but I find them really reliable and the insert is more absorbent than other standard mf inserts I've tried.

Sorry ladies, I just don't get it! They're cute and all, but they hold in pee and poo lol
So I have 15 BG (4 white, 5 green, 4 yellow and 1 blue (only one though as the next one will be a GIRL!)
Mind you, I'm into cloth cos we don't have to spend heaps on sposies, no other reason. Maybe if I had the cash I'd order a few cool ones...

Exactly!!! If you're having to deal with pee & poo all day the equiptment might as well be cute!!
Also, in regards to the cost - I have a nice selection of (what I think are) gorgeous nappies and I've still saved HEAPS on disposables. My medium set cost me 5mths worth of disposables - which we were able to wear for a year. I then sold them on and got back 75% of what I paid, to go towards my large set! So all in all, a huge saving, and I LOVE my nappies - not many people could say that about disposables

I do it mostly for the environment factor, though cost helps too.... but I'm not really all *that* worried if it costs as much as disposables.
ETA: besides, if I can convince myself that buying cute nappies is a treat, then I won't end up spending money on chocolate etc instead.

I think it's fair to say that I've saved nothing by going cloth lol! But I do hold out hope of getting a bit back for them when I sell them. Just think, when baby is TTed I'll have an entire stash to get rid of!

Vic I really like the fit and everything of the HC, and insert is great, but to be honest I've been meaning to get in contact with HC as the poppers are kinda useless, they just pop back open as soon as snapped down - but it's one of those things that has been on my 'to do list' for ages and hasn't managed to happen Though apart from that it I think it would be a really good nappy.
The main reasons we went cloth was the cost ('cos even with buying new nappies - I figure I'm still gonna be saving money, esp as I started out straight away with my first, although I'm not sure how 'tidy' the BG's will be for no.2). Secondly the chemicals etc that are in diposables really didn't appeal to me. I don't understand why if they can't use them sanitary pads they can use them in nappies - makes no sense, plus DH suffered quite badly from excema and sensitive skin and I knew there would be a chance our baby would too (she does), and peferred cloth for this.
