Just jumping in here to add my 2 cents worth lol
Im only 6 months preggers and so havnt even USED cloth nappies yet haha! But am obviously planning to. and...
I have spent 6 months researching... sometimes HOURS a day, prices, styles, Brands etc
And I decided to go with Itti Bitti's.
* Many reasons, mainly being that over all after trawling thru pages and pages of product reviews, by actual mums in NZ and Australia, they came out on top. Also I have found that even 2nd hand they are the top seller on Trade me, so paying $27 ish per nappie new doesnt seem so bad when u think even after 1 or 2 kids you might get $10-$15 for it, and lastly they are quite Dad & grandparent friendly with colour coded snaps and no pocket stuffing required!
We have gone with SIO's small and Med, and will probably move to Tutto's when we get to large.
Some advice I wished someone had given me.
If you are on Facebook, "like" every cloth nappy group you can find (there are about 10!) Its the best place to hear about sales and discounts on top brand nappies.
You can combine MCN's with prefolds (especially early on with a newborn going thru 10-12 changes a day), using the itti bitti outter as the water proof wrap (just pull out all the snap in inserts), prefolds are cheap as chips and will extend your stash for not too much $$$
I know everyone has differing opinions, and im not here to bag other brands or options, hell I might be back here in 6 months time regretting every itti I ever brought! This is just what I know and would like to share with you
