Thats heaps! For one baby they recommend 12 if you wash every day, and maybe a couple spare.
I have 8 HH plain colors, 6 Fuzzibuns, 8 Ecobubs wool pockets, 8 Peapods, 6 Berry Plush, 2 Drybees, 2 Monkeydoodlez, 2 Dora AIOs (from TM), 3 HH prints, 4 homemade pockets plus two Tweedle pockets on the way.
But then I am a nutter

For Hannah I have 2-4, Briona has 8-10 (they share two) and Krystiana has 10. I would say that's the minimum, will be interesting to see!

Oh man, I have been avoiding counting!
Here we go:
10 Fuzzibunz
3 Bummis wraps with about 6 prefolds
1 Rosies pocket
1 Yoyo pocket
1 Yoyo bamboo towelling pocket
1 Ecobubs citrus pocket
...and I have just ordered 2 Baby Harmony pocket nappies!
I also have 1 rosies and 1 fuzzibunz small pockets, and 2 small bummis wraps, which don't fit anymore but I am saving them for #2. And we have two swim nappies...do they count?
I have just downloaded the Wee Weka pattern because I have decided that if I want any more nappies, I will darn well learn to make them myself and save some money!

Uh oh, if we're counting 'other' nappies as well I also have 3 HH trainers for Maya, 3 large HH's in the gremlins cupboard, 6 Bravo wraps, 2 swim nappies, about 14 prefolds and about 18 cloth flats
*silently thanks God that Willie doesn't know how to use the computer and is blissfully ignorant of our nappy situation*

Oh I'm so not even going to try and count my cloth flats - they get used for a million other things so I reckon they don't count.
I don't think my husband will be too oblivious for much longer, he surely must notice the over-full change table shelf!

It's possible that Willie has only seen our Aplix naps as he is completely snap-phobic, therefore he *may* have been lulled into a false sense of security over how many we actually have.
But I do have TWO babies...

Exactly. It would be foolish to have anything less that what you have at the moment. And you won several of those nappies didn't you? So you are completely justified.
I *had* to buy more nappies with aplix closures because DH hates snaps too, so really I was doing him a favour.

I've got:
2 swaddlebees (on their way)
3 tweedles
4 pea pods
18 fuzzis (I think) but these are a couple of different sizes

I have always had 6 and washed every day. Obviously 6 wasnt enough for a newborn but we used cloth flats and covers then.

Oh dear - I have no baby yet and have already managed to accumulate:
6 fuzzis
4 peapods
3 napnaps
And I'm looking at buying more .... wait til I actually have a baby to put them on!
I'm still telling DH this is saving us money .... I hope I don't get too addicted (and can be bothered washing them!! ) and it does actually save us money ....
