Question

[hoopz_sitter]

hey everyone, I'm new to the membership of the site, and I have a quick question, anyone have any suggestions on a good first diaper to try? i'm pretty sure I want something cloth, or at least reusable. and realize I am a plus sized woman. with that in mind, suggestions are welcome for where to look for something!

Cloth is a pretty broad category with everything from all-in-ones to traditional non-prefolds. Anything specific appeal to you? I can only speak to AIOs as that was what appealed to me and after trying a few different people/companies ran across Dependco who is fantastic. Might not be what you're looking for though.

well honestly I don't KNOW what I'm looking for, so I'll look at the links

Cloth can be a bit expensive for experimentation. You maybe would be better off ordering some disposable samples if you're not sure what you're looking for?

Hi and Welcome to Daily Diapers,

Well welcome to Daily Diapers

I have used flat cloth diapers for years and truly love birdseye cloth diapers, they wash and dry very eazly and stand up very well, I have some flat and prefold diapers that are at least 20 years old.

About a year ago I discovered Diaper Rite diapers sold by Diaper Junction that are birdseye flats (large 32" X 32") that fit me to a 'T' love them and they are only $22.00 per dozen. I have a 34" waist and 36" hips and these diapers would fit someone even larger. I usually use 2 of the large diapers and layer them with 2 - 27" X 27" diapers and 2 - Gerber baby prefolds

I think I prefer prefolds myself, which of course still need to be folded some more. I've recently tried a couple of different contoured cloth diapers too but they don't seem to hold/absorb quite as good for me. Either way I also use PUL pants that are a size larger (to fit over the bulky cloth). I've tried regular plastic pants before but those always seemed to leak a lot more often (though they did feel better).
