We didn't start cloth diapering until Eli was 1, so the newborn phase of it will be new to me. We have a lot of BG 3.0s and plan to get some new 4.0s. For those of you who use BG, what age/size did your baby start fitting in them well?
I am hesitant to buy something new for the newborn phase, so we're leaning toward sposies until the BGs fit.
Re: Newborns & CDs
Colby was born at 9lbs 1 oz, so it wasn't the fit that had me hesitating. I was intimidated by the laundry aspect of CD's (and now realize it is WAY easier than I thought it would be.) I also did repairs on a lot of my stash as C is the third kiddo to use them.
Anyway, we used disposables until 11.5 weeks; we were clueless in all other aspects of parenthood, so needed the easy way out with diapers. He fit very well in our BG 3's, so we could/should have started sooner.

We didn't think of trying cloth until 2 months. When we did, we did end up using the onesize diapers (which we have many many brands...got from a friend). They were bulky, but for the pockets, if you just used the smallest absorbancy, it wasn't bad.
When we have another newborn, I'm going to mass produce and use these:
