- 2 GroVia small wetbags
- Best Bottom AI2

Re: s/o Ecopolitan - CD stash (PIP)
I think I was there with my friends when you hauled that stash out of there. You cleaned them out!
Your stash looks pretty comprehensive on the AIO and pocket side. Are you leaning away from fitteds with covers or prefolds with covers? That would be the only thing I see lacking from your stash.
my read shelf:
It's a small world! I heard you guys talking about the various features of the diapers and I thought about asking you a few questions, but I didn't want to buh you. We liked the pockets and AIOs when we went to the class. I was concerned about leaking with prefolds and fitteds. Have you had a lot of leaks? DD is long and skinny so I just imagine she would wiggle and we'd have a mess.
Sometimes I feel like I work there! If I didn't have to work weekends, I totally would!
With the prefolds, there was definitely some leaking between the prefold onto the cover, but not beyond the PUL cover. We've been using fitteds with covers most of the time, and they rock, it's like having two diapers on, only rarely does the poo get past the fitted.
We use pockets at night because he's a big wetter, and they do pretty good, though we do get leaks sometimes, and actually had to switch brands because he got too long and was gaping at the top and leaking.
The classes help so much! It's what got DH on board and helped make our decision easier. It's so much better to play with them before you buy.
Good luck with your stash!
