Hi ladies. I just found this site today thanks to the moderator over on the 2nd tri pregnancy board. Anyway, I am debating on whether to do cloth with my new LO due in August. I want to but I just am not sure. I have been using cloth off and on for about 2.5 yrs. I hate to give up now. I have Mother Ease cloth diapers that you have to use a cover. I like those. I also have BumGenius 3.0 AIO OS diaper. I really don't like those. The reason being I hate stuffing inserts. SO, I am thinking that I might be interested in doing cloth diapers that are AIO but come sized. But I don't want to stuff any inserts. I want to just use the diaper and wash. It can be velcro or snap. I don't care. Sorry this area is new to me so I don't know much about the kind that come sized. I know BG sells these types of diapers but when I look at the pictures it looks like you still have to stuff the diaper. So can anyone help me? Can someone recommend a cloth diaper that is AIO that is actually an AIO where I can just wash and use and not have to stuff?!?! TIA!

Hmmmm....I'm not sure. I'm a pocket fan because the AIO's take too long to dry. Have you thought about AI2's? The soaker can snap in rather than having to stuff. Bottombumpers come to mind or I think dreameze are AI2's?

Thanks for the info. I did some more reading last night and found that you don't have to stuff the AIOs. They do have a pocket that you can stuff a liner if you need extra protection. I did see a diaper called SposeEase or something like that where it was an AIO and you could snap a liner into it. I like that idea better. I don't like the pocket flap. I know with my BumGenius they tend to bunch. I don't know if an AIO would do that or not. I love the idea of AIOs but I didn't think about how long it would take them to dry. I guess I could lay them out overnight on a drying rack and finish drying in the morning. Another thing I am unsure about is the price. I have 12 Mother Ease diapers, 12 pre-folds, and 16 BumGenius 3.0 AIO OS diapers. So it isn't like I am low. I wouldn't have a problem spending almost $200 on one size diapers but sized diapers is a different story. I would order two sets. Probably smalls and mediums. Being our last baby I am just unsure. I know overall we would still save cash but I just don't know. I need to think about it some more.

Grobaby also makes some that you can snap the diaper it. I have several of these and I like them. You can reuse the cover if it doesn't get wet or dirty.

I just did the math. If I could get some 10 AIO diapers (would use other diapers I have in between as well if I needed more than 10 per day) then the cost would be around $170-200. If I did disposables for 8 months at $9.99 a pack then that would be $320. So even if I only used the diapers for eight months I would still be saving around $120-150. I think that would make them worth buying right? lol

It's definitely a savings! Here is a link from www.diaperpin.com. It's the product reviews for AI2's (if that's what you are considering now:

The growbaby that Roni recommends has a ton of reviews.

There are also hybrids where you just lay in a prefold or insert and go. flips are very popular: www.cottonbabies.com
