Favorite style

What is your favorite style of diaper (OS, fitted, prefolds, etc) atm?

Has it always been that way, or has it changed over time?

If you find that you don't like a diaper (leak, fit, whatever), do you sell it right away or do you hold on to it in case it will work better in the future or in case you have more children?

What is your favorite style of diaper (OS, fitted, prefolds, etc) atm? RIGHT now? Bitti D'Lish (Itti Bitti) AIO's... I love how trim they are. For night time my favourite is definitely a fitted

Has it always been that way, or has it changed over time? It very much changes over time - I LOVED pockets to start with, and then I had a big obsession with prefolds, but the past few months I've really liked the Itti Bitti AIO's - but am not too fond of the others I've tried. Weird?

If you find that you don't like a diaper (leak, fit, whatever), do you sell it right away or do you hold on to it in case it will work better in the future or in case you have more children? I tend to hold onto them, 'just incase' (incase I start liking it, for some reason). I know I'm not having another baby, so I don't keep them with that thought in mind...

My favs are AIOs and pretty much always have been. I go through stages with other styles. Or like them for specific ocassions. But on the whole, I always come back to AIOs being the best for our family and lifestyle.

I do a little of both. I tend to be a seller...and have regretted selling a few things over the course of my diapering. Things that didn't work in the past and now we use regularly. But overall, if I don't love it immediately, I prolly won't love it down the road. I think I have had twice the stash I currently have and have sold it

I think I'm too new at this to really have a favorite. Besides which, I've only tried two different kinds. I did like the AIO, but man it took forever to dry. I think I'll stick with the pockets.

My favorite style has always been OS pocket.

Im torn on a favorite. Pockets are quick and easy, but I also love PFs with various covers. PFs are so versatile and wash so well. I never thought I'd be such a PF fan.

I've only come across one diaper I didn't like and I sold it. For me, cloth is about saving money and it does me no good to have a diaper we won't use.

I thought I'd love pockets with the stay dry inner, but they didn't work for us. Also tried PF's . . . I like them, but i highly prefer fitted's for the ease of putting them on. Fitteds are by far my favorite!

I sold off what didn't work and what I didn't love. When I get around to making Kaiden more inserts, I will be selling my Rearz PF's, I just don't like them. They're fine . . . if you prefer PF's . . .

I love snappied prefolds and covers for little ones who don't or can't fight changes

but for older wigglier babies I like aplix AIOs or AI2s. Or fitteds I can pre-snap and pull on like Sandys, with longies.

Don't like pockets (hate stuffing and unstuffing), don't like OS rise snaps. Don't like front snaps because they don't fit my LO well.

My preference changes. I love all that I have but some days I'm loving my prefolds and covers more..or no covers..or flats instead..or wool covers..or sometimes I'm all about our pockets. Lol. It really depends on my mood I guess.

Also, everything we have is OS..With the exceptions being the thirsty duo covers that come in two sizes and our aristocrat wool covers also in two sizes.

Right now pockets, because I'm limited by day care. Before DS started daycare, I loved AI2s or fitteds. When he was tiny, I preferred AIOs.

I'm like Ashlee. I'm a seller/trader. I've definitely had a least two or three times the diapers I now own go through my stash. The worst have been RaRs! I had a bunch at first, liked them for awhile, sold them, restashed them, had a few delaminate, sold them all again, and now most of my stash is RaRs. Ahhh!

I love OS pockets

and fitteds for night time.

What is your favorite style of diaper (OS, fitted, prefolds, etc) atm? honestly i dont know. we are having size issues still. the one that fits the best now is an AIO.

Has it always been that way, or has it changed over time? i loved pockets with my son but that is all i tried with him. i liked prefolds for about a month when they actually fit well on DD

If you find that you don't like a diaper (leak, fit, whatever), do you sell it right away or do you hold on to it in case it will work better in the future or in case you have more children? ive never sold a diaper that still fit. wont be having more children so im not saving any after this.

We prefer OS pockets over here as well. If i buy a diaper i dont like or wont use i either give it to someone (rare since i dont know many people IRL that CD) or ill sell/trade it.
