What’s it like to cloth diaper a newborn? Should you buy covers and prefolds and flats or invest in AIO diapers and pockets? Does it save money to buy tiny diapers that you’ll use for a short time? What exactly are the benefits to using cloth for a newborn?
Join me and our newborn son Erik as we answer these questions starting TOMORROW with reviews of over 40 different diapers and covers AND four fun giveaways!
Here’s how the Cloth Diapering Your Newborn event will work: there will be four review posts and five giveaway packages. It’s that simple!

I’m super excited for these reviews as I will be having my first child in April! My husband and I decided to do cloth diapering but without having any personal friends who have done it, I’ve been starting from scratch and trying to gain all the information from online sources. I have gotten a few diapers but don’t want to spend the money on diapers until I know what works best for us! And especially on newborn diapers when i know he will outgrow them quickly!! I’m super excited to see the reviews and diapers you put on your handsome little man! Thank you for your dedication to the blog!! I have found this to be a wonderful resource!
Kelsi,
Thanks so much for your sweet comments! I’m glad these newborn posts have been helpful…and there are more to come! We tried out TONS of different diapers LOL. I think covers and prefolds are such a great investment for a newborn because the prices are lower and they are quick to dry. And you can always use the small prefolds for doublers later. As for the covers, since they aren’t used long you can hold onto them for the next child and they should still be in great shape.
