Default Do I have enough?

I *think* I do - maybe - I'm not really sure!

This is what I have so far:

8 x newborn flannel/bamboo nappies, snaps and touchtape
13 x small size bamboo (will fit most newborns anyway), some snaps some snappi-able
11 x bamboo and flannelette prefolds
5 x chinese cotton prefolds
2 x hemp prefolds
3 x small bamboo flats
Pkt Canningvale Flats - 2 dozen I think, don't remember as I bought them for DD#1
and then from about 4kg on ...
3 x OSFA Ai2's
5 x OSFA PUL pocket nappies
16 x OSFA fitted nappies

then there are medium size but I won't go there yet...

Also 3 small soakers, 3 PUL covers, 1 fluffies cover and yet to come at least 2 more small fleece covers and small/newborn size flongies.

What do you think?? Do I have enough? What do I need more of? I want to have enough to wash every 2nd day with this bub. I always washed daily with Ellie but I'll have a bit on my plate this time.

Thanks!

Yep I think you have plenty there.

If you are anything like me you have already washed them and lovingly put them away all ready for bub.

I'd maybe get some more PUL covers. I found that with NB explosive poo I sometimes ended up with 3 soiled covers a day. They are so quick drying as opposed to soakers for example.

Plenty 6 covers plus 2 soakers is enough to get you through I think but if you can nab a couple of cheap PUL covers just in case might be handy.
Maybe a pair or two of longies too.

Different nappies suit different babies - but I'd say you have a good range there to try out.

I started out with a year or so ago with just a half a doz BBB and a cover and it just grew from there. At last count (a month or two ago) I had over fifty

It's my motto that 'You Can Never Have Too Many Nappies'

Is that why I keep making more??
I can't help it, I keep cutting out more fabric. I really have to stop now.
I still have a bag (or two) of "girlie" nappies in the cupboard that I'm not even getting out unless needed.

Karena, all the nappies are washed, sorted and packed away. In fact they were the first thing to be organised, now for the rest....
