Default Newborn Stash Building...

Been a long time since I've posted here but I've been lurking recently!

Only have about 6 weeks to go till bub arrives and I'm starting to get worried about my nb nappy stash! Finally did a stocktake this morning. (We only started using cloth with Miss J when she was about 6 months old so had to pretty much start from scratch here )

Anyone want to help me fill in the gaps? What do I need, where can I go shopping??

Wipes - Plenty!
Liners - none!!!
Wet Bags - x 2
Snappi's - none!!

Bamboo Prefolds - x 12
Jamtots Berry Plus - x 1
Itti Bitti SIO - Small x 2
Itti Bitti AIO - Small x 1
Itti Bitti AIO - Medium x 1
Beetlebms AIO - NB/SM?
BumGenius One Size 3.0 - x 5
SwaddleBees AIO/Pocket? - Small x 3
SwaddleBees One Size Pocket - x 1
Bubble Bubs Sherpies - Small x 2
Baby Greens Growing Greens OSFA - x 1
Tots Bots Bamboozle - Size 1 x 1

MWS - x 1
Spare Ribs Shoaker - x 2
Lovelybums Wool Cover - NB/SM x 1
Bummis PUL - NB x 1
Bummis PUL - SM x 2
Bummis Fleece - SM x 1

I know I need more of everything, fitted, covers but I'm at a bit of a loss what to buy. I have more MWS and Shoakers planned but other than that....?!?!?!?!?

Hey Kel Nice to see you over here!!

I'm planning on doing my stocktake very soon, but as we were cloth from birth with Lily it's really only new covers we need and perhaps some more flanny flats. I have a trillion terry flats that will be the bulk of our stash until bubs fits the mediums. And my sister has made noises about making some bamboo prefolds

In small sizes I have 10 Kidz in Cloth and 1 Cherubs Kiss auriel fitted. I'm figuring that the medium ittis will fit fairly early from other's experience and I have a stack of those in AIOs and a couple of fitteds. I'm also planning on using the OSFM I have as soon as I can ~ we have Baby Behinds bamboos and some Cute Tooshies and Cuddle Buns and TBH not sure what else could be lurking in there; probably some Green Kids etc.

I'm hoping to do wool exclusively in terms of covers, but I think I might buy a couple of back up pul covers just in case. I'll probably get some eenee snibs (great for over flanny flats, no need for pins or fastenings) and perhaps the Thirsties pul covers as there seems to be very good reviews on them. hmm, you've made me think I might need a LoveyBums wool cover though, we have one we used with Lily here in a bigger size and it was fantastic, even overnight

Not sure if that is actually any help for you, but it did just help me sort it out

It has been so long since I've bought nappies I feel totally out of the loop! Thought this would be a good place to come back to and get a feel for it all again.

Sounds like you are pretty organised!!

I've made the most of a couple of child free hours this morning to do a little 'nesting' in babys room. Just waiting on the wardrobe inserts to be installed on Tuesday morning and then I can finish sorting and putting away all the tiny clothes and nappies. (been washing and sorting all of J's baby stuff).

I'd like to get some more fitted nappies plus some more pockets as I found they were great for DH and other family to cope with instead of trying to work out nappies + covers iykwim.
