Prefolds!!!

I decided that we were going to start using prefolds with covers, it's the cheap route to cloth diapering. I put some tiny tush prefolds on layaway along with some other things back in September. I used Gerber prefold while I paid off my layaway. Later on I also purchased some econobum prefolds as well.

Gerber Prefolds: uck eww don't waste your money!! They should only be used for burp clothes or cleaning rags I now use mine to clean with. They served there purpose I guess but not well.

Tiny Tush white regular prefolds: http://www.tinytush.com/Chinese-Prefold-Diapers-One-Dozen_p_632.html I had ordered them from http://comfycozydiapers.com but she no longer has them. I got these in the mail last week and like them. There is a huge difference is quality between these and gerber. When you get prefolds you should wash and dry them 5-7 times before using to prep them (remove natural oils and make them more absorbent). The prep is a bit annoying especially when you have 4 kids and mountains of normal laundry to get done. They work well with a snappi or just tri folded and placed in a pul cover. I like them they are the 2nd ones I reach for.

Econobum prefolds: http://cottonbabies.com I actually ordered them from http://fluffenvy.com but she is out of them. I got a good deal I ordered 12 of them for $21. Again the prep was super annoying but worth it. These are my favorite prefold ever!! You can use them with a snappi or tri folded, it even has a sewn in folding grid you can follow so that also makes this prefold daddy friendly :) These are the prefolds I grab first when changing the lil man.
