Thank you, Ive been reading the nappy lady site which Is why I thought go with prefolds and wrap. Took a look on TM last night and theres some great deals on pocket nappies, mostly mybaby brand, I wasnt overly keen on pocket given you have to wash the entire thing, has anyone used a prefold inside a pocket, does that work?

Thinking now I will get some pockets and try them out if they are only a few dollars then its all good. Some auctions at a $1 reserve for 10/15 and 20 nappies and they seem to go for arounmd $60 which is fab!

Most pockets come with one or two inserts (the MyBaby ones do) made of microfibre which absorb more than cotton prefolds. There's no problem using prefolds in pockets though, saves you buying additional microfibre inserts.

The only thing I found with OSFA pockets is that they were too big on my newborn baby which was where the sized prefolds and wrap were an affordable option (they had paid for themselves by the time he went up in size and now I get to use them again for baby no2!).

If you're wondering how much money nappies will cost & how much you can save by using cloth, have a look here.

I use mainly pockets (mybaby from TM). I have extra inserts so once the pocket dries I can use straight away rather than waiting for the insert to dry. I haven't used my prefolds in them as I haven't needed too but there is no reason why you couldn't though. I think DD started wearing OSFA pockets at about 3 months once she was out of her infant sized real nappies.
