1. Newborn rental programs - I plan on having 2 kids. With multiple kids, is it worth just investing in small diapers or is it still easier/cheaper to use a newborn rental program twice?

2. Feedback on my plan:
I would like to CD from the newborn phase (if I have a very, very small baby I'm ok using disposables until we can fit into a diaper meant for 7-8 lbs). Can I get feedback on what I'm thinking of doing for my stash?

Newborn/small stage: prefolds and covers
-prefolds (cotton, hemp, home-sewn from flannel), some home-sewn fitteds
-thirsties duo wrap size 1

-are bummis worth getting?
-are softbums Echo and pods worth getting?
-would econobums be a better choice?
-how many covers will I need? 6? 8?
-will I need doublers? How many?

15 lbs +
-Heiny Lineys system
-Flip

-I like the washable/wipable cover w/ and insert better than an AIO or pocket system. Heiny Lineys look fantastic in terms of versatility - particularly the way you can pre-stuff them to mimic AIOs for sitters, family, etc. And after reading so much good feedback on the flips, I can't imagine not wanting to try them. Plus I know I can stuff both of them with the smaller prefolds.

-again, I still have a hard time figuring out how much I actually need in terms of covers and inserts.


I'm very excited about all of this and thank everyone in advance for their input
