My Cloth Diaper Stash

This is my stash of newborn (Indian) and infant (Chinese) prefolds. There are also 2 dozen bumGenius baby wipe. I bought 4 dozen and have left 2 dozen in the packs. I have a total of 24 infant and 36 newborn prefolds..

This is a size comparison of the two kinds of prefolds I have.

This is a picture of one of the Chinese prefolds I have.

This is one of the Indian prefolds I have.

This is my diaper bag already packed and ready to go to the hospital. I have put 1 dozen Indian prefolds in the bag. Half of them are already stuffed into the 6 newborn bummis super whisper wraps I have packed as well. I have one of my pink bumGenius diapers packed as well as 2 of the Chinese prefolds. I have packed my 3 snappies, diaper pins and rash cream as well as some clothes for the baby. I am comfortable with pins as that is all there was 9 years ago when I cloth diapered my son.

Here are my 6 bummis super whisper wraps in newborn along with another picture of the wipes I bought.

Here is one of the Indian prefolds already stuffed into a bummi wrap.

Here is my stash of bumGenius diapers. I have 6 white, 6 twilight, and 7 blossom. All are stuffed with the newborn insert.

Here is a pic of the blossom stuffed with the newborn insert and set on the newborn setting.

Here is one the the stuffed diapers opened up to show how much they do look like a disposable diaper.

Here are the regular inserts for my bumGenius diapers as well as 6 small bummi super whisper wraps and 6 medium bummi wraps as well.

Well there you have it. It seems like I have alot of diapers, probably more than some, less than others, but what I have here should get me through potty training. To break it down this is what I have in my stash:

1) 36 Indian prefolds in newborn size

2) 24 Chinese prefolds in infant size

3) 19 bumGenius 3.0 pocket diapers (6 white, 6 twilight, 7 blossom), includes 19 newborn inserts and 19 regular adjustable inserts.

4) 6 bummi super whisper wraps in newborn (1 print, 5 white)

5) 6 bummi super whisper wraps in small (all white)

6) 6 bummi super whisper wraps in medium (all white)

In total I have 6 1/2 dozen diapers plus 1. 60 prefolds (5 dozen) 19 bumGenius diapers (1 1/2 dozen plus 1). Then I have a total of 18 bummi super whisper wraps to cover from around 6 pounds to 30+ pounds. The bumGenius are good from 8 to 35 pounds. I have purchased all of the diapers either from cottonbabies or the Montana diaper store. I have links to both sites in my side bar. I have had excellent service with both companies and highly recommend both. I bought the bummis from the Montana diaper store as they were bargain priced ($9.50) and first quality pieces.

My Son

I bet no one will guess what my son did on Wednesday! It was your normal average day and his class had a feild trip to go on. I wanted to go but being 34+ weeks pregnant I figured I should stay home. It was 10 miles out of town on the bus and with the back and hip problems I have been having I figured home would be the best place to be. Well sitting at home less than an hour before he was ready to go on the feild trip I get a call from the school, (not his teacher, we talk often) It was the secretary informing me of what my son had done in gym class while playing rainbow tag. Instead of telling you what he did I will put up a picture of what he did. You guessed it. He ran into the gym wall (made of cinder blocks) and broke his tooth. I had no way to get to the school to see how bad it was as the car was at the shop with the husband. So the next best thing, I called the dentist office and told them what the secetary had told me. I was talking to the receptionist when she told me to hold for a minute and then next voice I heard on the line was our dentist. He was asking me questions that I couldn't answer because I hadn't seen the damage. He told me if it was just a little chip and no blood it could wait until my son got back from his feild trip but if there was any sign of blood that he needed to come in right away. I told the dentist that I would call the school back and ask the questions he had asked me. They told me what it looked like and (and it was the worst case senerio, blood on the tooth) I told them to not send him on the feild trip and that I would be there as soon as I could find a ride. So as soon as I hung up the phone from the school I though who can I call. I know I will call Stan. He is a guy from our church that has given us rides to and from church many times when we didn't have a car. He has been a blessing to our family. He had taken his wife to the doctor and was waiting for her to go in when I called him. I told him what happened and he said he would come and get us. He came right away, picked me up then went to the school, we got my son and headed to the dentist office. All said my son was sitting in the dentist chair within an hour and a half of breaking his tooth. Stan was even able to make it back to the doctors office before his wife had a chance to see the doctor. Here is what the dentist did to his tooth. I think he did a good job and you can't even tell unless you look really close at the tooth and this picture doesn't show the tiny line at all.

For all that would like to know, my son did get to go on the feild trip with the other class that went in the afternoon.
