Another CD post (MMR!)

Sparked by Jenny's $40 diaper comment.

How much Is your most expensive diaper? Was it worth it?

I'm just starting out, but I splurged (or so I thought!) on a $24 Bummi's Easy Fit (Tots Bots). I love it! The inside is minky and it's a AIO/pocket hybrid.

I have a couple Mini Maestro pockets. They're fine, but they're not that much different than my cheapy pockets. I bought one for $18 and won another.

I did try a few Goodmamas, but I bought it used and wasn't impressed. I think I've still got one, but I resold the rest.

I bought some extra-special one up in Victoria a few months back. It's a planet print, which I knew H would love, and is also an AIO/pocket deal (has a pocket, but the insert is attached to the diaper itself--I assume that's the same as what you bought?).
I believe this one was $28ish.

I am such a cheap CD'r. I just use prefolds and Thirsties covers, but one time I bought a Rumparooz from someone on Craigslist for $16 because I wanted to see what pockets are all about. That diaper leaked like no other. I'm now afraid to try anything else!

[drloretta]

I bought a Goodmama off of a vendor site for about $35. It's actually a nice, soft diaper and it has a cute print (Guess How Much I Love You), but it probably wasn't worth $35. I found a WAHM seller on Etsy who does pockets and fitteds that I adore, and she's reasonably priced, so most of my stuff is from her now.

Oh man.

$40+

i have many. I blame jenny!!!!!!

Probably my custom Twinkie Tush. I have a SYOF that probably was $42ish after shipping and fabric costs.

I have thus far managed to completely avoid those super pricey CDs....I thought my GroVia AIO was pricey when I bought it (I think 24 dollars?) We have two of them but we hate them, they leak everywhere.

SBish fitteds. Forgot how much they cost, I bought four at a time for a discount. Def not $40 each though.

Most of my diapers are seconds or used.

[froggy76]

I don't think I've spent more than $20 on a diaper.

[aspentosh]

Probably a used EasyFit, at $18. I haven't bought a single diaper brand new! My mom bought us a bunch of BG 4.0s that were new, so she's spent the most on diapers

[hymen]

We use Kawaii and BG 4.0 (both pockets), so the BG are the most expensive. I think they were $18? I don't remember. I got a few from a seconds sale too.

I lucked out though. My mom and MIL bought us most of our CD stash. We have about 28 diapers that we have used since he was one month old. A few are getting worn out though (mostly snaps coming off) and will probably need to be replaced in the next few months.

[bunch]

Lol. 6 dollar used bg.

[CloudBee]

I'm determined not to spend more than $20. I hope that the stash of BGs and FBs I'm going to build will be adequate and work well for our baby. I prefer solid colors, and don't think I'll find myself wanting to spend $40 on a diaper. I think that's crazy cakes! lol

[water*drop]

I have two Tot Bots Easy Fits that I bought new ($24). I love them, so yes, they were worth it. I have an OSC fitted that I haven't used yet...I don't remember how much that one was. $25-30, I think.

[whitemerlot]

I have a dozen Bububebe fitteds at $28 a pop, plus shipping from Canada. I really like them. I probably overspent on diapers. I have way too many and bought everything new.

[cheese]

The most was a BG Freetime. So maybe $20ish.

I have tons of inserts, so to keep them fresh I alternate stuffing with a prefold or a microfiber insert.

Ohh, so you can stuff BGs with prefolds? Is this a good way to double, too? I've begun to learn a lot about the diapers themselves, but not much about inserts/stuffing as of yet.

I'm sticking to FBs and BGs to start.

Newborn prefolds make great doublers or inserts in pockets later.

Awesome, and they are cheap! Thanks for the insight!
