Cloth Nappy Poll

[Tiggerbaby]

Hi Everyone:wave:

I know that there are other thread relating to cloth nappy user numbers but no real polls. Forgive me if i don't quite get this all right it is my first poll.

Thanks

I said 30-35, but the reality is that I have somewhere around 5 dozen, give or take a few.

I have 3 dozen nappies from when I had DD#1, a bundle given to me by my mother who still had them in the cupboard from when my brother was a baby (he's 34 now!), and another dozen I bought so that I could have my machine really full before I do a nappy load.

I'm just using flannelette flats. No reason to buy fitted cloth from my point of view, and certainly not spending money on fitted cloth seeing DS is the last one.

I have a couple dozen terry flats, and a coupe of AIO's

I have around 25 I think, mostly fitted but I have 4 pockets and they are my new favourite type :D

[cwsmum]

Around 30...I think...lots of flats and a few pockets :)

[mrsd]

I buy a new pack per baby usually but bought 2 packs this time because we still had 2 in nappies and the other ones are getting thinner. That means about 24 nice white ones and about 60 in various stages of "giving up the ghost".

I want to see a poll about how often people DO the nappy bucket ! Or want to !:D

[Oscar's mum]

I have at least 80 nappies (all different types).

[reAllytee]

I have about 50 now ranging from terry flats to pockets & eenees !

[the_queen]

Oscar's mum, I am in awe of you :p

My husband keeps saying "I thought you switched to cloth to save money - you're still spending money every fortnight on nappies!!" :rolleyes: He just doesn't understand....

Two words: RESALE VALUE :D

[Oscar's mum]

Two words: RESALE VALUE :D


For sure:thumbsup: I figure once they are bought they he can't make me return them!:devil6:

And also mention to him that if we were disposable users we could be buying a box of 100 a week and yet here we are with less than that in 16 months!:p

[the_queen]

Yeah exactly! My point to him is, if we're having a tight month and money is short, then I do not need to buy nappies that month! Whereas if we were on disposables I'd be having to buy nappies even when we're skint!! Technically, I've got enough cloth nappies to last now until Curtis is self-toileting, so technically I don't have to ever buy another nappy again (but where's the fun in that :p)

[MummyCharmzy]

I've got at least 80 from flats to prefolds to AIO's

love em !!

[Mischief]

I think we have about 30, but I really need to buy more....I have to wash every day or two to stay on top of them!!!
