The amount of diapers will depend on the age of the baby to be diapered. Infants will need about 12 changes per day, with toddlers needing a few less. You also have to ask yourself how often you'd like to wash. The fewer diapers you have, the more often you'll need to wash.

This is a general guideline:

  • 3-5 dozen cloth diapers
  • 5 diaper covers per size*
  • pins, clips, or Snappis as needed*
  • 2-3 dozen cloth wipes

*if you are using Bum Genius, no cover or pins are needed

If you are trying something new, we suggest you only purchase one or two to try it out.
