How many dipes do I need?

It depends on how old your child is and what type of dipe you want to use. Generally, you need to change your child every 2-3 hours. Then you need to decide how often do you want to do the wash. I wash mine every morning. So far 24 hours you will need approximately 12 (AIO or Pocket) dipes to get through one day. You may go through more with a newborn and less with a toddler. If you want to wash every other day, you will need 24 (AIO or Pocket) dipes. If you are going to use prefolds and covers, you will need approximately 6-8 covers. This will cover the newborn stage and go all the way to potty training. It all depends on what works best for you and your child.
 
Washing everyday: 12 dipes (give or take depending on the age of your child)
Washing every other day: 24 dipes (give or take depending on the age of your child)
 
Of course if you can always contact me with questions!
