'nother cover question

[doberbrat]

We're almost 2w into cloth now and I need more covers. I have 2 prowraps size medium, 3 gerbers (which work well but seem hot and leave red marks) and something "by April"

I'm using the covers over cpf or cpf converted into fitteds.

I want something more breathable, readily available and affordable b/c I'm pretty sure that dc will just toss the whole lot into the pail- not seperate out covers to reuse later and I'm assuming that once the cover gets tossed into the pail w/the dirty diaper, I wont be able to reuse it later. I'm thinking inexpensive fleece covers would be perfect.

DD is 7mo, 18lbs has 11in thighs, 16in rise.

Oh, and we cannot do wool- she's really allergic to lanolin.

and I'd like it to be somewhat trim- I had to change her out of the 'april' diaper last night b/c it was all so thick she couldnt sleep on her side! she kept cryign so I ended up putting her back in a disposable.

how are the bummis nylon pullons?

if your looking for pullons i like the dappi ones better than the bummi. The bummis seem more plasticy to me. And the dappi are also cheaper!

I dont know what would be best for us. My prioities are inexpensive, breathability and readily available since I want to get her switched over at daycare asap.

is the nylon that much more breathable than the vinyl?

you might try the dappi wraps also... they are more breathable than the proraps and you can trifold the prefold in them
or with the coverteds I go pull-on dappi

p.s. I have 3 new dappi wraps we don't use because we went snappi

I like the gerber ones but they don't make them the ez ones anymore - I have too many in M so if you need that size I have plenty NIP... I like BWW & LW's too... but for breathing I'd stay away from PUL. Maybe fleece?
