I started using cloth diapers when my son was 5 months old. He fit well into the Bum Genius and Haute Pockets one-size diapers. My question is - what brand of all-in-one or pocket diaper would you recommend for a newborn? I know that there is no way these diapers will fit on a tiny one! Has anyone used the Thirsties AIO newborn size? Any ideas would be so appreciated! Thank you!

I used the thirsties NB covers so if they are similar in sizing to the AIO's they should fit a newborn nicely with room to grow. My 9lb bub wore her thirsties cover from the day she cme home until around 3m old. A smaller OSFM fitted is the baby eco. Lovely and soft but wouldn't fit my son after he was around 10m.

I used prefolds with covers and also had some fitteds, my baby is now 3mo and use fitteds and wool or fleece covers most of the time I also have BG 3.0 for both boys to share.

vilate I can not get your link to work!! I like fitteds for newborns so I am no help!! I had a ton of AIO's with my youngest and every single one of them leaked on me so I shy away from them.
Good Luck

I jsut used my fitteds, cause I have a way of folding them so they will be smaller! you can see my tutorial for it here

This could work for other brands of diapers too! If they are front snapping!

I didn't like thirsties aio but it was the old version. not sure if the new one is better. i do know lots of people use the kissaluvs fitted with thirsties covers for the NB stage. the NB kissaluvs are a two size so they fit till 20 lbs if that helps. or you may want to use prefolds for a few weeks. i think BG fits after 8 lbs or so.

Our son fit into the BumGenius from the start, but he was an over 8lb baby. We also used a combo of prefolds w/ covers, the X-Small Thirsties AIO - which was great (nap time we learned quickly, we needed to use a hemp insert though), but I will say, the Fab Fitteds have definitely been a favorite in the newborn stage!

We used the newborn size prefolds with bummis super whisper wraps or the proraps while our LO was a newborn. We didn't start until she was 10 days old and the umbilical cord had fallen off.

The BG should be ok with just the newborn insert.

I also us BG and Haute pcokets and have since my daughter was 4 weeks. She has always fit into both pretty well. I have only had one blow out with cloth diapers and always have leaks, etc with disposables. Unless, your LO was really small they should be fine.
I have a friend who used Kissaluvus contours and covers for her newborn and really liked them. I do have some kissaluvus's and covers, but find they are kinda bulky. the contours might be different.
