Baby 1-4 months

| Brand: Huggies Swaddlers |
| We've used both a diaper service and Huggies Swaddlers diapers, and they cost roughly the same (the diaper service costs a little more, plus you need to buy the equipment). Our infant at first went through about 12-15 diapers a day, or 2 boxes of 200 diapers, totaling about $60 if we got the bulk diapers at Babies R Us. The diaper service costs $80 a month for 80 diapers a week, plus about $40-$60 of covers, pins and a dirty diaper bin to get started. |

| Brand: huggies |
| i suggest that when u have an infant or newborn to buy the cheapest diapers because you change them so often they arent in the soiled diaper that long. but when they get older and start moving and walking i suggest going to a more trust brand whether it be huggies luvs, pampers..whatever. They seem to have better protection with them moving and getting around. |

Best diapers

| Brand: Pampers |
| In my opinion Pampers are by far the best brand. I have tried all others including the off brand when my daughter was first born and it was horrible. After much experimentation I have to say it's worth the extra $ to get what you know works. |

Overall Diaper Prices Go Down, But Individual Prices Go Up!

| Brand: Cruisers |
| The good news is that we spend less each month on diapers -- mostly because as our baby gets older (1 mo -> 3 mo -> 6mo) he goes to the bathroom fewer times each day (from 20 to maybe 8). The bad news is that the prices are increasing for a bulk box at Babies R Us, from about $30 to about $40 for an economy box. Plus, as the diapers get bigger, the box contains fewer diapers (from around 220 to around 150). But overall, we're spending less per month now. |

cloth diapers are affordable

| Brand: bumgenius |
| I spent about $400 for cloth diapers (Bum Genius one size, 22 diapers)They fit baby from 8-35lbs. My electric went up about $8 per month since I mostly dry them in the dryer. This comes to $640 over the span the baby is diapered. They go on as easy as disposables with velcro and even baby sitters and dad doesn't mind using them. Disposables cost about $2520 over the span of time so it is easily worth it financially to cloth diaper if you are washing them yourself. (Washing is no big deal, just throw them in at the end of the day and wash). The diapers don't smell or have stains at all and there is no diaper rash. Also they are far less harmful on the environment. |

| I have three left in diapers, I have used Parent's choice on all my kids til they were potty trained. They are the cheapest brand and the most trustworthy to me. I tried Luvs and they leaked. |

Cloth Diapers are best
|

| Brand: Pre-Fold |
| Not sure when the previous posters were using cloth diapers, but they no longer require pins, and all the other accessories. You can purchas a "snappy" for $2.99 (set of 2 or 3) that last the entire time of using cloth diapers. Disposable diapers are horrible for the environment and your child is more likely to get a diaper rash. Just because the diaper can hold x amount of lbs of poop and urine doesn't mean that I want to use that particular brand. Cloth diapering does not require a diaper service. The diaper servicing is extra. And if a person calculates a raise in electricity because of a couple loads of laundry - that's pretty outlandish considering your washing increases with any new baby. All you have to buy is one or two diaper covers that grow with your babies size (from infant to 4-6months), the snappies (2.99) and your set for way longer than changing diaper sizes with disposable diapers. And when you need to go out, there are simple liners for the cloth diapers. The pre-folds will fit up to babies over one year (although, my children were potty trained before 1 yrs old). There are tons of ways to fold a diaper to fit a newborn and baby over 35lbs. Check out videos on youtube for examples. Not sure if I can insert links here. |

| Brand: Luvs |
| I buy one pack of Luvs each week for my two boys. Luvs are a little cheaper than pampers, but just as absorbant. I don't have time to wash cloth diapers |
