I've bought a dozen Econobums prefolds and 3 covers, along with 5 bumgenius v.3 os. Just wondering how many more nappies I might need to get myself from birth to potty. Thanks

It depends on how often you want to wash and how old the baby is

IE a newborn could use upwards of 12 a day so another pack of Econobums so that you have a day and a half between washes. I think the Econobums may be a bit too big for newborns.

If econobums are the ones I'm thinking of, you will need more than 3 covers. Newborn poo just shot out the prefold and smeared the wrap each time

yes, more wraps needed especially if breastfeeding as the newborn poo gets on the wrap everytime.
