I’m thinking of trying the trial kit out it includes a few different nappies & I’ll buy the liners for the nappies too.

For anyone that uses reusable nappies - I would love to know how often you wash the cloth nappies & how many do you have?

Thanks in advance!

I wash every 3 days. How many you’ll need depend on the age of your baby, how often you plan to wash them, and how long they take to dry. So if you get through 6 a day, wash every 3 days, take 2-3 days to air dry you’ll need 36 nappies

He’s 7 weeks today 💗

I would ideally like to do wash every few days as opposed to everyday as that would just be annoying Grin

I’m unsure as to how long a nappy would last before being washed ie how many changes?

I've bought some little lamb nappies, I've no experience of using them just yet, but they suggest that a newborn nappy is changed every 2-4 hours, so getting through 10 or so a day. The general consensus is 20 nappies in your collection for a newborn - 6 months to allow you to wash every other day. But how this works for you will depend on your child's habits and how much of a wetter they are.

I've got a link to 30% off the little lambs website for this week if it's helpful. i.refs.cc/jLtE09sg?smile_ref=eyJzbWlsZV9zb3VyY2UiOiJzbWlsZV91aSIsInNtaWxlX21lZGl1bSI6IiIsInNtaWxlX2NhbXBhaWduIjoicmVmZXJyYWxfcHJvZ3JhbSIsInNtaWxlX2N1c3RvbWVyX2lkIjoyODU3NTQ0NTV9

This might help! What I find really useful is having a stash of wraps and cheap flats (terries/prefolds/muslins) for emergency nappies I case I run out before the load is dry!
