My First Cloth Diaper Order

I placed my first cloth diaper order last night at Jillian's Drawers.com. I had narrowed down my list of online stores to buy from, from over 20 stores to just 3.  Finally, I found that, even though all three (wildflowerdiapers.com, nickisdiapers.com, and jilliansdrawers.com ) had excellent reviews on diaperpin.com and comparable prices, only Jillian's had everything I wanted, in the colors and sizes I wanted, in stock now.  I placed the order around 9 o'clock PM last night and I've already had 3 emails from them.  One was the initial order confirmation, the second included a tracking number (which shows that my order is already on it's way!) and the third shows exactly what was shipped.  So, even though I haven't received my order yet, I am so far impressed with their customer service and speeding order filling.

What I Ordered

I decided to go with pocket diapers and fitteds with covers to start.  I ordered:

3 Happy Heiny's One-Size pocket diapers in light pink.

3 Bumgenius 3.0 One-Size pocket diapers in blossom.

12 Kissaluvs fitted diapers in Unbleached size 0

6 Prowrap Classic diaper covers in white size nb.

I'll probably start with these and if I love them stock up and just add in bigger sizes (fitteds and covers) as the baby grows.  Most of the reviews I read say that the pocket diapers fit well once the baby actually grows into them.  So, I'll probably just do the fitteds at first and phase in the pockets once she's big enough.  Then, if the pockets work well enough, just add more pockets.  I really like that they're one-size.  That was the main reason, that even though Fuzzi Bunz pocket diapers got great ratings on diaper pin and have come out with an improved version, I decided on bumGenius and Happy Heiny's.  I'll let you know how they all work out for me.  With lots of pictures, of course.
