I have put together some packages that will show you what you will need to start cloth diapering – including the accessories. When you are first starting off, it is difficult to know what you will need. The diapers in the packages are enough to last two days between washings.
Thirsties Duo AIO is an All-In-One diaper. This means that the waterproof layer and absorbency are sewn together. There is a tunnel inside the diaper, in which you may add a Hemp Insert if additional absorbency is needed.
I have made two charts. One for size 1 and one for size 2. You will not buy both at the same time. The warranty for your diapers starts from the day of purchase, so only purchase the diapers that your baby can wear now.
Size 1:
Size 2:
Please choose from the two charts depending on what size your baby is. Weight and age recommendations are general, so please take a look at our sizing chart for your baby’s measurements.
Please send me an email at support@thirstiesbaby.com if you have any questions!

This is awesome! and I think it’s fairly generous too in the amounts. I don’t think the totals are that scary compared to disposables.
The DUO AIO is my favorite diaper ever and Ive tried many diapers. I love the cost break down, this chart would be perfect to show a mama considering cloth!
I really like the AIO! I have one question though – my daughter is using the size two and she is 15 months and about 25-27 lbs. The AIO I have is snaps and it is already a bit tight on her on the last setting across her tummy. Is that normal? Will the snaps bother her if the very last one is pressed against her skin and not snapped closed? Hope that makes sense – it’s kind of hard to describe. Other than that issue (which might just be my buddha-belly daughter) :) I LOVE your AIO!
Hi Karen,
Good news, we do have one for the Duo Wrap and Duo Hemp Prefold! http://www.thirstiesbaby.com/blog/getting-started-with-the-thirsties-duo-wrap-and-duo-hemp-prefold/ I wrote one for each product or product set. Let me know if you have any questions!
