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.
The Thirsties Duo Wrap and Duo Hemp Prefold is a two piece diapering system. The Duo Wrap is a waterproof cover that can be adjusted at the waist and the rise. The Duo Hemp Prefold is a flat, absorbent diaper. You can either fold it and fasten it on baby with a Snappi or diaper pins and fasten the Duo Wrap over it; or simply trifold, lay into the Duo Wrap, and fasten on baby. You may fold a Hemp Insert into the prefold 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.

I’ve never used a duo wrap because i feared they were too difficult but now am excited to try!
Thank you so much for putting this together, and showing how inexpensive cloth diapering really can be! A lot of my friends say their biggest reason for choosing disposables is the start up cost of cloth diapering. This chart is super helpful, and I will definitely be passing it along!
At first I thought the 7 covers for size 1 was overkill, but with breastfed poop, I’d have to agree with the need for that many. The transition to size 2 happens around the time that solid food is getting well established. We’re almost there, and using fewer covers, on average.
This is really helpful! I never really knew the prefold to cover ration that would be good to start out with.
This is great info! We’re just starting out CD’ing and I love when companies break down what we’ll need :)
