The Duo Wrap is a waterproof cover, and you will need to add absorbency inside. Thirsties offerings for absorbency in the Duo Wrap are the Duo Hemp Prefold, Stay-Dry Duo Insert, and Duo Fab Fitted diaper. One of the benefits to using a two piece system is that you can use the wrap up to 5 times in between washings. This means that you need to buy less wraps than diapers or inserts. The following is some information about each option:

Cant Wait to give Thirties a try. A lot of girl i talk with on boards say you are one of the best out there. Im impatient and cant wait to start my 15 month old daughter on them, Its even better to be able to use them on our New bundle coming in June!
I really want to give these a try, tax time…
I was happy to see that Target carries your duo wrap diapers on their website. My hubby works there so we will get a discount when we order for our new addition soon. I love all your products.
As a CD newbie, I love explanations like this. It’s hard to know how and when and with what each CD element can be used. I can’t wait to get my prefolds so I can try out the Duo Wrap!
I use the duos with a cotton prefold, usually. I like the hemp ones, but too expensive for a whole stash. I pin the prefold for little guys, and trifold for toddlers. I love how I can do either with the duo, though in theory I do prefer sized covers.
