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:

I’m expecting my first baby in the next 6-8 weeks, and my first cloth diaper purchase was two Thristies Duo wraps with 15 prefolds. Now I’m looking pretty seriously at the Thirsties Duo AIO’s. My stash so far consists of 1-2 of each of the types of diapers I’ve researched and think I’ll like best, then when my little man is here and we find out what works best for us, we’ll replace all the fitted XS diapers we bought for the newborn phase with the OS/Duos we like. I do LOVE that Thirsties are made in the USA, and so many people seem to prefer thirsties over many other products. I can’t wait to try mine out!!!
Thanks for the helpful info!
We LOVE our Thirsties Duo Wraps!! We use them over our kissaluvs fitted size 0 and also on prefolds! Hold in EBF poo like no other!
