i would defo recommend speaking to your local council. I would try a few different nappies and remember what works for 1 baby won't always work for a 2nd baby (due to every baby being build slightly different)
I make & sell all in ones but have had alot of enquires about pockets (they dry quicker) so am looking at doing those also in the future.
Prefolds/flats - quick drying, cheap, can leak if not fitted correctly, need a wrap cover
Fitted - shaped nappy so better fit, cheap, quick drying, need a wrap cover
Pocket - quick drying, can be extra boosted for night time use, can be a little faffy
All in one - takes slightly longer to dry, everything you need is built into the nappy so don't need to remember extra bits, slightly more expensive
in regards to snaps or aplix - don't right off aplix because remember disposable nappies are basically a aplix fastening so it's no different, you will also find with aplix you will get a wider range of fitting without risking leaks if baby is between snap sizes. Snaps do look nicer in my opinion but for better range of fitting then aplix is better
