What's the best way to get started with cloth diapers?

[kfarb]

It's a bit overwhelming, and I'm not sure where to start. I know I want to get one of those sprayers you can hook up to the toilet. DH is so not into the whole cloth diaper thing, so I want to make it as easy as possible, for both of us.

when i was first starting out i found it best to buy a different types preloved, that way your not going to end up with a whole bunch that you dont like.

what type do you want to go with?
birth to potty (btp)
sized
all in one/two (dont need a wrap)
fitted (need a wrap)
prefolds (like square terries that you need a wrap for)

if your in the US theres a site called diaper swappers that you can buy preloved from

Yes, do you have any kind of ideas what type you would like? Or any specific questions?

I don't know. I have honestly no idea where to even start looking. My cousin uses cloth diapers, I was gonna go with his brand which is Green Mountain. He actually has a pretty informative section about cloth diapers on his blog.

There's a site I found very helpful at first, which explains all the different sorts of nappies and their good and bad points. It's https://www.thenappyline.co.uk and I even had an online chat with them which was really helpful
