"How Many Diapers Do You Actually Have?"

I get asked this exact questions ALL.THE.TIME. And honestly, I'm not really sure how many cloth diapers we have...until now.

I took advantage of the diapers coming out of the laundry to take some pics of the various brands and types we have, and to also count just how many dipes we actually own.

I really shouldn't be shocked by this...but, whoa. We do have a lot! Haha! But, to be fair, they ALL get used (or will get used very shortly), and I think when we have two in cloth in 3 short months our giant stash may not seem all that giant anymore. PLUS, the upside to such a big stash: you have to wash less, the diapers get less wear (and then less tear and stress), and they overall stay in better shape and condition than if you have a smaller stash. I will admit that we will be adding to our stash very soon--we are having a "Squishy Tushy" cloth diaper party for #2 in late February where everyone will bring us one cloth diaper for #2's tush.

Anyways, here's the breakdown of what we have...grand total at the bottom (yeah, I'm making you read--or at least scroll--through the individual breakdowns first. Meanie, huh?!!) Cloth friends out there: how big is your stash? Does it look like this? Are you committed to one brand/style or are you like us and have a hodge podge? I'd love to know!
