Hi Jaymee, welcome to Cloth Nappy Tree.

There are lots of reviews on here of the different sorts of nappies and what works well for different ages / shapes and so on.

If you have a look at the classifieds, you should be able to pick up some pre-loved nappies at a decent price. You could also sell one the ones you have that they have outgrown too.

Good luck with finding new nappies and don't forget to ask questions if you need more help.

Hi

Have you contacted your local council? They might have a cheap cloth nappy scheme in your area.

Ours is sadly just closing down but that means that they are giving away free sets of prefolds, which although they are not that pretty, do the job.

Hi, you will find some good priced second hand items in the classifieds section. As your twins are already 5 months then a birth-to-potty option like bumGenius or any other BTP nappy would be a good option for you as you will be able to use them for Hope and Faith and your toddler.

Hi!

Also bear in mind tat you won't need that many more washable nappies for twins as you do for one, as your washing machine will only take a certain sized load anyway. You'll just need to wash a little more often. :giggle:
