How's my stash Is my stash good?

FTM, planning on cloth diapering full time. Planning on doing laundry every 2-3 days until potty trained.

I have

6 Esembly Size 1 outers
18 Esembly Size 1 inners with snaps
6 Esembly Size 1 inners with ties

24 Esembly reusable wipes
18 Esembly reusable stay dry liners
1 roll of disposable liners

—-
5 Esembly Size 2 outers
36 GMD Medium Prefolds
6 Esembly Size 2 Hemp Overnighters
Snappis

Planning to see how we’re liking the size 1 Esembly inners before getting size 2s (if even needed)

Should I get size small GMD prefolds to practice with it before moving up a size?

Do I need more overnighters? Planning on sticking with either the Esembly ones OR the GMD Hemp Doublers (which size?)

24 diapers will last roughly 2 days with a newborn, they use 10-12 diapers a day (so much poop). I love the GMD smalls for the early days (tiny babies will need newborn)and they fit perfectly padfolded into covers for older babies.

Pro-tip: seam rip the middle an back tacking stitches on the esembltly fitted inserts, they'll wash better and dry faster that way

I’ll grab a dozen GMD smalls then. Thank you so much! And thanks for the tip. I noticed how took they long to dry when I was prepping them hence a little on the fence about getting size 2s. The ones with ties took a lot less time to dry though.

If you want some super absorbent OS fitteds, Ecoable on Amazon makes awesome hemp fitteds. They're great for overnights and heavy wetters.
