It looks like Gerber cloth diapers are recommended for burp cloths but which type? Birdseye vs heavyweight gauze & prefold vs flatfold?

Kushies Washable Pre-folded Diapers, White are the ones that are so much better than the Gerber cloth diapers.

I just bought the 3ply prefold and they are so thin. I usually sew on them to make them pretty but I don't like the new weight, so I caved and purchased the heavyweight gauze prefold, and they are very nice for burp cloths. that is what I would recommend. they are sold in a 5 pack for about 12.50 (at walmart if you can find them) here are the heavy weigh gauze I ended up buying instead. Gerber 5 Count Heavyweight Gauze Prefold, White just about the same price as walmart

Birdseye was what I was using until the quality changed. I am at a loss as to what to use now. The newer ones just look cheap and don't make nice looking burpies...

If your looking for burp cloths prefold will be fine. If your looking for cloth diapers is recommend the heavy weight gauze. The prefold just aren't thick enough to be used as diapers.

I would say green mountain are slightly more absorbent. They are great but like with any prefold you'll have to change more often than a stay dry insert or disposable. I would go up to the ones with the red edge. It says they are the same size but they are actually a little bigger and much more absorbent.

Similar but I prefer the Gerber brand and quality, have had no problems with either. Hope this helps, if you have no preference I would go by price�

I haven't used them yet as my son is a bit too small still. I did fold a prefold and stuff it in the pocket part of the diaper to see it it would fit (it did), and by my research they should work if you want to use them instead of the microfiber liners.

I think you want the 4x8x4 infant diapers. Search for "OsoCozy - Indian Cotton - Prefold Cloth Diapers Premium 4x8x4". They have blue stitching.

Hi! I use bum genius organic all in one. These inserts are great. They seem big initially. U cant place it between the two inner linings but u can lay it on top and the diaper can contain it. Its pretty much the diameter of the entire diaper and is a touch longer but I prefer that because sometimes the snaps on the diaper roll in and pushes on babys belly so this is a nice cushion. I made it work and it keeps baby dry at night. A little bulk y for daytime use though.

we order the flat fold Birdseye diapers for Lutheran world relief not the prefold ones so I couldn't tell you anything about the prefold ones. Sorry.

Cottonbabies flip and thirsties duo wraps both work with prefolds really well

That is what these were purchased for and my Grandaughter's parents love these diapers, used as burp clothes. No modifications are needed.

I have the oso cozy unbleached Birdseye flats and a few oso cosy toddler prefolds. The quality of the prefolds is fine, but they are huge, far too big for my average height, skinny 20 month old. I'm pretty happy with the flats, though, they are what I use most. For prefolds, I've actually found the dandelion diapers (either bamboo blend or cotton, DSQ) to be a trimmer, better fitting product. More size options, too.

Yes, I have used these with a newborn. The prefolds I used were large enough for a 1+ year old, so the diaper as a whole was quite large. But the wrap worked as expected.

You don't really need it but it makes clean/wash super easy. You don't need to soak the cloth diapers and I also don't have poop stains on the prefolds. I don't use bleach on the prefolds either and I strongly believe that it's because of the prefolds :)

It's a different brand but it's recommended for cloth diapers. I wash my BG with it.

For a newborn, 36 is ideal. However, these have a lot more absorbency than a newborn needs, and more than the average older baby needs besides during naps/nighttime. Flats are great for newborns all the way until toddlerhood, and these hemp prefolds are ideal for nighttime/naptime.

I used the small as inserts for pocket diapers. Which would be more like pad folding for a cover. If you have a toddler you can get a medium, but I wouldn't go larger than that. They we're trim enough to not be as bulky as microfiber but more absorbent. I have since had to abandon all pockets for fitteds because my toddler is such a heavy wetter. I used them on a daily basis diapering 2 babies. They held up pretty well to the daily abuse.

These absorb well for us. There the only prefolds I've ever tried. I also boiled for about 40 min and they quilted up nice and thick and shrunk significantly. They lay perfect in a cover I don't imagine I'd be able to wrap around my baby and snappi them. This might sound dumb but I didn't realize before I bought them, these stay very wet on babies bottom. Definitely use with fleece liners or it's like a wet rag on their bum every time you change them :\

These are not really bulky. Not the thinest ones but not too bulky. I would say go for it :) Although I would recommend more these ones http://www.amazon.com/OsoCozy-Pack-Birdseye-Unbleached-Diapers/dp/B004GTLRY4/ref=sr_1_4?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1424973111&sr=1-4 The best from all different ones me and my husband tried. Really great.
