some random thoughts: - plastic pants not so good - I tended to only use them if we ran out of anything else, or as 'training' pants, with nothing in them. we did have some fabulous plastic pants that breathed really well, but no idea where we got them, spent much time on two continents trying to locate them. I was pretty happy with the fluffies brand pants (don't buy target brand - no gusset) - they have more reliable elastic than most plastic ones. - snappies are vicious. - if you can't find what you are after in the shops, ask Freecycle - I gave all of my stuff away either there or to friends, I'm pretty sure that there would be other people out there ready to pass on. - I always found nappy liners to be a nuisance. You can't flush them, you aren't supposed to put them in the bin with poo still on them, so you still end up washing the poo off, and they don't survive more than a wash or two. I have heard of people buying chux, and cutting them up to make liners, but never tried it myself. I just stuck with nappies with no liners, and it seemed to work pretty well.
