Intermediate Kit

The Intermediate Kit is for babies 15 pounds and up.  This is for you if you prioritize comfort, simplicity and value.  

Size: 15-28 pounds or from about 6 months and up.

Definition: The diaper is the absorbent part and the cover is the waterproof part that goes over the diaper.

Whether you are trying cloth diapering for the first time when baby is a little older or you are tired of reusable plastic one-size diapers or the single use diapering options, this kit will give you what you need to do it both economically and comfortably.  No bumpy rise snaps on either of the covers.  No plastic (polyester) next to baby's bottom. The prefolds fit flexibly and are easy to wash. 

This kit includes:

• 24 Cloth-eez Prefold Diapers size Intermediate (this size is the most one-size-like fit of the prefolds for size 13-28 pounds or so.  
• 4 Mommy's Touch Covers One size cover 15 -30 pounds.
• 2 Thirsties Covers snap closure size medium 18-28 pounds. 
• 1 pack of Snappi Fasteners
• 2 sets of Diaper Pins
• 1 Thirsties Deluxe Wet Bag

* No print or size substitutions on this kit. 

Add a pack of doublers to your cart also if you don't already own inserts or doublers yet.  Since many people choosing this kit already have inserts on hand from the one-size pocket diaper that they are switching from, we decided not to include them in the kit.  But if you don't have them, add one 12 pack of large doublers to the cart because they are helpful anytime you can't keep up with the diaper changes and need some extra time between changes.  The additional absorbency that adding a doubler provides can be quite handy.  If you don't have baby wipes yet, add 2 packs of cloth wipes, too, or more if you want to use the Muslin Wipes as washable diaper liners.

The diapers and the covers in this kit are chosen with baby's comfort in mind. The size Intermediate prefolds are just a little bit less bulky than others, which is nice for fitting under clothes, and also nice for easy washing and faster drying.  These items fit and work together well.  Do you need to fasten the diaper under the cover?  No. You can just lay the diaper in the cover and fasten the cover.   But you can use the pins or the Snappi if you want to.  We encourage you to give fastening a try! Once you get good at it, you will probably find that it does work a bit better when fastened.  Many families fasten sometimes and trifold other times as is convenient. Do what works for you at various times of the day and at various stages of baby's ever-changing development.  A fastened prefold diaper is really cute and effective. Learn to pin. Learn to use a Snappi Fastener.

The absorbency is natural unbleached cotton made from organic sourced raw cotton fiber, so you'll need to do several hot wash cycles to prepare them for use. The initial wash cycles to wash off those natural cotton oils before first use is a one-time thing.  Countries of origin found here.
