CD cover sampler

[csa12]

Suprisingly enough ( to me at least, but probably not to other experienced Cd'ers) my 7 1/2 week old son has outgrown his cd covers!!! Does anyone know of a decent cd cover sampler I should try out? I am mainly looking for a good variety of covers and don't mind paying a little more to try different things.


So far so good with the CD experiment. Thanks to everyone for their excellent advice helping me get set up,

Cheryl,

I'm new to CD'ing, too, but haven't seen a cover-only sampler in my searches. The good news, though, is that the samplers aren't much cheaper than buying things individually, so you could just make your own sampler. www.naturalbabies.com has a lot of choices in stock; you might want to start there. eBay is another place - the smaller stuff tends not to have as many buyers and is in good shape because babies grow so quickly!

Hi Lori -
Thanks for your response. You are right, I found a few samplers that peaked my interest, but nothing I loved. Just in case you or anyone else is looking, I found a sampler at earthbaby.com that included a FB, bumpy day and night, bummis, and prowraps for about $70. There is also a sampler at NaturalEbaby that included CPF's, a FB, 2 JB, a prowrap AIO and cover, and bumpy day cover for $65. Finally Punkinbutt.com has a singles sampler that includes a FB, stacinator, bumkins and other cd accessories for about $65.

The sampler at earthbaby looked like the most intersting to me, but I am worried about how much more Liam will grow (so quickly!). I may wait to invest in more specialized covers until he is a bit older (maybe after he's hit the 3 month mark?) I wonder what other people have done?

Thanks again,
Cheryl :)

You can get prowraps seconds for $3 each + $5.95 shipping (for up to 7) by calling them directly, if you are looking to try those cheaply.

Cheryl,

Do a search in this forum on with CD in the keyword. I know there was post a while back where someone had gotten a good sampler that was only covers but I can't remember who it was or where they got it! HTH!

Is this the thread you're talking about? On post 13 Nohomama talks about a "Just the Wraps" package she got at earthbaby.com.

Yeah, that's it! I knew it was out there somewhere but was in a hurry when I posted. Thanks for looking it up!

Thanks everyone! That's the package I was considering. Now I am wondering if I should wait until Liam is finished wtih his growth spurts until investing in more expensive covers. If I wait I will just get some prowraps to tide us over till Liam is 3-4 months old.

What does everyone else think?

Hey there. I loved the "Just the Wraps" package and I waited until Lola outgrew all her newborn wraps before ordering it the first time (Lola grew FAST but not, it seems, as fast as Liam). She was probably somewhere between 2 1/2 & 3 months old at the time.

Good luck,

Hi Sarah -
That seems to make the most sense as far as getting the most bang for the buck. It's funny - at birth Liam was a peanut at 6 pounds 6 ounces, but now I think he is making up for lost time as far putting on weight. Now I am sure he is at least 10 pounds!!

Thanks again for the input!
Cheryl :)
