Newborn CDs & Sposies?

With the trial packages available on some sites and the fact OS (one size) cloth diapers typically do not fit newborns, I have been debating on getting a newborn size diaper package for our son. I am due at the end of February. However, since we are not planning on having anymore kidos the newborn diapers will not be used again. I will have to sell them and he will only be in them for a short while. Typically babies can fit into OS diapers until they reach about 10 pounds or are between 2 and 3 months old.

Also from what I have read, fitteds and pre-folds seem to be the best newborn option and both require a cover. My husband does not want to even consider pre-folds and I have to admit I am a bit intimidated by them as well. Some fitteds after you factor in the cost of the covers as well can get a bit expensive for a 2 to 3 month usage. I may be using disposables until my little guy gets big enough for the OS diapers that I have.

On an additional note. We have decided to try Smartipants. Kelly's Closet has a special on a package of three.
