I never counted how many diapers I changed with any of my kids, but I remember when my kids were at the newborn stage, I was changing their pants upwards of a dozen (or more) times a day, and having used cloth diapers, my guess is, I went through more diapers than a mother using Pampers would have gone through.
Nonetheless... 12 diapers per day @ 7 days a week = 84 diapers per week
In a month... 336 diapers
In a year... 4000 (plus) diapers
For a 2-3 period... 8000-10,000 diapers.
Adding, I double diapered always, so that would have bumped-up the number of diapers I went through in my home.
6 kids @ 8000-10,000 diapers per child... approx. 60,000 diapers.

Putting things into perspective for the family in question... approx. 150,000 diapers.
Can't imagine what the bill would be for that if disposables were/are used.
