What Diapers Does Your Baby(s) Wear?

im just wondering what kind of diapers does everyone use on their child? I have had problems with leaky ones and I finally found that .Pampers was the best choice for us. We went through almost every kind that .Walmart carries. It holds everything in better. Wink

I started using .Huggies when .Jaylon was a newborn. I really liked that they had the belly button cut out and they seemed so much more snug than pampers.
I'm sure when he gets a bit bigger and you get less in a pack .I'll use whatever is cheapest and keeps him the dryest.

Pampers are the best diapers to use. I only use pampers and Luvs diapers on my daughter. Huggies are cheap and i had a horrible time with them. They were always leaking. The huggies for newborns with the belly button didnt fit my daughter. I had to rolled them down so that the diaper wouldnt rub on her belly button.

We use pampers. We got by with using the wal-mart brand for awhile when she was younger, but we just tried some again and it was a no go. She leaked everywhere. We tried luvs when she was younger, but they were like a cardboard box and didn't fit well at all, causing leakage. And huggies we didn't like either. So now we stick to only pampers. My mom recently tried luvs again (for her house) and they seem stretchier than I remember, so maybe they change as the sizes go up?

Diapers
Posted: 07-12-07 08:08am

My girls all wore huggies diapers. and pampers for pull ups expect my youngest she wears huugies night time pullups. I have found then very skinny children like my premies do better with huggies because they seem more narrow and huggies for bigger children because they need the room. My sister had a baby same time 5 days before mine were born to be correct. She could never used huggies and di not like them she swears by pampers. Think it really depends on your baby and what they are like. I could not ever use the cheapy brand as my girls would either leak through or get a rash from them. Also the style and sizes have changed in huugies since my girls were i them they used to carry a 1-2 size diaper and my girls wore those for almost a year my girls at age one only weighed 15 -16 lbs. Also I only use huggies wipes that are stronger and do not have a strong scent to them. If you find that you used 1 package and then the next you start leaking measure them to see it they are the correct size on more than 1 occassion they packaged the wrong size in the wrong packaging. Just caal huggies, pampaers, luvs they will replace them for you also if the tabs just rip off as well. They will send you a coupon for a new package.

We use Seventh Generation Unbleached diapers. They use some recycled materials and They are not as harsh on the environment, and their company is very globally conscious. Plus, they stay in place and don't smell like diapers.

They have them at most of the natural food stores where I live, and at a couple of the regular supermarkets. the company also makes paper towels, TP, and cleaning products. I have been very pleased with all of their products.

i'll have to check into that. i feel guilty for using disposable diapers at all. if my laundry room were easier to get at i might do cloth but i almost kill myself going up and down the basement stairs sometimes.

Do you have diaper service where you are? They will provide you with everything you need to do cloth diapers, they will pick up the nasty ones, and supply you with fresh clean cloth nappies each week. They use a ton of chemicals, though. That is why I didn't do the diaper service. And I barely have tie to make sure everybody has clean undies to wear!
