Buying Disposable Diapers

[pinkpeony]

We use Pampers here too, my daughter has had sensitive skin and they are the only ones that doesn't seem to irritate her. We also use the Pampers Sensitive wipes, they work real well for us.

luvsponies We thought the Swaddlers were great. No leaks or weird smells, and we got them for a decent price. As DS grew, we had a hard time with leaks and the Huggies just worked better for his shape. I'm hoping the Pampers work out for a bit longer this time as Huggies Pure and Natural aren't easy to find in store anymore, which can be a pain. I'm also hoping DD will be less rashy than her brother so that we have more options diaper-wise.

This is pretty much the last diaper advice I have gotten from a friend who is pregnant with her second right now, her first is 4. She said that she absolutely loved swaddlers for infant/baby diapers but then loved huggies for the older years. She didn't give a reason why but that was what she suggested.

We do Amazon Prime Subscribe and Save and diapers and wipes magically arrive at my house the first of each month. I would buy a few different kinds. We tried several and are firmly set with Pampers for DS1. I'll make the assumption that we're going to use Pampers for this little guy, but I'm prepared to try other brands as well. It's crazy how different every baby is with diapers.

ETA- we used Swaddlers until DS was in size 3, then we moved to Baby Dry. We also use Cruisers now at size 5.

FTM, but have always liked the pampers swaddlers. We'll start with a small box but then will do the Amazon Mom thing.

Plus one. Having wipes every few months and diaps every month magically arrive is amazeballs dude. I think I'm sold only 2 months in and my guess is with a toddler and newborn in tow soon I'll be even more excited about it.

We also have my lip gloss, mascara, hair stuff, body wash and hot sauce that magically arrives!

We've used mostly Huggies and pampers for DS. I plan on using pampers early on with this one because (get ready for the shallow...) they smell like baby powder, and then baby smells like babies should smell without the respiratory issues of talc

We used pampers with ds until he started taking off his clothes so that he could see Sesame Street characters on his diaper. Ugh - boys.

My son does this with his pull-ups that have the Cars characters on them. Thankfully only while at home at least.

Anyone else doing the overpriced, eco-friendly disposables? We bought a few packs of Bambo and Honest Co. diapers to test out, based on reviews. I wanted to get a couple more brands in there to try, but reviews are mixed.

That's what I originally wanted to do, since cloth became not an option for us. But the overpriced part put us off. I was interested in Earth's Best.

I'm no expert, but I can tell you what we did/do.

The hospital put Huggies on Haden so we started buying Huggies. Didn't love them, especially once he sized up. Tried a small pack of Swaddlers, loved them. Used those for awhile. Tried a small pack of Target brand, hated them (still have some lying around). Back to Swaddlers.

I used to always buy at Target when they had GC deals because the prices were good and the GC was awesome (obviously). Now I have the diapers on Amazon Subscribe & Save because good price and convenient.

I added NB Swaddlers to our S&S the other day. Hopefully they work for Hunter as well as they have been for Haden.

It really is trial and error. You'll like some better than others and some will fit better than others.

I bought small packs at first, now I buy the big boxes. Once he starts getting close to sizing up, I buy smaller packs so I don't wind up with tons of left over of a size we can't use. Hunter already has a whole pack of size 2 or 3 waiting because I over-bought when Haden had to move to a 4.

Diapers are serious business.

I want to use the S&S on Amazon Prime, I love my Amazon! I am sure I am going to have to see how it goes with the little one - but I was curious, if they are delivering it monthly, what size box do you get?

We're using honest company. I actually didn't think the price was bad for the bundles so I'm rolling with it since I can set it up for a monthly delivery. If I end up not liking them I figure I can donate. I've heard really good things about Bambo so we might give those a shot too.

We're going to try Honest, too. I like the cute designs so I hope they work out
