A Diaper Story

We've been long-time fans of Pampers diapers. As a newborn, Isaac wore whatever diapers we received as gifts. We soon realized that not every brand/style of diaper is created equally. Pampers Swaddlers were our diaper of choice for our son. They seemed to fit him well and work the best. I had plans to use discount diapers like Luvs... but, yuck! Just not worth the money we would save if they didn't work. Next, we moved onto Pampers Cruisers. They were the next step up when Isaac outgrew the Swaddlers. Buying in big bulk boxes and using coupons allowed us to use the style we liked. Next up came Pampers Baby Dry... a step down from Cruisers, but still worked okay. But, then (insert happy music coming to a schreeching halt here)... we started getting leaks! Yuck... changing Isaac's clothes and sheets all the time was just not fun. Was it the new, cheaper diapers? Maybe. Nope. We went back to Cruisers and still had leaks.

So, we've said "So, long!" to Pampers, my friends. I read online that Huggies are recommended for both babies who are hefty and for boys. Hey (raises hand in air), I have a hefty baby boy! I broke down and bought a box of Huggies Supreme and love them! No leaks so far at all and he's been wearing them for three days. For the record, it wasn't a quantity issue (as in, too much in the diaper) that was making Isaac leak. The Pampers were plenty big. It was all about the FIT now that he's more mobile. To all the girls in Josh's family who swear by Pampers, I'm sorry I've broken the mold. Isaac is in Huggies!

Edited to add: He leaked. Wearing Huggies. Just after I finished posting, I went to get him from his nap. Wet pj's, wet bedding. :(
