I grab the box of 8 or 12 and it’s under 15 dollars. It lasts for awhile in our home and I have two potty trained children and an 8 month old. I still use them to wipe and clean the older two after poops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-generic-baby-wipes-similar-to-huggies#post-2926809 Tue, 19 Apr 2022 11:47:17 +0000 Aria 2926809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use either the Amazon sensitive wipes or the Target fragrance-free. I have a slight preference for the Amazon ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-generic-baby-wipes-similar-to-huggies#post-2926807 Tue, 19 Apr 2022 08:02:04 +0000 Lahela017 2926807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The generic Aldi wipes are pretty close to Huggies from my experience. I agree with you, they have a nice feel to them. My parents always have them for us to use when we visit them.</p> <p>We use the fragrance free, sensitive skin Up&amp;Up ones from target. We shop there, so it's just more convenient and we like them too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-generic-baby-wipes-similar-to-huggies#post-2926805 Tue, 19 Apr 2022 07:27:26 +0000 krispi 2926805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know how they compare, but we've been using the Amazon sensitive / unscented kind for years. I have a subscription so they're auto-shipped regularly. I actually like the Amazon ones more than the Pampers wipes, which we get every now and then if we're running low. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-generic-baby-wipes-similar-to-huggies#post-2926804 Tue, 19 Apr 2022 07:03:42 +0000 togetherthroughlife 2926804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the Huggies Natural Care unscented wipes. But they keep getting more and more expensive! Looking for a generic alternative. I don’t like Pampers wipes at all. The consistency and feel and smell of the Huggies unscented is what I’m wondering if I can find something similar to. We’ve tried Kirkland/Costco but in my mind they’re a little more rigid than I would prefer. Tried the Kroger brand and don’t like those much. Help! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922441 Tue, 09 Feb 2021 12:50:09 +0000 agold 2922441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really ended up being okay with Huggies bought at costco. And I still use pampers wipes bought at Target. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922440 Tue, 09 Feb 2021 12:22:35 +0000 Fawn 2922440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never used Targer diapers, but we liked the Made Of brand on Amazon for newborn diapers. For size 1 we tried Andy Pandy, but the fit was weird, so we bought Honest diapers and have been using them since then (size 1 to her current size, 5/6). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922434 Tue, 09 Feb 2021 10:54:00 +0000 graceandjoy 2922434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had one bad box of the Target ones. I've used them for #1 and #2; almost called it quits with the bad box, (it was size 3). But then now so far all our size 4's have been good... </p> <p>Otherwise I like the Kirkland ones! Pretty similar to Huggies but IMO even better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922430 Tue, 09 Feb 2021 01:23:00 +0000 bees_knees 2922430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use pamper swaddlers newborn and exclusively use Amazon’s Mama Bear for size 1+ I feel like the fit is similar. (None of my kids could use Huggies without blowing them out on a regular basis!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922408 Mon, 08 Feb 2021 09:37:45 +0000 Lahela017 2922408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the Aldi diapers. They are the same price as the Target Up&amp;Up ones. We used the Target ones for sizes N-2 and like them though too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922405 Mon, 08 Feb 2021 00:21:13 +0000 karenbme 2922405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winter_wonder: target newborns constantly blew out for us. 😕 We’ve had success with Luvs and both versions of pampers, but Huggies are narrower and didn’t work as well for my daughter either. Like pp said, pampers swaddlers do have a perfume, but it doesn’t bother us and we get the best performance with them so that’s usually what we buy even though they’re not cheap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922402 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 21:44:40 +0000 winter_wonder 2922402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PurplePumps: I wish we had a Costco closer!

We tried pampers once and I didn't like the strong baby powder smell at all, esp after itv was mixed with pee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922399 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 15:18:37 +0000 bhbee 2922399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’m pretty loyal to pampers swaddlers. We never tried target for all the time, but did use the nighttime ones in larger sizes (maybe 4 or 5, can’t remember) in the lead-up to being night trained for my son and had good luck with them. That was also a few years ago! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/diapers#post-2922397 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 12:52:36 +0000 winter_wonder 2922397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Am I remembering correctly that Target diapers are good for Newborn and size 1 and then the quality is terrible? I thought I remembered this from DD, but that was almost 5 years ago! We switched to pampers swadlers and also liked those.</p> <p>What diapers do you like now? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2911059 Mon, 02 Mar 2020 13:31:53 +0000 agold 2911059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonJack: my second daughter is really prone to diaper rash. she gets is immediately once she has diarrhea. We use huggies, bought at costco. I've also had to get Nystatin prescriptions. Since her rashes come with diarrhea, I never thought about the diaper being the cause. Does your baby get the rash just by using the diaper, or only with diarrhea? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2911019 Sat, 29 Feb 2020 21:08:56 +0000 starlitsky 2911019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure if you knew this but Huggies and Kirkland diapers are made by the same company! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910987 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 23:49:34 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2910987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used Huggies wipes (travel pack) and DS had a horrible rash. We made sure to use nothing but Pampers wipes. While visiting others, they had the right size Huggies diapers and I tried those. After a few days, he got a rash. I've never changed from Pampers since. That was my first and before he was a year old. I'm now on child 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910986 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 23:35:25 +0000 jhd 2910986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used Huggies almost exclusively with our first, but I recently switched our second to Pampers. We used Luvs for a long stretch last year, but then they changed them and DS got a terrible rash. I think it coincided with teething so he was already prone to a rash, but it took a while to clear up. He was doing pretty well with Huggies, but I think he's more comfortable in the Pampers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910972 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 20:26:57 +0000 MrsSRS 2910972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonJack: yep. We had luck with Target's Up&amp;Up diapers </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910968 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 18:09:27 +0000 LemonJack 2910968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@karenbme: We had that issue with our first. Huggies just didn’t fit her well until she was much bigger. </p> <p>@JennyLayneAZ: I’m wondering if that’ll be us. I put him back in a Pampers Swaddler diaper this afternoon and the rash is gone again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910966 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 17:47:05 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2910966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, with DD1 the only kind of diapers we could use were the Pampers Swaddlers - all the way up until she potty trained. I tried Huggies and Luvs (I preferred the Luvs because they fit her best - she was/is tall and skinny) but she always always always had a rash until we switched back. She also has eczema and sensitive skin in general so we have to watch what kinds of soaps we use as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910963 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 16:33:12 +0000 MLE81 2910963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We (have) use(d) both brands with no issues...I’m in Canada though so not sure if that makes any difference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910962 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 16:29:48 +0000 karenbme 2910962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonJack: We used some huggies that we got at my shower and didn't have a rash issue, although DD was constantly blowing out in them so each diaper didn't stay on very long. We've been using Luvs for the past couple months and getting much better results. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910959 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 16:25:15 +0000 jennlin821 2910959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We mostly used cloth diapers, but when we did use disposables my DD could only be in Pampers Swaddlers... even other Pampers would cause a pimply-rash. </p> <p>Many people in my cloth diaper groups cloth because there babes are allergic to disposables. So I don't have a direct answer for you; but yes it is absolutely possible for your baby to be allergic to one kind of diaper or another because of the different plastic and chemicals used in each kind.</p> <p>Hope you figure out which type works best without too much more rash!! Good Luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/huggies-and-kirkland-diapers-causing-rashes#post-2910957 Fri, 28 Feb 2020 16:18:15 +0000 LemonJack 2910957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone had problems with Huggies or Kirkland diapers giving their baby a rash? DS is our third, and with our first two we used both of those often without issue, but I think they’re bothering this babe. He had a rash for nearly a month - tried a bunch of things to clear it up and it finally started going away with some Nystatin, then quickly cleared up a few days ago, at the exact time we switched from Huggies to Pampers. Yesterday I bought some Kirkland diapers and put DS in them, and today the rash is back. </p> <p>I’m already planning on returning an (open) box of Huggies to Costco because I took one diaper out and realized the entire box had a super strong chemical smell. Now I’m wondering if I’ll have to return the Kirkland ones too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-absorbent-nighttime-diaper-for-older-preschooler#post-2910864 Thu, 27 Feb 2020 14:59:09 +0000 MrsSRS 2910864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have fewer wet sheet issues with the CVS brand of GoodNites. And we do a bonus potty trip right before lights out, after stories and snuggles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-absorbent-nighttime-diaper-for-older-preschooler#post-2910854 Thu, 27 Feb 2020 13:57:33 +0000 MrsADS 2910854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@corduroy I have some of the diaper pads at home, we occasionally use them with my 21 month old, so I'll try that tonight and see if it helps. Hate changing wet sheets in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-absorbent-nighttime-diaper-for-older-preschooler#post-2910853 Thu, 27 Feb 2020 13:54:47 +0000 Corduroy 2910853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsADS: I don't have any recommendations but I'm in the same boat with my 4.5yo. We just switched to Goodnights but it didn't solve the issue. </p>
