We also were gifted a ton of different brands and are working through them since I'm too lazy to return. Behind swaddlers we like Luvs and pampers baby dry. Huggies don't fit him well. I agree that it probably has a lot to do with your LO build ! As for sizing - he wore NB for like one day and we jut switched him to size 2 this past week. He is 12 weeks tomorrow </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714419 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 13:55:57 +0000 allison 714419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like Nature Babycare diapers. Eco friendly (no plastic!) and they work really well for us (very absorbent for my heavy wetter). You don't have to worry about chemical burns and stuff with them because they don't have all that synthetic stuff in them. You can get them from Amazon and they're around the same price as Pampers Swaddlers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714327 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 12:47:37 +0000 mediagirl 714327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used Huggies first because the hospital had those. They were great for newborn and size 1. At size 2, we moved to Pampers Swaddlers. We actually found a great deal at Lowes one day. They were replacing the current ones with boxes of a new brand look. We bought a cart full of 2's and I said we will use these whether we like them or not! I'm all about a sale and would definitely stock up if you have coupons or see good deals. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714314 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 12:36:55 +0000 shopaholic 714314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Hospital gave us Pampers Swaddlers. Though we were gifted some Huggies and some no name brand and I have used them all, DH is only comfortable using Pampers like he started on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714308 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 12:31:06 +0000 heffalump 714308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only use disposable for travel. But my first diaper was seventh generation and they didn't work at all for us. Lo leaked constantly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714296 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 12:21:28 +0000 googly-eyes 714296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@marionberry: Huggies aren't bad either... DH &amp; I are just a little stuck in our ways! ;) If we had a great discount I'd switch. I also didn't realize until recently (because the huggies we had were gifted) that huggies also makes the ones with a wetness indicator. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714292 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 12:18:28 +0000 googly-eyes 714292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Skipping over the comments but we got pampers swaddlers (what the hospital also used) and never had problems with them, so we stuck to them! We've also tried Huggies and Earths Best, which were ok too, but we're a pampers family! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714273 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 12:02:29 +0000 dagret 714273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L must be a freak, but we really haven't had any problems with pampers (swaddlers and baby dry), Huggies, luvs or seventh generation. I Keep swapping based on what's on sale. </p> <p>The only things I've hated so far were Huggies wipes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714269 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 11:57:14 +0000 MrsRcCar 714269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love Pampers Swaddlers for DS. Huggies didn't work for us. We regifted a bunch of Huggies and Luvs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714213 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 11:15:04 +0000 marionberry 714213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work for a hospital so we get fab deals on diapers that you can't find in a store. The bummer thing is that our hospital just switched from Pampers to Huggies and now given all of your comments I'm really bummed that I'm getting a great deal, but you all seem to like Pampers better as a whole. I hope that I didn't just buy a ton of diapers that I'm going to hate. I'd really like to stick with Huggies given the amazing discount. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714168 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 10:33:33 +0000 bpcmarj 714168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: also, my Mom is in NC and finds the best diaper deals at drugstores (CVS and Walgreens). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714162 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 10:31:21 +0000 bpcmarj 714162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used pampers swaddlers and swaddlers sensitive for newborn-size 3. Then, went to cruisers, which are still really soft. But, the price was getting to me! At first we switched to Luvs and I didn't care for the scent. But now, I don't even notice it and they are way softer than generic brands, but about the same price. With coupons at BJs I can get a box of 188 size 4s for around $25. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714131 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 10:18:46 +0000 SugarplumsMom 714131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We stocked up on Pampers Swaddlers and I was really happy with them. I liked them so much, I dreaded having to switch when LO got too big for them. We got them on AmazonUK and so far, they're the cheapest I've found where I'm at. But check every so often because the price fluctuates even online. I did notice that when they are really cheap on Amazon, the price doesn't last that way for long, so you have to move fast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714124 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 10:13:31 +0000 T-Mom 714124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: I totally agree! Baby's build has a lot to do with what works best. Also gender due to placement of pee...</p> <p>We tried huggies first but DD used pampers swaddlers and then baby dry best (cruisers at the time were undergoing reformulation and giving some babies chemical burns which they have since fixed). DS does better with Huggies.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714089 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 09:47:42 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 714089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: re: Swaddlers v Swaddlers Sensitive, this may help:</p> <p><a href="http://www.babygearlab.com/Disposable-Diaper-Reviews/Pampers-Swaddlers-Sensitive" rel="nofollow">http://www.babygearlab.com/Disposable-Diaper-Reviews/Pampers-Swaddlers-Sensitive</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714080 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 09:38:14 +0000 Bao 714080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Huggies didn't work well in the beginning, either did Target newborn but they work now. I have always liked Pampers but they are bit pricey for our budget. We got a lot for our shower though, so that was nice. Luvs were a good brand too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714073 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 09:31:45 +0000 hilsy85 714073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've only used pampers and we like them!

The luvs and huggies just didn't do well with him. I would maybe buy some, but you never know what's going to work or not </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714020 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 08:54:03 +0000 photojane 714020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTiz: hubs &amp; I have very sensitive skin, but Sadie isn't bothered at all by the regular Swaddlers. They do a great job of wicking the moisture away from her skin. We were gifted some sensitives, and we liked them, but the regular Swaddlers work just as well. We were given a bunch of Huggies too, and liked them. We tried the BRU brand, but they feel like construction paper &amp; she peed through them several times. We love the Swaddlers, so we'll stick with those until she needs size 4's.</p> <p>As far as sizing, Sadie still fits in newborns at 2 months. We were told to just use 1's and skip buying any newborns to save money, but we've used all the newborns we bought or were gifted. 1's were way too big for the first 5-6 weeks! You might want to get at least one small case of newborns just in case you get a little bub. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-714007 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 08:39:38 +0000 regberadaisy 714007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did stock up a bit when Target had their crazy sales but I wouldn't go too crazy. Def save your receipts. I tried Huggies Little Snugglers first and still use Huggies Little Movers now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-713975 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 08:03:11 +0000 sorrycharlie 713975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes, we have exclusively used pampers swaddlers. I used those nannying so I was already used to them. I used cruisers, too, when they outgrew swaddlers - but now they have size 4 and 5 in swaddlers! :)</p> <p>ETA - I'd stock up on 1s and 2s, I plan to skip NB size entirely next time. My hospital doesn't even stock NB size, they put the babies in size 1 and close it tight. I had a ton of NB leftover. We used probably 1 case of NB (but was unnecessary), then 3 cases (maybe?) size 1 because she was in it until 2 months old. Then she was in size 2 for awhile, and now has been in size 3 for a couple months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-713963 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 07:48:45 +0000 sunny 713963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We loved Pampers Swaddlers which is what the hospital had. I also had previously bought Huggies Pure and Natural and ended up liking those as well.</p> <p>Wasnt a fan of Pampers Baby Dry. The scent bothered me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-713961 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 07:47:12 +0000 loveisstrange 713961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah. We started out on Huggies Little Snugglers and used those through size 2. Then we switched to Pampers Baby Dry 12 hour and love those too!</p> <p>We hated Luvs (they have a nauseatingly strong smell to me). I also like the Target Brand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-713954 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 07:43:09 +0000 CarrieLouWho 713954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pampers Swaddlers are our fav. I don't mind huggies though! Stocking up in multiple sizes is a great idea, I wouldn't do a ton in the newborn size though. We had 2 packs and we didn't use any. Lots of 1,2&amp;3s for the first 6 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-like-the-first-brand-of-diapers-you-tried-1#post-713937 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 07:15:34 +0000 MrsTiz 713937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What is the difference between swaddlers and sensitive swaddlers? I have really sensitive skin so tthere's a good chance LO will too.I'm relieved to see almost everyone likes the same kind, that makes it easy to decide lo! </p>
