Tried searching the board but couldn’t find anything...
What do you HBers think of the Amazon diapers? We’re traveling to my parents’ with my 4mo, and I want to have some diapers delivered there, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to try a new brand. We’re currently using (and loving!) the Costco diapers.

I used Huggies for the most part with my son, but I switched to the Mama Bear brand before we went into pulls ups (probably used them for 3 months) and they worked great. I didn't have any leaking or blow outs; but to be honest he hasn't peed while asleep in close to a year so I don't know how they hold up to lots of pee.

@Sams Mom: Cool! Glad to hear you liked them and that they worked well for you!

We've used them exclusively for baby #3 and I've been happy with them. We used Pampers Swaddlers with our other 2 kids and I'd say they are comparable. We do have a ton of leaks at night but its because DS is a side sleeper so he pees out the side of the diaper, when he sleeps on his belly or back they work fine! Also love the Amazon brand wipes, its nice to just subscribe and not ever buy diapers or wipes in a store!

@ineebee: They felt just as "soft?" as like a Lil Snuggler on the inside, and I didn't have quite as much fuzzies to deal with either (my son manages to accumulate fuzz around where he was circumcised, so I rate heavily based on fuzz)

I have never used the Mama Bear diapers but was curious as well. We have (faithfully) used diapers from the Honest Co., and, in a pinch, Aden & Anais has really soft all natural diapers as well. Both can be purchased off of Amazon (in single packages and "club boxes") and sent out via Prime. I don't know if it is helpful at all but we have sent a few pkgs (1 Honest overnights and 2 regular diapers) to my in law's home and it worked out beautifully.

@Sams Mom: Yes, the fuzz! My older DS too!
@Kaohinani: Thanks for the reply! I’m considering the Amazon diapers more for the price than anything else, so Honest and the like aren’t really on my radar at the moment.

By the way, it bothers me SOOO much that I forgot the apostrophe in “Amazon’s” in the title of this thread. Shudder shudder shudder. That’s what I get for multitasking. Tsk tsk.

@ineebee: I, absolutely, understand the price point. I wandered upon your post for that very reason, actually.
You must be an educator or work in an editorial field if your own grammar and use of punctuation to show possession bothers you "after the fact."

@ineebee: I could spot that from a mile away!
If you do, indeed, try the Mama Bear diapers and approve of them, would you update your post? I'd love to hear (read) what you think.

@Kaohinani: Definitely an occupational hazard! Lol. And yes, I’ll definitely update the post!

@ineebee: Lololol. You got the "hazzard" (*hazard) joke ... I have to correct students on that one, as well as "buisness," (business) and "dessent." (decent) That and homophones. It makes me nutty.
Anyway, thank you.

@ineebee: I thought they were nice enough quality but fit a little narrow. Similar to how target fits.

Another option is I've used Amazon Warehouse to get good diaper deals for delivery.

@mrsbubbletea: Hmm! Good to know.
@DesertDreams88: Oh?? I have not heard of this option! I'll look into it, thanks!

The boxes are always sealed and so are the diaper packages inside. This explains the warehouse https://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000656811

@DesertDreams88: This is what I was speaking of as well ... In between my Honest.com orders, I place diaper and training pant "club box" orders on Amazon from the warehouse. (When we travel, I also send small orders to wherever we are staying.) Easy-peasy and the prices are spectacular! Thank you for articulating (and affixing a link) when I failed.

@ineebee: we switched to amazon mama bears a few months ago after exclusively using earths best for both of our kids. All of a sudden I found it impossible to get my babys size in earths best anywhere online so we switched. I like them a lot. They are cheaper but still have the no bleach advantages of earths best. They also have the wetness indicator that huggies and Pampers have. But not that awful scent like Pampers. I would totally recommend them.

@Mrs. Pajamas: Oh, I cannot STAND the smell of Pampers!
I really like the Mama Bear diapers! They’re soft, bleach free, and we’ve had no leaks with them.

@Mrs. Pajamas: Ooh I looove the wetness indicator! I didn't know it had that -- good to know!
@Jennibenni: Yay for no leaks! Awesome, I'm really excited to try these!
I decided to go ahead and order the Mama Bear diapers. It'll be so nice to have a nice, cheap, easy-to-access (yay Prime!) back-up when we can't get to Costco to stock up immediately. Thank you all!
