Pampers Swaddlers recall?
Turned on the news, and the first few seconds I saw was the last few seconds of a story about the new recall on Pampers Swaddlers diapers. Anyone else see this? I got a million Swaddlers at my shower! I wanted more details but what I'm finding isn't very reliable... TIA!

Re: Pampers Swaddlers recall?
Last I heard there wasnt a recall but that many parents were complaining about the new chemicals in the diapers causing diaper rash and chemical burns.

here's an article: https://cnmnewsnetwork.com/112291/diaper-recall-2010-looming-government-inspecting-procter-gamble-dry-max-diapers/
to sum up, its just a rumor but moms are complaining of a chemical rash brought on by the dry-max technology. They're being inspected right now but deny that their diaper is causing it. I have heard of moms complaining about pampers in general and rashes...but IDK my daughter has sensitive skin, she got diaper rash no matter what product we bought so I'm going to be skeptical until there's some actual facts. Swaddlers were amazing when she was first born, I hope that they work out their issues or get this resolved!
Proctor and Ganble is saying recall rumor is false:

I hope they figure something out! I don't want to use their diapers until they do.
It is all the pampers brand with MAX DRY. If it says max dry on the box/ bag it is beeing recalled. This is because it is causing some super nasty rashes on babies/ toddlers. I watched the snippet on my local news. If you google it Proctor and Gamble say no recall. Here is the link to that:

Here is the link to my local news clip that shows the rash. I am sure if you take them unopened you can exchage them for another type or store credits.

I got a box of Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive and a box of Pampers Swaddlers. Only the box of regular pampers swaddlers has the "dry max" logo on it...so I think the sensitive ones are ok. Keep checking the news though, just in case.
I'm keeping all of my diapers for now...until they're officially recalled or some hard facts come out about this.
Oh good! I was trying to examine the swaddlers sensitive box online with no luck. Thanks!
