Difference between Pampers Swaddlers and Swaddlers Sensitive?

Jessica&Brett

Anyone know what the difference is between the regular newborn swaddlers and the swaddlers sensitive?  We planned on using the sensitive, and have been so far, but I accidentally just placed an order on diapers.com for the regular swaddlers.  Should I switch out my order or are they pretty similar?  Anyone have issues with one or the other?

I have never used the sensitives, they weren't out when M was a baby.  I think they have something on them that is supposed to let you know when baby is wet??? If so, that is the differance, swaddlers don't have that.

Overlake provided the Swaddler sensitive and they have a line to tell whether your dc has peed.  I think the line changes green or maybe it is originally green and turns yellow.  The regular swaddlers were fine but I know Pampers changed the quality of their cruisers in the summer.  I'm not sure if the swaddlers were effected by it.

I have yet to figure out the difference. Seriously. We used both and they looked nearly the same to me. The regular Pampers Swaddlers has the pee indicator strip as well (sizes Preemie, NB and 1 do at lesat), so it isn't that. I think it's just more "hypo allergenic", but seriously I put the diapers side by side and they looked the same to me.

I wouldn't pay more for sensitive (are they more?) unless you have a problem.  Those regular swaddlers are soooo soo soft... I can't imagine they need anything more sensitive than that.  And they do all have the pee indicator thing.  They didnt' have that 3 years ago.    I still think it's a stupid "feature" though.  It's pretty easy to know if a diaper is wet!

Hi. I work at Pampers so I thought I'd help answer your question. Pampers Sensitive Swaddlers have the wetness indicator, plus they have more lotion. Also, the ears (which is the stretchy part that wraps around your baby's hip) and the outer cover are more breathable on Sensitive Swaddlers. HTH. Thanks.
