I'm a diaper buying fool....

Stupid pamper has that dry max that totally sucks and I've been going all over the place last week and this week looking for regular pamper swaddlers and cruisers.  BRU had just a few left that were hidden where they closed the photo place and so I grab 3 boxes!  Now I have like 6 boxes of diapers in the spare room.  I feel like a freakin hoarder!

    oh no!  I loved the old swaddlers and started stocking up on the new ones...I'm hoping I don't hate them too!

    Good for you!  I bet that feels good.  I'm hearing so many bad things that I'm not even going to try the new ones.  We're using Cruisers right now that I got before the switch, and after that I think we'll be using Huggies or might go to cloth.

    I got a sample of the new ones and they totally suck.  They smell weird and it leaks.  Emmy NEVER had a leak with the old ones and the only time Ally leak was with the dry max.  If you look online, it has horrible reviews.  Target is totally out of the regular pamper swaddlers too.  Huggies gave Emmy a diaper rash and so didn't want to use it for Ally since she already has eczema issues.

    I heard the Target brand was really good though...that may be my last resort after my 6 boxes are finished. =)

    Better open your boxes and make sure they're the old brand since they released them without changing the boxes at first.  Hopefully that's not the case for you!  I'd just hate for you to find out down the road that they weren't the ones you were hoping for.

    We switched from Pampers to Huggies Little Movers.  Love them!  I've heard good things about Target ones too.

    I'm getting worried myself, I only have four more jumbo packs of 2s before I'm going to have to bust into the new kind.  I'll give them a shot since my mom picked up some for us but I don't have high hopes after everything I've been reading :(

    I really love the target brand, Aidan has been in those since just before he turned one.  I'll definitely be trying them out for Evan as soon as we run out from our stash.

    the only difference I know of is that the couple of packs of old ones had the green stripe to tell if the diaper was wet and the new ones don't. Have you heard about the people claiming the new ones caused chemical burns?

    I never was a big Pampers fan, but J almost died last week when I bought 400 Huggies (to use coupons) and we already had 200 at home.

    Getting them for a low price is like winning the lottery to me.  Well, almost.

    I had no idea about the negative Dry Max reviews until now! We're on our last pack of the old Cruisers and I just bought a big box of the dry max. I've been looking up the reviews online and the chemical burns are scary! Not sure if I want to try them now, but we've always used Pampers so I don't know which other brand to try!
