Disposable diaper dilemma
When DS was born we ordered a massive supply of Pampers Swaddlers since we liked those best, and we're running out. Should we try DryMax and risk the rash? Other suggestions? Huggies did not work out for us but I'm open to others.

Re: Disposable diaper dilemma
We have been using the DryMax with no issues. I say give it a try unless your DS has really sensitive skin.
for real?? he's 9 months old and you're JUST running out of diapers. wow, congrats, that is some good planning!!
we have been using the Dry Max for several weeks and haven't had a problem. Two of my non-Bump mom friends are using them, too, and haven't had any issues. I really like them because they are a lot thinner. You could just buy a small package of them to try them out.
I will pass your compliments along to my DH, who made the crazy bulk order after creating a spreadsheet that modeled DS's growth curve and correlates to expected diaper usage. I will note that this crazy bulk order kept DS in diapers that were a little too small a little too long and resulted in donating a box, too.
We switched to Costco brand and I've been really happy with them. Huggies also did not work for us.
ETA: BabyCrown doesn't particularly have sensitive skin, but I did notice some irritation after the switch to DryMax, so I just switched brands to be on the safe side.
My advice on dry max is to buy a small pkg just to try them. I bought large boxes assuming we'd have no issues, and Daniel ended up with a raging rash literally within a day of starting to us them.
So, invest in a small box - if you dont have any rash issues, go ahead and stock up. in fact, I've got some cruisers size 4s you could have if they work.
We ended up switching to target brand and have been very pleased.
