It seems like all diapers have these lately! Well, not all - but a lot of brands. We had good luck with BJs diapers last time around so we stocked up on a few this weekend and they do not have the dry max. So many people I know have had bad experiences with these diapers and rashes that I don't even want to take the chance.
What has your experience and/observation been?
Re: Dry Max protection in diapers...
We use the Pampers Max Dry and by accident Mario bought Alex a pack of Pampers baby dry and for us it gave him a really bad reaction for 2 weeks. This was after us thinking it was him being sick or maybe food allergies. Right when we figured out what it was we got the correct ones and instantly his butt was much better. My suggestion don't throw away the box- you can always try and return it.
No problem here. I didn't even know about it until Adrianna was like two month old and I started reading posts over on the 0-3 board.
Is Dry Max in brands other than Pampers, or am I misunderstanding the original post? I thought it was just a Pampers thing, but I have noticed it's hard to come by Pampers without Dry Max.
I'm wary of using them, but of course have no real-life experience.

huggies and publix brand don't have it...
we had a terrible problem with it. the second it touched abby's skin, she looked like she was bleeding. her poor tush was raw! i didn't dare try them with sarah. so we use either pamper baby dry (no dry max) or huggies for sarah and the pampers ultra protection night time ones (no dry max) as well.

It's Beshert
No problem here. I didn't even notice the Dry Max - bought them on sale - and then later that week read something about kids having a bad reaction...guess that's why they were on sale. But my kids didn't have any allergive ractions to them.
My son's reaction was almost instant as soon as he wore ONE freaking Dry Max diaper, and 2 weeks later, it's better, but not fully healed. It was terrible, burned, chafed, swollen, red, bloody. Terrible.
