Diapers
One thing that a lot of parents ask me about are diapers. First, with a newborn you will need between eight to ten diapers per day. Some days you may need more and some days you may need less. Most brands now have Velcro tabs, don't buy diapers that do not. Most brands have cloth like cover and ultra absorbency. So what brand do you buy? Well, I would say one of each. Each baby is different and each diaper will work differently for each one. I love Pampers cruisers. I think they are the best diapers out there. However, they don't work for my son. He wears Pampers Baby-Dry. Pampers are expensive so I have tried a few other brands too. First we tried Huggies. Four diapers into the pack I gave them away. Then did not work at all. peep and poop everywhere. Not something you want to deal with a newborn. Because it is not just the babies clothes, it is the crib sheets, mattress pad, or yes, even your clothes. So on to Luvs. Now, what some people don't realize, is that Luvs is made by the same company as Pampers. I wasn't sure how they were going to work, they were a lot less than Pampers so I thought I would give them a try. We buy Luvs now. I can not believe how well they worked for my son. So I though why not buy the Target brand diapers and give them a try. Well they are great for the daytime, not so well at night. The Target brand he leaked in every night for a week. So now he wears Pampers Baby-Dry at night. So try a brand and if it doesn't work switch. You may have to go through several different brands, or the first one you try may be the winner. Good luck!
