In order to help Beanie & other moms-to-be, I thought it might be useful to post a poll as to which nappies are the best. I remember being totally daunted when I went to buy my first pack! :eek:
When my son was newborn, I found that Pampers Newborn were the best & now like to use Pampers Active Fit but find them a bit pricey. I've tried all the different supermarkets' own brands & found that ASDA's George are the nicest. I also keep a stock of Boots Basic Nappies for those times when my son has an upset tummy & I'm going through several changes an hour.
Are you able to offer any more advice?
(PS: The poll only allows for a max of 6 options, so if I've not included a brand you use, please mark "Other". I have made it so you may tick more than one choice.)

How did you do that ???
I've tried that several times and the system wouldn't let me do it... :mad:
As for the choice of nappies, sorry I cannot help...

Ideally I would choose Pampers, but they are the priciest. I compromise with Huggies, and I often find that they have some kind of deal on, where you can buy two large packs for £15, or you get reward points etc.
Don't bother with Sainsbury's own brand ... they leak terribly.
Ditto what Venus said accept I don't do the others if I can help it. If I have absolutely no choice then I'll still use Pampers but the green packet not the usual activ fit. I tried to do the eviromently friendlier thing and use Nature nappies but they go lumpy and gave my baby horrible nappy rash.

I agree about the Sainsbury's nappies. I bought a pack about 3 weeks ago as I was unable to get to another shop & most in the pack lost their sticky tabs while my son was wearing them, resulting in several accidents. I find that the Huggies nappies don't fit well & seem to be uncomfortable.

I've found that ASDA's George nappies are almost identical to the Pampers Baby Dry but £1 cheaper + an extra 4 nappies per pack for my son's size.

There's a little box that you can tick in the poll options.
I'll give you a crash course in nappies when you visit, if you like! :jester:

I hated the active fit nappies, so much so that I took them back to the Tesco's I bought them from. So unless they've changed considerably since when my son was in nappies, I wouldn't bother. Pampers Baby Dry for me. :thumbs:
