Advantages: They are good at their job

Disadvantages: They can explode if overloaded

When I left the hospital after having my little boy I was armed with the new mother pack containing Pampers. A few days later the midwife and myself noticed a nasty nappy rash develoing on my boy bottom. Naturally upset I asked what I should do. She suggested many things involving creams and other funny concoctions but none seemed to work. After a couple of weeks I changed nappies and went for Hugggies. I have had no more nappy rash since. We got through teething and not a sign of a spot. I couldn't believe my luck. I would go for any other nappy now that I have used huggies. When they changed the packaging I was a little thrown as I knew what colour pack I was going for before and didn't have a clue on his size. I'm still not too sure! They make my life easier as I know that I have one less thing to worry about.

One criticism I would make is that when you are just starting potty training the training pants are too expensive so you tend to use normal nappies. There is a small problem in that my little on has tried to hold on in the mornings ie he stays dry during the night but if we all get up late then he can't wait and he wets his nappy. The nappy is unable to hold this on-rush of wee and so either it leaks or the nappy explodes leaving lots of gel everywhere. I might add that when this does happen the gel isn't that easy to collect (so if anyone has tips on cleaning it up I would be grateful for them).

I like the design on the huggies nappies but if they get wet on the outside they aren't that soft and can cause a nasty sore spot on the legs.

Most of the time though they are second to none. I would highly reccommend them to other parents.
