Ok...so luvs apparently changed their diapers but they are all messed up now. I have talked to a few people about this and now they are all leaking and the straps BREAK after a few hours of wearing! Anyone have this happen? I think I'm going to call Luvs and report their diapers. I switched to Pampers now and that's huge for me because I'm so cheap :oops:
You need to get into cloth diapering Jojo. Maybe we can convert you??
I use Luvs at night (cloth diaper the rest of the day). I noticed they changed them, but I haven't been having any problems at all. Maybe I just don't notice because it's only the one a day?
I doubt you would ever convert me. I hate laundry and would never want to give myself more of it. I just don't have it in me to do it. Nice try, though...haha!Quote:

I don't know on Luvs but I have a box of pampers sitting in my closet I am scared to use - due to the recall a while ago. I bought it right after that and saved them for emergencies :P
What recall? I never used Pampers before. Always been a Luvs gal...up until recently....Quote:

I tried using the babydry from papmers and I did not like them. They feel like plastic and they leaked with DS. I went back tp pampers swaddlers but I would love a less expensive option. So, do Luvs feel like plastic? In the summer they seem hot to me.
Luvs actually don't feel any different than any other diaper to me. They used to hold leaks like no other and were really inexpensive. I was very disappointed that they started breaking and leaking. Maybe it's a few bad batches but i don't think so. My SIL also has had trouble with them. Maybe I'll try Huggies. I have used them a few times when i got samples in the mail. They were pretty cool.
The only problem I have with Luvs is they don't seem stretchy to me around the waist. But I have nominated Luvs as the cutest print and color(my own personal contest)
Yeah, the blues clues? The pampers have elmo and A is into him lately. So he likes those pampers. My niece loves BC, though. I don't know who huggies has on their diaper??Quote:

I think Huggies is Mickey Mouse?? I notice a big difference in Pampers and Luvs. Pampers you can get the deluxe swaddlers, the cruisers, etc. Pampers are top of the line in my book, because at this point, I try to spend as little as possible on diapers, lol! Luvs are bottom of the line. Well, unless you go for the Walmart or Target brand which we do all the time :p The only diapers I was suspicious of giving a rash was the Jeans diapers. They sure were cute though.
Huggies supreme have pooh bear.
Oh wow! That's crazy! We haven't had any issues with them burning our childs butt. I don't think we are getting dry max though?? I will have to check. I just know they have elmo on them.Quote:

Yes, my son is almost 2. He really does fine with any disposable. Hardly ever has diaper rash. Maybe once?? Def not a lot.
Kids were getting chemical burns from them. Liam got crazy red after DH accidentally grabbed the new Drymax. Luvs has always been fine.. which I find weird because they are both made by P&G.Quote:

I use both cloth and disposables. Here is my review:
Swaddlers were awesome
Pampers sensitive were great
Huggies Supreme were great
Huggies were fair...didn't have a great fit, but were okay
Luvs were awful ...i disliked like the texture and they had no stretch
In the last few weeks, I have tried both pampers and huggies. I'm undecided on which I like better. I am thinking probably pampers.
After reading this, I bought Luvs because they are cheap and I like them better than the Pampers Swaddlers. DS pees so much that the swaddlers at night were huge and puffy when they were wet(not all night, just after a 4-5 hour stretch) and the Luvs don't feel that way when wet. I know they are cheaper and I had assumed lesser quality, but they seem to function better for DS. I do prefer the swaddlers soft outside and they definitely seem like a nicer diaper to the touch. Luvs do not stretch at all at the waist but DS is long and lean so it works for us.
No problems w/ the new style Luvs here but we only use them at night.
