Pampers Underjams Diapers, Boys

Pampers UnderJams Boys Diapers Big Pack Size 7, S/M, 46 CountI have a son who is almost 10 that still wets the bed due to Sensory issues, so I am fairly an expert on this subject. Of all the sleep pants, these are the best and has nothing to do with price, although these are pretty much the cheapest you can find, which doesn't hurt! They leak less, and are more comfortable and discreet then the others. It matters to an older boy who has friends spend the night. Some under pants will ride up and show around the waist band of their pants, which embarrasses the child when others notice it. These sit lower on the waist. Also, other pants make this loud, crinkly noise when the kids moves and can look suspiciously bulgy under the kids regular pants. The Underjams are the quietest and least bulky pants we have found. My son weighs about 68 pounds, but we still find that this is the right size for him. The Large size is still a little too loose and prone to leaking.

What ever under pants you choose, the trick to leaking is to have the child wear a pair of normal underwear over the top of them. They don't need to fit super tight over the pull up, but it should be a fairly snug fit. That will hug the sleep pants closer to their body and stop the leaking. We learned long ago that he puts on his "pull up" and then puts underwear on top of that. No leaks. =D

Update:

11/10/12

My son just recently hit the 72 pound mark and we have had to switch to the Large size. They are working well, but thankfully we may be almost done with them now! After finding out through specialists that he has more then likely been constipated for years, he's had treatment and the bed wetting is almost completely stopped! Apparently, when the colon is full, it pushes on the bladder, causing bet wetting. If your child is older and still wetting at night, having accidents during the day, and/or pooping in their pants, please have the doc x-ray their tummy. They are probably totally full of stool and have been for a very long time! They have to have a total clean out, and then take Mirilax every day for 6 to 12 months! Mary Bridge Children's hospital has an entire dept. devoted to this problem, that our regular doctor had no idea about. He had been telling me for over a year that it was all a behavioral problem! All the info you need is at this web site:

My little guy is autistic and at 4.5 he is still not ready to potty train. We have tried every single kind of pullup there is, and have had lots of failures, including one miserable one at Disneyland. Bigger little guys sure can hold a lot!! This is the only pullup that has never let me down, both during the day and overnight. Go for it.

I was pleasantly surprised to stumble across these on Amazon. With the Amazon Moms plus the regular subscriber features, I'm saving 30% off! If you have a son who still wets the bed, these are a great option. They work just as well (or perhaps even better) than Goodnites, but are much more affordable. It's nice to have the box arrive at home as well, so my son isn't embarrassed by my buying them at the store.

We've used these with the Westop 3 alarm (bought on Amazon) too--and they work great. I also highly recommend the book, "Waking up Dry" by Dr. Bennett, on Amazon. It's written towards kids, and will definitely help both them and you. It also helped us to realize that it can take months to see results with an alarm, when we were expecting more immediate results.

These don't leak. Even after a long night's sleep, kiddo comes out with dry pants just a super heavy diaper. I used to have to wash his sheets daily and line them with towels. This has lightened my laundry load significantly!

Underjams are great for older kids who aren't quite ready to go all night dry. Also great for Moms and Dads who aren't ready to wash and change sheets every day and night. I remember my brothers struggling to stop wetting the bed and all the stress and shame it caused them. I believe some kids sleep deeper than others and it will take them longer to go all night dry. These are a great alternative to stressing out yourself and your child.

Fisher-Price SpaceSaver Swing and Seat

Fisher-Price SpaceSaver Swing and Seat, Luv U ZooI'm one of those horrible moms that lets her baby take every nap in the swing. :) we have the my little lamb cradle and swing (which i'm pretty sure was sent from heaven), but medical issues have caused us to have to spend lots of time at my parents house and our big swing was NOT going to go back and forth with us. So, we bought this little swing. I LOVE it. I was worried that some of the other swings wouldn't recline far enough and my baby wouldn't be able to fall asleep them, so I bought this one because I thought it looked like it would lay him back pretty far. He loves it and sometimes sleeps for 2 hours in it. (some of the other little swings i read about had timers that made them shut off after an hour...this would not be cool!) This one will go on forever :) He is 4 months and weighs 13 pounds and we use it on the lowest speed setting. I think it goes plenty fast, but of course I'm wanting him to sleep.

The only things I don't like:

-the little thing that hangs down is pretty much just a hunk of plastic in animal shapes. I'm pretty sure my baby looked up at it for about 2 seconds and though, "uhhhh....okay." worthless.

the songs (which I never use anyway) and sort of like what you would listen to at an outdoor luau or something. if you want something to shake maracas to, the songs are for you. if sleep is your goal, they won't help.

-it IS a bit hard. but of course we were used to the my little lamb swing which is pretty much like sleeping on an actual lamb or something. I folded up a receiving blanket to make a super flat (don't worry SIDS police) pillow for him and that seemed to do the trick.

Oh yes...and it was easy to put together. If I got the job done and my child wasn't injured in a swing related accident...you can do it. Or hey I don't know, maybe you can't, but it's worth a shot :)

happy swinging.

I have a small home so I did not have an option of getting a big swing. I registered for this and have been using it successfully with my little one for two months (I have not even had to change the batteries yet). Now that I have it, I cannot imagine having anything else (i.e., a large stationary swing and separate bouncer), regardless of my house size. One of the things that I love about this is that it is portable I can even move it around when my daughter is in it. I have moved it from the kitchen table, to the back deck, to my bedroom, to the living room....wherever I go in the house I can move it so that I can see her. The other great thing is that if she gets fussy when it's swinging, I can switch it immediately to vibrating. I can't imagine having to take a fussy baby out of it and move her to a different seat just to see if she wants the vibrations.

Some people have complained that the swing is too fast. If you just swing it without a baby in it, it seems fast, but once you put some weight in it it swings at a very nice setting. Other complaints were that it is too hard. I purchased a "snuzzler" Kiddopotamus Snuzzler Complete Head and Body Support, Ivory Terry which I move from the swing to the stroller, to the carseat. This too has been a lifesaver, since newborns are so small and cannot support themselves. However, now that my daughter is bigger she seems perfectly happy in the swing without it.

This is a product that I could not live without as a parent. I recommend this to everyone!!

Our three month old son has loved this swing since he came home from the hospital. He can work himself into a loud fuss that no food, rocking, diaper changes, temperature changes, etc. can calm, then quickly calm himself to sleep after being placed in the swing for a few short minutes.

In regards to the earlier review, our swing does vary significantly in speed and rate of swing from lowest to highest settings.

One note of caution: during assembly of the swing body, it is easy to over-tighten the screws. In an attempt to ensure that the seat was securely assembled, I tightened a screw completely thorough one of the interlocking plastic seat pieces.

We fully endorse the product.

I love almost everything about this swing. It does it all! No need for a bouncy and a swing. Plus very easily moved around the house from room to room.

This is a great swing! It is portable, light-weight, yet solid. The combination of music, swinging, and/or vibration is awesome. would buy this item again in a minute. Batteries last a long time.

Pampers Sensitive Wipes

Pampers Sensitive WipesThese are great baby wipes. Our newborn has never had a negative reaction to these wipes, and they are wet enough to get the job done on even the dirtiest diapers. This package contains 4 packs, each of which contains 192 wipes. The 192-wipe packs are further broken down into three individually-wrapped packs of 64 wipes, which fit perfectly into standard-sized plastic wipe containers, including the containers on most wipe warmers. So, you are really getting 12 individually wrapped packs of 64 wipes.

I don't have anything to add about the quality of this product. They are good. I just wanted to update folks with the fact that I just received a shipment of these and the flap that allows you to open and reseal the package is there. I still have packages of the old ones (we still had a whole box of the ones we ordered over a year ago when my toddler needed them, and we opened it with the arrival of our twins) and the only difference between the old packaging and new packaging is that the old packaging has an arrow and "open here" right by the resealable flap. Now there is no printing indicating the existence of the flap, but it is there.

These wipes are great. They are very soft and don't irritate my daughter's skin, who is prone to eczema.

They also work in the wipe warmers (when you pull one out, it pulls another one up through the slot like a tissue. The Huggies wipes I tried did not do that, and you had to fish around for a new wipe each time.)

Each package is wrapped in plastic with a resealable strip that holds up to repeated use. The generic wraps I've tried often are packaged in thinner plastic that rips when you try to pull open the adhesive cover, or the adhesive loses its stickiness before the last wipe is used.

I keep a package in every room my baby plays in. If I had one complaint it is that 192 wipes is really overkill for the diaper bag, so I put some in a separate container or plastic bag, but that's the same with all brands I've tried (and it's the perfect amount of wipes for the wipe warmer, which I recommend for anyone who needs to change a diaper in the middle of the night, or whose baby doesn't like to get changed).

These are my favorite wipes for a newborn. They are very moist and very soft thin wipe. Which is what I need for my babies. All they need in the first month is a light swipe of an ultra soft wipe. I had tried using some of the wipes I had for my toddler on my newborn and that was a bad idea. The thicker more textured wipes are too harsh on newborn skin. The thicker wipes do a good job on bigger baby messy diapers but they are not good for newborns. The thicker wipes drag on newborn skin too much. These Pampers Sensitive wipes are really nice because they are strong but thin and soft. You can wrap it around your fingers and very lightly clean your newborn.

That said, now that my baby is 3 months, I changed to the huggies wipes. The Pampers tend to roll up on itself when you try to do a wide handed wipe of a baby's bottom. And since its a tiny bit harder to get a wipe out than with the huggies, it starts to become a problem because older babies start kicking and moving a whole lot more.

We have really enjoyed using these wipes for our daughter. We carry a large package with us when we travel, and the wipes stay moist for weeks after being opened, as long as you reclose them with the adhesive strip. But there is the problem....

Just received a box of these wipes, and Pampers has decided to remove the reclosing feature, meaning that once open, you have to put them into a container. Feh this is messy, and the wipes are now more exposed to air and will probably dry out. So now we cut open a slot and fashion a closure strap from a piece of packing tape (when we just want the package of wipes without the container.) Pampers: By cutting costs, you may have lost a customer we'll look at other, more convenient brands now.

Potty Patrol Boys Diaper Refill Kit, 24 Count

Potty Patrol Boys Diaper Refill Kit, 24 CountThis product does exactly what it says and works, but it just made my child excited when song started and he never held

the pee pee in, in time to go into the potty. The song did not go off if he went poo poo too :(

I didn't give it 5 stars for the fact they didn't help to get him trained. They worked perfectly in that the alarm sounded to let him and us know he was actually going pee. But after buying 4 packages of the refill diapers he is still not making the connection we hoped he would.

Nuby 2 Pack Nibbler with Cap

Nuby 2 Pack Nibbler with CapThe very good things about it:

baby can't choke

has caps (important for travel or any other situation where you can't clean it right away but don't want to create mess)

possible to buy replacement mesh

easy to hold for a baby

The possible improvements:

would be nice to add a hole in the handle so I can tie it up with something as baby throws it on the floor

I think the mesh is little bit too big at least for my 7 m.o. 2/3 of its current size would be perfect.

Hint: bananas can be tricky if you wait some time to clean, so wash it right away. Then it's really easy and mesh stays clean.

These are great for young eaters.

We've used them for

-frozen fruit

-steamed veggies

-chicken

-frozen yogurt.

They work just as described allowing your child to practice chewing with no fear of biting of a chunk sizable enough to choke on. The only thing I was is that the nets were easier to clean.

For maximum cleanliness, soak nets in HOT soapy water IMMEDIATELY after use... use a spoon to keep them submerged.

Buy Nuby 2 Pack Nibbler with Cap Now

Great to be used as a teething solution put ice cubes in the net and let baby chew and sucks on it. But as far as using it for fruit everything stains the white net. Every time I put a banana in it, I had to throw a net away because there was no way of me washing out all the mess out. I tried numerous time by hand and in a dishwasher..... I think this is a great idea, but it just doesn't work all that well.

We just loved these! These are great to use everyday but for us they were especially helpful when she was teething. We put frozen fruits inside when she had sore swollen gums and it was a lifesaver! I highly recommend having at least one of these if you have a baby!!!

Want Nuby 2 Pack Nibbler with Cap Discount?

My baby loves the nibbler, I put pieces of apple or carrots inside and she loves to bite and suck. What I don't like about it is that you have to clean it right away, but not only that, even if I wash it right after its use I have to use a little bit of bleach to ensure it gets really clean otherwise the fabric becomes kind of brown because I can't remove all the juices that the fruit leaves in the fabric.

Real Nappies Diaper Liners Twin Pack, 200 Sheets

Real Nappies Diaper Liners Twin Pack, 200 SheetsI bought these before my daughter was born four and half months ago. I am just now reordering.

We wash these with the diapers if they are just peed on. After we pull them out of the wash, we just throw them in a pile on top of the washer and they are dry by the time the diapers are done. I have no idea how many times they can go through the wash (4? 5?), but I very rarely find one with a hole in it and have to throw it away. These are the most economical way to keep your hands out of the toilet! We love them!

Update in July 2012: We are still using these liners and they still work great; however, I wanted to amend what I said about being able to wash them. At some point in the last six months, the composition of the liners has changed and they no longer survive even one washing, much less multiple ones. Therefore, if they are peed on, they get tossed rather than washed and reused. This results in us having to purchase them more often than before. All that being said though, they still work great and I don't have to touch poop, so they still get five stars! (Seriously, the baby is 22 months old and I think I've had to do the "toilet swish" three times ever.)

Very soft. Maybe a bit short, but since the poop is further back I don't feel it's a problem, just put it in the back of the diaper. When there is only pee on it, I put it in the washer and hang dry it with the diapers. I only wash it once, after that it kind of loses its structure.

I love these. They are like a piece of fabric softener that keeps the majority of the poop off the diaper. No more sticking my hands in the toilet, no more soaking diapers... if I knew it could be this easy, I would have started cloth diapers so much sooner!

Soft, soft, soft! Contains solid waste as intended. Granted these are not as long as the Grovia Bio Liner Diaper Liners but they are a bit wider and whisper soft. They are about a half inch shorter than the Grovia. Once the baby is on solids or on formula, liners should be used to make solid waste just lift off the diaper and be flushed away neatly. My baby is on solids now and we've been using these for three months. When my Real Nappies ran out I decided to try a roll of the aforementioned Grovia. The Grovia seem scratchier and she got a lot of redness from them. These are made from something different because they will hold up to multiple washes whereas the Grovia looks very linty and wadded after one wash. If your baby has no solid waste and you want to save a little money then just wash them with your cloth diapers. I let them air dry and they're dry in about an hour without hanging them. They flush well even in an iffy system. Since switching back to Real Nappies, her redness is completely gone. Grovia were irritating to her sensitive skin.

Real Nappies does not come with a cardboard tube. Minimal packaging. I will not switch again.

As of October 8, 2011, I tried a new brand in order to collect reward points from a certain website. I tried the Bummis. After using about two of those I'm ready to reorder these. The Bummis turn into rolled up ropes in the wash and look terrible once restretched. Don't bother buying anything else.

As of May 5th, 2012, I've changed to CuteyBaby 6 Pack Biodegradable Diaper Liners. They are as soft as the original Real Nappies and not as wide.

This is the third flushable liner that we have tried. The other two were great... no problems at all. This one was the worst. In fact we only used a handful of them. After a day and a half my son had the worst diaper rash of his life. It was terrible. We stopped using them and it went away.

We use cloth because it does better diaper rash wise than disposable. It had been so long since he had a rash that I had to hunt for the diaper cream. It did not work for us.

Fisher-price Happy Days Diapers

Fisher-price Happy DaysI personally love these for my daughter, I wish I had discovered this brand before now. They are affordable and they work great, no leaking ever, I also love that there hypoallergenic and my little one doesn't break out in a rash from them. Also they have no stinky chemical smell like some diapers have.

I bought these before our little girl arrived. I wanted to stock up and try different products.

I chose these diapers because my husband had never changed a diaper before. They have what I call "idiot proof" tabs when you fasten them. There is yellow, green, and red. The tab on the backside of the diaper is green. When you pull it to the front, the green back tab goes on the green section of the front to ensure the diaper is on there properly. I loved that my husband could learn the proper tightness of a diaper.

We never had a problem with these diapers leaking. We used them for the first 3-4 weeks of our daughters life (up until about 9 pounds).

I have not tried any of the bigger sizes because we were given over 500 pampers diapers. Needless to say, I am using those.

I highly recommend these to any new parents as they are great!!!!!!!!!!!

These diapers are great! Not only do they fit well and don't leak (unless they are overfullas with all diapers), but they are the only diaper besides Pampers Sensitive that don't give my baby diaper rash! And since they are cheaper than the Pampers Sensitive, I have been using these exclusively with no problems. They are so absorbent that I don't even have to use the "Happy Nights" version, the Happy Days make it through her 11 hour sleep at night!

The diapers were more expensive than if I had just gone to a store and bought them. It also took them over a week to arrive. After they arrived and I used them I did not think they were as absorbent or worked as well as other brands I had purchased.

We received a free jumbo pack with a purchase of a jumperoo at babiesrus. We previously used Huggies Lil' Snugglers religiously. However my son recently grew out of the size two (which is the biggest size for the lil' snuggler series) and used these Fisher Price diapers in a size three. I was a little skeptical at first since they resembled the Huggies Snug and Dry (which i hate, we had a 75 percent chance of leakage with those diapers).

The first time we used these we didnt have any leaks and it seemed to fit him pretty well. i think only one leaked due to it being too full. The only problem i have with this diaper which is the same problem i have with every other diaper beside the Lil' snugglers, is that it doesnt have the flap in the back to catch runny mess. My son currently poops once every 3-4 days.. and when he does he explodes and it always goes up the back and it gets onto his clothes. I wish more diapers had that back catch flap feature.

But for the most part i assume since my baby doesnt crawl yet the explosions are mostly due to him lying on his back and the problem may get better when he is actually mobile.

I recommend these diapers since they are less expencive and seem to do well compared to the snug and dry diapers.
