- A few days ago, we received a sample box of Pampers Cruisers diapers (size 3) free from Influenster and Pampers.
Immediately upon opening the box, I could smell the fresh "baby" scent without even opening the plastic wrapping. While for some people I see how this could be off-putting, I really enjoyed it and like the fresh scent. As my little guy wore them, I noticed that the scent stayed throughout the entire time. He also didn't get a funny smell after peeing. I have noticed that some other diapers, even scented, seem to really have a funky slightly sour smell...but not these! Every time I picked up or moved the little guy I got that nice whiff of freshness.
While these were a little big for my guy (they only come is sizes 3 and up) they still fit on him enough to test. Right away I could tell they were a better fit because through the center they were narrower...and with my guy's chubby little legs, they fit in between much better! Also such a small detail but made a big difference for me was the pull tab size. The tabs are much wider than other brands which helps them to cling to the front of the diaper better and also provides more coverage for side leaks. Also because of the stretchiness of the tabs, they could fit a huge variety of sizes. For me this was a positive because I feel like he could be in a smaller size for longer, which we all know the smaller size packs come with more diapers.
So without looking like a deprived child, I will say I constantly monitored the diaper for wetness, bm, and leaks the whole time! This diaper stood up like a champ! My little guy wore his size 3 for probably around 8 hours before he really needed to be changed. Their slogan is "sag to swag" and it's totally true! His diaper was completely full, but not heavy or saggy, or wet to the touch! I love that this kept the wetness off his skin and he didn't have a saggy diaper looking like he hadn't been changed in hours. For me this is a big positive because I'll get more wear for me money since they can stay on longer...I may only be changing him 4 times a day as opposed to maybe 8 times a day with another brand.
Overall, I am totally sold on Pampers. Yes, they are more money upfront, but will hold more and last longer. Also you can find coupons in the Sunday paper, online through their website, or also by signing up for their mail program.
