"I prefer Huggies over Pampers" | 2009-09-26 |

I've never been a fan of Pampers because they always seemed to be drooping in the back, so it always looked like the diaper was wet/full. In spite of this, I decided to try the Easy-Ups mainly because my daughter likes Dora Explorer, but I prefer the velcro on the Pull-Ups.
I signed-up for Amazon's "Subscribe & Save" service, so I'm saving about $2 per pkg. And because I also have Amazon Prime, I get free 2nd day delivery.
Another suggestion: Fisher-Price Royal Potty Step Stool
The Fisher-Price Stepstool Potty which has a sensor and plays music when they go potty, has been a big help. It takes the guesswork out of the process which saves time, and helps the child relate their actions to the reward.
NOTE: I would highly recommend the boys' potty because of the splash guard! |

"Poor Quality" | 2009-02-03 |

| I like these because the sides pull apart - makes it easy to remove them without taking off pants and shoes. However, the quality of the last few packs I've received have been very poor. The blue sealing strip has been coming off and today the sides just ripped as my child stepped into them. I've been throwing away 2-5 damaged pull-ups per pack, and although I did like these, I'm not buying them again. |

"Wonderful potty training help" | 2008-10-22 |

Once I finally got serious about potty training I realized the basic logistical issues I was dealing with.
I started with pampers pull-ups which I loved at the time. They were great for teaching my son how to pull up and down his underwear. That's all I was concentrating on, and the product worked well. Very comfortable, no leaking. They are very close to cloth-like underwear.
Then I got serious about potty training and my needs changed. I wasn't worried about leaks and comfort as much as I was with ease of use.
Huggies are easy to pull up and down, and are fairly absorbant as diapers, though not extremely so (not as much as the pampers). They are a little scratchier than the pampers, though my son doesn't seem to care. The open and close tabs on the sides are very useful. I would think we had a poop accident and lay my son down, and open up the sides, and realize that he just smelled like he'd pooped. It was nice not to waste the clean diaper. In addition, when he did accidentally poop, I was able to lay him down on his back and wipe him up, and the easy access sides were great then as well.
I didn't really need the cool alert feature at this point, and we moved straight into underwear, EXCEPT
Using the potty in the middle of the night. I don't know about you, but I have a hard time waking up and racing my son into the potty to get him to go in the nick of time. The cool alert wakes him up just enough to go running to the bathroom and give me time to groggily head over there. I expect he'll be in this "nighttime" underwear as we call it for another month or two, only because he still forgets once every couple of weeks or so, and I'd rather deal with a diaper than clean the sheets in the middle of the night.
As for the disappearing images... he never noticed and neither did I. That feature may be useful for other people, but not for us. |

This is another product we've gone through the ringer testing other brands, only to come back to this one.
They are very streamlined and fit well under clothes. Only complaint is they will occasionally shift and cause a bit of a leak. Not really any fault of the diaper itself so far as I can see, and it has happened with other brands too. Of course, being pullups, they are not nearly as absorbant as diapers. We use these during the day and regular diapers at night for 3 year old DS.
The subscribe and save price here is fair, sometimes you can find them a bit cheaper with coupons. But to have them delivered right to our door is worth the small up charge. |

"Helped us with Pottty Training" | 2008-05-15 |

| I have always wondered what the difference between pullups and diapers were beside just being able to be pulled up. Cool Alert Pull-Ups from Huggies also have an ingredient that gives them the sensation of coolness when wet. These Cool Alert Pull Ups really did assist us in potty training because the cool alert makes him feel uncomfortable and he starting holding his potty. He was even waking up dry in the mornings. As soon as I put a regular diaper back on him, he went back to using his diaper. We will be ordering more of these. They differ from the package shown, they come with the CARS movie characters on them, which my son loves and makes him want to wear them. |
