AlphaHandMaiden:




Hello breadfruit,

Although i havent used the SA huggies brand, the thing with reviews is that for every person that thinks its the best thing since the resurrection of christ, another person will think its absolute sh*t!.

One average a new born will need to be changed anything between 6 to 12 times a day. For newborn nappies as long as it has the wetness indicator strip which changes colour when its wet that is all you really need. This is because newborns wee very little in the first weeks - only about a teaspoon at a time in the first few days, so this indicator is good way of checking all his/her internal plumbing is working ok. wink

So if you average changing about 8 -10 times a day a pack of 38 will last about 4 days.

How long your baby stays in that nappy size will depend on how much the LO weighs at birth and how much they put on..... mine averages at putting on about 1kg per month for the first 2-3 months. So we out grew the size 2 just before 3 months. Now at 4 months we go through about 6 no size 3 nappies on an uneventful day

You will also be able to tell by eye if the nappies look too small on your LO. Or when you start getting too many poo leaks .... it may be time to go up in size.

I got both pampers and huggies as gifts as those are the most popular brands and i have used other un-branded ones as well and i find i like different things in each one. You can try a few brands before you decide which you prefer, both in performance and cost-wise and buy in bulk.

PS. I also use cloth nappies and will be using that exclusively when my "gifts" run out except for the odd out of town/ long distance travel when i will go with disposable, however that is a whole different subject matter. grin




Thank you so much. This was very, very helpful....

Dont feel bad about it, and its not your fault! All babies are different my girls learnt by the time they were 3 years old. Continue with what you are doing... I now its expensive but have you tried pull-ups? Mix both potty training with pull-ups during the day,continue to gage with your child by asking her whether she wants to go to the toilet or not. With time she will be able to associate the feeling of going to the toilet with the potty, all this work will eventually pay off! wink
Thanks dear. Actually I've been using pull ups since dec. I guess I'll have to make extra patience smoothies wink but 3years Na long thing o! Ah! Motherhood...thanks again.

Sorry ma. It happens in some cases. Whyy not offer it to him when he is hungry or express it in a bottle if he is on d bottle. The bottom line, offer it first before d 2nd one when he is hungry. Hope ds helps.

Dr. Brown's feeding bottles are in Nigeria, I've seen them before even in Balogun market in Lagos. Babies tend to like body warmth so they like sleeping in arms but you can try putting her or him down from time to time until they learn to sleep by themselves. Pele
