It appears that Stanbic has increased their exchange rate to $1 to N315.

Be warned.

Hi every one .... Has any momma used pampers swaddler a for thier babies? How was it .

TheLeakyTribe:


The swaddlers are actually best for little babies who haven't started moving much. When baby gets older the little movers or cruisers are better.

In my opinion pampers swaddlers are okay for newborns but from 6 months and above I'd definitely go for huggies. Infact with this baby I started with huggies from the start it provides more protection than pampers in my experience. Same way I prefer Dr brown for training pants, cheaper and equally effective.

Mom4ever:



Thank u mummy

It's wonderful, soft, and dry on baby. Used it first 2 months.

Popri:
thanks a lot

It depends on your baby
I used pampers swaddlers from NB to size 1..Il rate it very good, it's absorbancy is excellent but my baby had diaper rash so I switched to huggies little snugglers which suited her skin...I attempted using pampers swaddlers again in size 3 and the diaper rashes reappeared again so I just abandoned it
IMO, pampers swaddlers absorbs well but huggies is softer and absorbancy is also good
From size 3..I used huggies little movers not snug and dry, which I will rate excellent...it absorbs VERY well, it VERY soft and it has large wings which prevents leakage

Il rate Huggies Little Movers higher than pampers cruisers

Hi. Pls, for LA mamas, does the notarized consent form for American passport have to be from the embassy alone or can a lawyer's own also be used. I know fr Houston, I doesn't have to be from d embassy. Is LA also liberal?
