Scratch marks under nappy

I have used pampers baby dry nappies for overnight for months without problems. Since they introduced the 'caterpiller flex' (exactly the same sides as on the active fit to my eyes) my ds has woken up a couple of times with what look like scratches on his tummy in about the same place as the tabs would be on the outside. Yesterday he had this on both sides of his tummy. I rang pampers but missed their lines being open. I have taken pictures to send to pampers, as I am certain that it is caused by the nappy. I have put sudocrem on the sore bits and have put ds in pull ups today to avoid tabs altogether. Has anyone else had this and if so what would you advise me to do. TIA

I wonder if there is latex in them..if so it could be an allergy? Just a random guess as i wouldn't have thought they would have latex in a baby nappy

It is very odd - the marks are in a rectangle shape and not particularly big patches, but I'm at a loss as to how it happens. I've felt that inside of the nappy and there doesn't seem to be any scratchy bits. Will keep an eye on it.
