Are there actually any disposable newborn nappies that don't leak??

[Thankyouandgoodnight]

I remember with DD that there were lots of up the back and out the side poos and wees and I was just wondering if there are any brands out there that are fairly bomb proof....??

sainsbo are rubbish for newborn poo avoid at all costs!

That's very helpful - yes please to telling me about brands that are NOT good too!Incidently, Hugggies were the ones we used with DD and they were as effective as using a piece of bog roll lightly draped.

I tried Tescos and Pampers with DD1 and neither could contain the poo explosions of a BF newborn. They would go up her back too. So I just used the cheaper Tescos and did lots of laundry (and so did my Mum - thank you Mum ).

Tesco are good

can't rememeber what they good ones are! I think up-the-back-and-over-the-shoulder-poo is par for the course with newborns. as long as there is no side seepage i am happy (doens't take much does it!)

Tesco were just as good as pampers. Neither controlled it perfectly but there wasn't a big difference apart from the price

Pampers rae the only ones that work here. last night dh put a tesco one on her and i woke up at 5am with a soaking wet baby.

Only pampers work with DS. They even withstand his "day after eating his own weight in grapes & plums" poo

not on a newborn
they are all a funny size/shape with skinny legs and fat tum, or fat legs and skinny tum, or fat all over, or thin all over.

everything leaks for about 2 wks till they're a decent shape.

IME

I presume your DS isn't a newborn if he's eating plums and grapes

i used asda's own when ds was born these were good up until number 4 then we moved onto costco own but when we got to 5 + huggies was the only one to work all through the night no leaks

pampers for the day huggies for a night now

DS1 could poo out of ANY nappy (skinny little leggies). DS2 never did even once!

All mine did fine with huggies in the early days as they have no bums! pampers i think would be better for the more rounded of buttock.
asda eco ones are a good slim fit as well

aldi's were as good as pampers (and about half the price)

my auntie found all the brands to be rubbish except boots own brand. . once used these there were no more explosions!

Boots own used to be very good, I used them for DD1 but just tried them for DS1 (3wo) for night time and had disastrous results as they have since changed them a lot (I had some saved up from last time and they were great while they lasted).

In fact I have had disastrous leakage results with everything other than cloth, and nothing is absorbant enough to go for more than a few hours. My washing machine is suffering badly as a result! Next move is disposable plus a motherease wrap......

I used to put DS in a disposable (Tesco's cheapy) with a wrap over the top overnight when he was a baby. That seemed to stop the explosions

They are all crap.

Go cloth ! I could count on one hand the number of leaks with 2 children.
