What do you mean they are small? They only make small sizes or...?
How much are they? I get Pams regular for Ella and they are $6.60, they are the same as Giggles

I used the Loving Touch for Maya a few weeks ago (had a coupon) and they were great to start with but overall leaked more often than the Treasures. I know what you mean about them being small tho - they are quite a small cut like Huggies. I will def use them with the new baby tho as I think the reason they leaked with Maya is that she is in the same nappy all night so it gets pretty full.
We also tried the Pams and they were pretty good.

Does anyone know of a better nappy than Huggies? Kobe wets through them at night, everynight. Treasures are worse but Im getting so sick of having to change him and the bed in the early hours of the morning.

Hi ya Robyn,
Have you ever thought of going cloth. I started looking at them because my wee man was wetting thru in the night and started waking up because he was so wet. I was really scared at the thought to begin with. But the modern cloth nappies that you can get now are awesome. No hassle at all and so much cheaper than disposables in the long run. I started off just using these at night and now I use them all day long!

Robyn, modern cloth nappies have a stay dry liner of microfleece or suedecloth, which lets moisture through but doesnt absorb it, so bubs skin stays dry.

I never really liked Huggies.. do you use Treasures Ultra or just regular? Pams make an ultra too, although I've never tried them as Ella rarely wets through.

I use giggles through the day and used to use treasures ultra at night but he was wetting through them. Its strange though cos we were in Aussie a couple of weeks ago and he never wet during the night and I ran out of huggies and just used basic giggles and he didnt wet through them either, come back to NZ and he is soaked every night.

That is really strange, as you would think he would have been drinking more over there with the warmer weather.. sorry I'm not sure what to suggest  There are some online which are cheaper and maybe more absorbant, some people here use online ones..

I use Treasures Ultra with Maya and they're fine for her, but find the Giggles leak all over the place.
I did try the Air nappies from Diapers Direct or Diapers Express or whatever they call themselves, and they were good to, and quite cheap.

We've used eden midis from babyonline - till Laura got out of the only size they stocked.. they were brilliant very few leaks.
We cloth at home most of the time now though with pockets at night time, because she pees for all of africa at night, and NO disposables I tried could handle it lol.
We are using babylove nappies atm they are ok- also from babyonline

Robyn I was very scared about cloth at night too, but the only times I've had to change wet sheets are when Hannah has worn disposables.

we used the air ones too and they were good for night times. we now use sealer nappies from diapersdirect.co.nz and they are brilliant and cheap. check if they have a stockist in your city as sometimes its cheaper to buy from there rather than online.

Hi ya,
The modern cloth you can get are fab. They are fitted just like a disposable but the genius thing is that you can add boosters. So if you have a heavy wetter you can play around with boosting the nappy so you don't have leaks. It is really simple. Since I have been using cloth on Josh at night I haven't had a single leak.
Back to sleeping thru the night, YAY for me not having to get up and change his disposable half way thru the night because it is sopping and woken him up.

robyn - air were the best i found, they didnt have as much yucky gel in them but held a lot, i found them quite a bit bigger fitting than nz and oz nappies too, thought maybe the germans had bigger babies.
