I have a 2 1/2 year old daughter and have always used Pampers.
Well lately I have been using the new ones that hold more...with I think dri max?
Well they keep leaking!!
So what diapers do you use with your toddler??

This is the perfect time to use pull-ups and begin training her to use the potty. My grandaughter was trained at 22 months, both, and out of diaper at night by 24 months.

Its not really a great idea to leave them sitting in wet diapers for too long. Especially the ones with all the chemicals like pampers, huggies, luvs, etc... Change them more frequently.

I've used the Costco brand for almost 2 years. My daughter is 2. I find that I need to change her more often now that it is summer and she'd drinking a lot more. She has started to tell me when she needs to be changed which helps. I guess we'll be potty training soon!

I use cloth OS pocket styled diapers - Air Biscuit, Dream Diaper and some old Haute Pockets (now out of business). I will never go back to disposables. EVER. Cloth is so much better and safer and - well - SO DARN CUTE. I really love the inner fabrics of the Air Biscuits Cloth Diapers! Skulls with Flames is a big favorite of mine!

I use Huggies Snug & Dry. The only time my son leaks through them is if he sleeps through the night. Otherwise, I change him when he wakes up. I would say you probably need to change your baby more often.

I am a pampers mom also. Was having the same trouble with leakage at night only. My neighbor told me about Huggies overnites for bedtime and they are great! no more wet clothes in middle of night.
If your child is wetting through during day as well may just need to go up a size. According to weight chart my son would be in a size 4 diaper but there is no way with how much he pees, he is wearing a 5 during day and a size 6 at night. hope it helps

I have 8 kids and had the same problem until I switched to Huggies Supreme... never had a leak again! The only time they leaked was when they got to be too small so I just made sure to have the right size and problem solved! Best wishes and God bless!

contact pampers and let them know that they are leaking - they will send you coupons to keep your business. Have you tried LUVS?

I used Huggies for the longest time with my son. They worked really well for overnight. I don't know if they are still made, but White Cloud diapers were cheaper and were almost as good as Huggies. I've also used Luvs and had good success with them, even though I think Huggies are the best. I never had any luck with Walmart diapers. I only used those at daycare where my son got changed every 2 hours. If the diaper was on him any longer than that, he would always leak through. I would be on the lookout for free samples. You can sometimes find a place to request a free sample on the diaper's website and I know Walmart does free samples for diapers every once in a while. They usually send you 2 or 3 diapers to try. Hope you find something that works!

To be honest I think all diapers will leak after a certain point , just some sooner than others. I have had good success with Kirkland brand (Costco own) , or you could try over night diapers as they hold more , also I found going up to the next size helped reduce the amount of leaks.

We used Pampers Cruisers with Dry May during the day and Huggies Overnites... overnite. Never had a leak problem. What does happen sometimes is that if we go to long between changes the diaper becomes saturated and with a little pressure will leak like squeezing a wet sponge. So, things for you to consider are: are you taking too long between changes, are they the right size and are you putting them on right?

I had great sucess with Luvs...right up until she potty-trained at 2 1/2. I started her in Pampers--tried a bunch of store brands and they all caused diaper rash and reactions.
She may need a larger size, changed more often, or is ready to potty train!

Pampers is the best out there, so it is either staying on too long, your baby drinking too much liquids or you need another size.

We use the CostCo/Kirkland brand. Never had a problem.
Have you tried using the next size up in diapers? Sometimes the fit is different and you need to go a size up. Or try changing her more frequently. She may be drinking more now that it's summer and "filling" her pants.
I hope this helps!

For my twin girls, consistent leaky diapers always meant that it was time for them to move to the next size up. If you have already maxed out as some do at this age then I would start using pull-ups on her.

Pampers worked best on my son until he was about a year old, then the Huggies seemed to fit him better, especially as he got more active. The Huggies also seemed to fit his shape better as he got taller & skinnier, as opposed to when he was a chubby little round baby.

None of the name brand diapers ever worked for my kids - they all leaked and didn't fit well. Plus, the smell of petroleum when the package was opened was alarming - I didn't dare put them on my babies. Wal-Mart diapers were the only ones that did not leak, had a good fit and stayed on them. I hear Costco/Krikland brand are good as well. If you have one near and you are a member, you could try those.

I use the Huggies Goodnights at night. My daughter is the same age, and is potty trained during the day, but at night, OH MY! She soaks! The goodnights are great! I have tried the Pampers overnights, but they aren't as good. Their tabs aren't as strong and they sag.

I have also changed diapers since Pampers changed their diapers. They were always leaking for me, too. We have started using Huggies and cloth diapers since then. I am sad to say that we have not found any diaper that holds as much as the old Pampers diapers did, but we have been happy with Huggies Cruisers. If you buy the 'jean' ones, they are super cute, too!

I have a 9 1/2 month old boy and have been using Pampers Dry Max for the first time and he finished a huge box already and only leaked once and that was because I didn't put it on tight enough plus he kicks alot. I have heard people having issues with Dry Max but I though they worked well. I started using Pampers Baby Dry which is ideal for nightime usage but I use it during the day too. You might want to give that a try? I never liked Huggies myself because I always had problem with blowouts, they always ride up my son's clothes and back.
