Shopaholic? Me?

Pampers have come out with a new update to their active fit nappy. I only realised after actually returning a pack.

I bought a pack and found that the padding in the nappy ends 2/3rd up and not all the way to the top. I assumed it was a flaw in the nappy but the whole bag was like that, so I returned them to the store for an exchange. They exchanged them but this pack was faulty (or so I thought too) but I was desperately short of nappies and as I had the next size up too, I opened that thinking that maybe they just had a faulty batch. And it also was the same. So it set me thinking and I called customer service. Great customer service. They said that mums (not me) wanted thinner nappies (I like the cushioning as when they fall on their bottoms, they hurt less) and they came up with a new nappy. They suggested I tried it and suggested I moved down a size. A smaller size actually was useful. My twins are 9 kilos and the smaller nappy up to 9 kilos was a better fit. And they really hold – I left them a whole day in a nappy and it took it. I was impressed. What I don’t like is that it all gathers at the base of the nappy. But it does actually work.

I would say it is highly recommended for absorbency but it gets very heavy quite quickly. I would score it 7/10.
