Oh yes I have to agree - as an infant it was Pampers or bust. At age 2 we switched to Luvs, but it was because we preferred them for some reason - the cheapness was just a fringe benefit - and it still isn't generic.
I have to say that we've always, always used the yellow WalMart brand (Parents Choice I believe) and never once had a leak. Maybe my kids just don't pee-pee a lot! :)
It took the fourth child to say, "Absolutely not" to generic. I am tempted, but my husband simply reminds me of history. Saving money or saving sanity, and carpets, and sheets, and in your case, jeans. It's a simple not so simple decision:)
Been there! As far as diapers go..I buy White Cloud..they're not bad at all and not nearly as expensive as Pampers and Huggies. Although, I do have to buy the Huggies overnights..otherwise I'm washing crib bedding every morning!
Yeah, that is no fun at all. I finally learned my lesson the hard way, too. Funny thing, though, when my daughter turned one she could wear generics no problem without every having to worry about a leak. So weird...

About Me
Hi! My name is Crystal and I'd like to welcome you to LifeAtTheCircus. My roles as wife, homemaker and homeschooling mother of 4 feel much like a circus with 3 rings constantly vying for my attention. Life is often chaotic but I'm loving every minute and wouldn't want it any other way.
Yep, I agree
ReplyDeleteYep learned that the hard way too!
ReplyDeleteOh dear. That is not nice. No, not nice at all. Luvs are good and inexpensive.
ReplyDeleteOh, NO!!! I can't tell you how many times I had to change myself when Will was a baby...he was king of the blowout!
ReplyDeleteOops! I had some of those moments with generic diapers. Now we cloth diaper so I don't have to worry about it.
ReplyDeleteI just hate when that happens!
ReplyDeleteYeah, been there, too. :)
ReplyDeleteI think that's a rite of passage for every Mom! lol
ReplyDeleteAhhh, memories! LOL. Funny pic! I remember those days. ;o)
ReplyDeleteI've been there too and yet, I'd rather buy a box for $14 rather than $20.
ReplyDeleteYikes!! Sometimes, generic is NOT the same! We found out the hard way too:-(
ReplyDeleteAck!! One of THOSE pictures!
ReplyDeletesigned,
A Dad :)
HAHAHA! UH OH!
ReplyDeleteMakes me glad we are out of the diaper phase...
ReplyDeleteOh, so sad. Glad to be finished with diapers for sure.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!

ReplyDeleteOh my! Gotta be pampers or luvs. And I find that the pull ups leak as well.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your jeans!
I agree with you on that one! I can not use those cheap diapers on my son. They always leak. Happy WW! mine is up.
ReplyDeleteI thought that about some name brand diapers too. I think you always need to find the diaper that fits your kid best. Kind of like women and jeans.
ReplyDeleteDid you wet yourself again???
ReplyDeleteHonestly, you could splurge for the Pampers for yourself, couldn't ya???
Sorry...I had to. I couldn't help myself.
I hate it when that happnes, for real though.
Ick.
Gotta go...I'm on throw up patrol today. Yippee!
Oh no- diaper leaks are for the birds!
ReplyDeleteHappy WW! =)
oh man! how well i remember! happy ww!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that we've always, always used the yellow WalMart brand (Parents Choice I believe) and never once had a leak. Maybe my kids just don't pee-pee a lot! :)
ReplyDeleteYikes. I would be switching diaper brands really fast!
ReplyDeleteYup, pampers it is!
ReplyDeleteOh dear, that looks familiar! LOL!

ReplyDeleteUgh....I remember those days. Happy WW
ReplyDeleteThat's funny! (Although name brand ones leak sometimes too!)
ReplyDeleteI can't even count how many times that has happened to me. No more generics!! Happy WW!
ReplyDeleteYeah, that is no fun at all. I finally learned my lesson the hard way, too. Funny thing, though, when my daughter turned one she could wear generics no problem without every having to worry about a leak. So weird...
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!
Oh what fun!
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more. Luvs or Pampers are for me!!!
ReplyDeleteI really really hope it wasn't the Target brand that did that you. They were my last hope for generic diapers...
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I totally agree. And well remember the days... :) Happy WW!
