Great value for newborn

published

Used huggies newborn, very soft and comfort and always keep the baby skin dry. Don't have nappy rashes or other problems. I guess the major concerns for being a mum was no need to care about whether the nappy will leak or not. I certainly don't have that issue.
Great value compared to other brand I'll say.

Nappies that do the job properly.

published

Read some bad reviews on here as well as Facebook about this product and have to disagree. I find that I don't get leaks, rashes or have a poor fitting with these nappies for my 1week old baby. Only thing I can say is I'm glad I didn't get another large box as my little one is growing out of the newborn ones already at just a week old.

Great nappies

published

The huggies newborn nappies were the only nappies that were small enough to fit my newborn baby. All other brands tried, which were quite a few were too big and looked very awkward. Found the huggies to be the best and most absorbent nappies that I have used, even the bigger sizes

Our twins have been using these nappies for 4 weeks now,
we have used 4 of the boxes with 96 nappies and have not had 1 leak.
They are a good fit, I found them slimmer than other brands which was good for my small premmies who when born weighed just over 2.2kgs each.
I definitely would recommend them to other parents !

Best nappies ever

published

No problems with these nappies from day one. Not sure why people say they leak or the wetness indicator doesn't work as I have never had this problem before. There were no leaks even after long car rides etc. I have tried different cheaper brands and those leak after a few hours and don't hold "poo explosions''. My son has never had baby rash or any other reactions.
The only negative thing I can think of is the price, they are quite expensive compared to other brands but I always buy in bulk when on sale so not really a problem.
My son is 8 months now and we have been buying huggies since these.

Useless indicator

published

Bought Huggies Ultimate Newborn, she is on day 3 and is always complaining about wet nappies. The indicator is simply useless as it never turns blue even when it's soaked through. We thought she's stayed dry all day but she's been weeing multiple times and now she has a bum rash, will not be buying again!

Not fit for purpose in spite of branding

published

I had recommendations to avoid these nappies. They are so poor at protecting against leaks that I currently have a 100% strike rate in changing baby clothes. This started from our newborn's very first waste ejection at the hospital and our use of Huggies after a competitor's one we purchased ran out. It's time consuming and laundry detergent wasting for such a poor product that I might as well use a 56L bin liner to cover the baby and would do a much better job. Unfortunately we have a whole large box worth given by good friends that we're stuck with.

Terrible diaper

published

My son constantly cries because his diaper and clothes are wet. This diaper is not very sturdy and doesn't keep anything dry. I have to change him tons of times causing me to go through more diapers than I need to which costs more money. I will be switching right back to the Pampers Brand. I should've never left them.

Good at the start

published

These nappies were pretty good to start with when we first brought our baby home. We thought that if the hospital used them they must be ok. Now he has grown a bit bigger (4kg+) we have found that baby is waking up screaming trough the night due to wet clothing. Experimented with different nappies and found it was only when the newborn Huggies were used. Definitely do not recommend this product if you value yours or your child's sleep.

Very bad experience.

published

My baby boy is 9 months old now. I have used huggies when he was born and when I put on the diaper at night and in the morning my babies pants will be all wet so i changed it.. I tried using again now and the story is still same. I'm very satisfied with treasures which is very hard to find in Australia.

1st time great time

published

I had lots of samples/trial packs as I'm a first time mum so didn't know one from the other. The hospital used these which is encouraging and by far one of the better fitting nappies I've come across. After trailing others these are in comparison very absorbent, no leaks, friendly on bubs skin.

Huggies new born ultimate-best so far our little child

published

So far the best nappy for our new born. Our child is tiny & perfect light weight & reliable. However we gonna try ALDI once she gets a bit bigger as we heard good things. Nappy often dry & no nappy rash. Good quality & no leaking, easy to use!

No Complaints Here

published

Why would anyone have anything bad to say about Huggies. They are the Ferrari of Nappies! We have 3 children, and have always used Huggies ever since we tried a number of brands early on with our first born, and realised that Huggies were the best in the end.

No leaking problems, no issues with the nappy tie not sticking.

Best nappies on the market

published

I cant believe the bad reviews at all. I have two children that have both used huggies and they are by far the best quality and almost always leak proof unlike the cheaper brands. Maybe people need to change their children more frequently and not leave the same nappy on all day!

Worst nappies ever! Don't do it to yourself!

published

I never review things - ever, but these nappies are terrible. Bad fit, once baby is over 3kg and leak consistantly. I feel like huggies owes me an apology from all of the sleep I have lost in the last 24 hours from dealing with a screaming bubba who has woken soaked through after every pee. Going back to Aldi's, which are brilliant. Worst decision to buy a big box of huggies :-(

Not that reliable

published

I have relied on Huggies for my three children but the brand seemed to have declined in consistency through the years. The newborn version seems to be effective only for the early years and no longer reliable if bub is above normal in weight. It has been smooth sailing in my first two childbirths but my third child was born he was big at nearly 4 kilos which means though he is newborn, the nappies don't fit him well and the poo and pee leaks especially at night time when he is asleep.

Great for small babies

published

My twins were born at 2.3kg and these nappies were perfect for them. Every other brand was to big. There was the occasional urine and poo leak but the majority of the time they were great. When the twins reached 3.5kg they outgrew them and we had to switch to another brand. If you know you're going to have a big baby I would buy another brand.

Doesnt stop #3s!!!

published

I find that my babies poo leaks out the sides and the top of huggies nappies... the newborn nappies are tiny and my baby only lasted three weeks in them! I also found when baby was in capsule she got nasty red marks from them and they were not even on tight or for long period of time. I found that aldi nappies kept the poo in more due to the fact they fit more snug around the legs and are higher up the back and front! Both nappies have wetness indicator that i love and make it easier to know when changes are required

Not fit for babies over 4 kgs

published

We started using these nappies on our new born baby, we ended up having to give away an unopen box of +100 nappies, even though, the packaging says, up to 5 kgs, that's completely untrue, those nappies leak all the time. These nappies are just a marketing thing, no more, I would recommend to use them for the first 2 weeks and that's it, don't stock too much, your baby will over grow them very quickly.
