The Different Types of Pampers Diapers

Keep reading to find out how to choose between the different Pampers:

Swaddlers vs Swaddlers sensitive

Similarities: Both these diapers have adjustable fasteners and stretchy sides that move and flex with your baby. Furthermore, both are designed for infants as opposed to mobile babies.

Differences: Swaddlers Sensitives are hypoallergenic diapers created for babies with sensitive skin. Thus Swaddlers Sensitives are more expensive than Swaddlers.

Choosing between the two: Most parents will be happy with Swaddlers so there is probably no need to pay the premium price for Swaddlers Sensitives. However, if you find your baby gets diaper rashes easily or has sensitive skin then you should buy Swaddlers Sensitives instead.

Swaddlers vs Cruisers

Similarities: Both these diapers are equally absorbent, and are intended to keep your baby dry for up to 12 hours.

Differences: Swaddlers are designed for infants, while Cruisers are designed for mobile babies (crawling or walking.) Swaddlers have a wetness indicator while Cruisers do not. Cruisers come in size 3 and up, while Swaddlers come in all sizes.

Choosing between the two: We recommend using Swaddlers until your baby can crawl. After that, you should consider switching to cruisers. Keep in mind that some moms love Swaddlers so much, that they continue using Swaddlers till their children are potty trained.

Baby Dry vs Extra Protection Pampers

Similarities: Neither diapers have stretch waistbands or extra snug fit. Neither have a wetness indicator. They both have an ultra-absorbent core to keep your baby drier for longer.

Differences:Extra Protection Pampers has 25% better absorbancy than Baby Dry Pampers, and are therefore more expensive then Baby Dry.Extra protection Pampers come in sizes 3-5, while Baby Dry is available in all sizes.

Choosing between the two: Both these diapers are designed for overnight use, or for baby’s who pee very often. Try Baby Dry pampers first, as they are likely to be absorbent enough to keep your baby dry. Only switch to Extra protection if you find that the Extra Dry Pampers are not keeping your Baby’s bum dry enough.

Baby Dry vs Cruisers

Similarities: Both these diapers are used mainly by older babies.

Differences: Baby Dry diapers have an ultra-absorbent core to keep your baby drier for longer, while Cruisers give your babies a more snug fit. Cruisers are available in sizes 3+, while Baby Dry is available in all sizes. Baby Dry is also cheaper than cruisers.

Choosing between the two: Since you will only be deciding between these diapers when your baby is older, you will have a better idea of how often you have diaper blowouts and how important fit is in your baby. If diaper blowouts are a problem for your baby than we recommend buying Cruisers. If not then go for the cheaper option of Baby Dry Pampers, which will allow your babies bum to stay dry for longer.
