Nappy help !!

Little one has just sized up to size 3 in nappies and we were using Tesco size 2. We tried Aldi, Lidl, pampers and all gave her nappy rash. Asdas and Sainsbury’s are 45 minutes away from us so haven’t tried as can’t get them in an emergency if that makes sense so would be like a 3 hour round trip just for nappies. Size 3 in Tesco however are completely different to size 2 and we have nappy rash again 😭 I found that size 2 Tesco were more like paper and don’t have as much of the absorbent material which I think is what is kicking off the nappy rash. Other than going reusable which I really don’t want to do are there any size 3 nappies that are more papery if that makes sense like Tesco size 2 ?

Show your support

Pampers have different types? Or does your LO respond badly to all of them? Have you tried different barrier creams? Try Huggies maybe

Is your little one still getting the nappy rash even if you do some nappy free time? Also, Could it be the wipes you use (if you use wipes?) Some wipes even though they say 99% water still contain a little bit of perfume or chemicals which can still be too sensitive for little babies skin

Kit & Kin has been a life saver for me! You can get them from boots

I have two very sensitive boys - I found pampers great (I order them from boots on offer) and they don’t have any reaction or nappy rash from them ever (they did from lidl/aldi/tescos nappies). I change my little boy before every feed so at least 6-8 times a day ☺️

@Dominique it seems to be the ones with the more absorbent gel give her the rash. We have only tried pampers size 1 so will have a look at the size 3. Again only barrier cream that she doesn’t react to is metanium 🙃

@Katie we are pampers sensitive and have been since day dot. I try and do at least 30 mins nappy free time a day whilst she is on her mat or after a nappy change

@Tilly I’ll have another look at pampers then. My first was the same but could only ever wear pampers so maybe worth a revisit ! X

@Katie they do like 3 different types of the size 3s

Their website has some quiz to find out

@Dominique oh god 😂 I don’t remember this being so complicated 3 years ago 😂😂

My little one had a nappy rash and the only thing that worked was some sudosalve…cleared within two days and hasn’t come back since no matter which nappies we use (I have used Lidl, Aldi, Pampers and Amazon Mama Bear) so maybe this will help 😊

Do you have a boots nearby? I rate boots nappies. Or if you’re not on a budget I was gifted some mamma bamboo nappies and I love them but they are expensive unfortunately x

Can you do Asda online groceries and be delivered? We use the little angles, no issues and they are sooo cheap, size 2 it's 5 to 8kg £1.25, no rash Otherwise have you tried a good nappy rash cream and change more often. We use Child's Farm nappy cream as preventive measures and will use sudocream if she has one, none so far
