I was adament that huggies were best when DD1 was little but she was in Aldi nappies by the time DD2 came along and we've never gone back.
The aldi newborn were perfectly fine as far as i was concerned, never leaked (aside from the occasional MASSIVE overflow, but i also got that with huggies).
I still love huggies have not had issues with leakage etc. Aldi I used sometimes with DS1 no issues, DS2 times I have used they have leaked.
Snugglers and Baby love never worked for my kids.
Safeway select and Coles brand (have gum nuts baby on them) have been good.
But I do tend to buy huggies as found to be great!
I have never had a problem with Huggies. Have used them for both my kids, and for over 7 years at work. Never had them cause a rash on any baby I have looked after.
Huggies all the way here Never have had a problem with them! Miss H NEVER got nappy rash EVER, until I tried her in a Pamper nappy...whamo! her lil girly bits flared right up!
We also tried the Aldi ones, as we were told how awesome they are....well, I couldn't get past the smell they have...BEFORE they go on bubs! I did try one on Miss H and again, she flared straight up in a rash..
My experience with huggies were they arent good for bubbas with chicken legs, my DD always leaked so we used the aldi newborns which we found great plus really cheap. Then we went with babylove (before the dry wave design) and they were good for a while then she started getting nappy rashes so we went between huggies/coles branded and aldi.
I now only use babylove as the new dry wave design is great shes not had a single nappy rash it hold a lot of liquid specially since my DD loves her drinks.
For the new baby i have a pack of huggies, aldi and woolies select to try and see what works for us.
Can I be not very helpful & say it depends on the shape of your bub?? I have found different nappies have worked better or worse for my differently-shaped boys.
DS1 leaked terribly in Huggies (both newborn and larger sizes), but was great in Babylove or ALDI. For DS2, I preferred the Babylove newborn (with the poo-pocket thing at the back) to the Huggies newborn, but I honestly didn't find the sposies contained the newborn poo as well as cloth does. Once DS2 was older, we had problems with Babylove, but found Huggies are fine, as are the Coles Comfy Bots (they are the white packet ones that Sunshine mentioned) - they are really cheap & work quite well (comparably with Huggies).
Baby Love all the way here Love the poo poo pouch in the smaller nappies! Only other disposable nappy we have used are Huggies, however my oldest had a terrible reaction last year that looked almost like a chemical burn so haven't used them since. I found they leaked a lot too.
