just letting everyone if u didnt know already(sorry if there is a post already, i coulnt see one) Pampers are coming to Aus, i just came across their aussie website..
pretty pricey, but there is an option of a trial pack of 10 nappies of your choice (combo) for $10 ,post inc (posted on out 10th july), also you can pre order boxes
ive heard great things about these nappies so im gonna give em a go.
:-)
cant wait to try them
I thought Big W sold Pampers? Hmm, or Kmart or Target or one of those department stores...? I think I remember seeing them?
I would like to apologise for my earlier post, as I have been told it was reported by some members.
I truly didn't mean anything by it, against disposable nappies, I used them myself for years.
It was about certain ingredients. We have very strong laws governing what goes in our nappies, and some countries dont, and use products a lot of countries don't allow.
I just wanted the mummies on here to know that some nappies have very different components to ours.
I am truly sorry the resource I used came across so wrong.... :cry: Its not what I meant at all....
Again, I am sorry. :redface:
yay i'm so happy that pampers are coming!! :dance: i used them when i was in the uk and i found them so reliable compared to other brands you can get here.
You can get pampers now in some Coles, have a look at their sites.
I use Pampers all the time LOVE THEM.. brilliant.. very very thin great!!! I cannot stand huggies for the life of me
I've heard great things about them. I got some in a nappy cake when miss J was born, they were too small but the friend I gave them to raved about them.
Ooooh, I can't wait to try them :)
I'm assuming that if they are being sold legally in Australia, they would comply with Aus Safety Standards.
Yup, check out Coles sites, they have been trialling them for a while and they are not selling well, as not everyone knows them and sticks to huggies etc that they know.. So I am hoping they will last here and not just come and go, as only a few Coles has them now unfortunatly
Hey like Leasha, I saw them at Big W already. I am very sure they were pampers in a large cardboard box (I think purple and green?)
Hmm i might try them out since ive been having heaps of issues with huggies since they changed their designs.
hmm dont think ill be investing in these, i looked a bit closer at the price and if its worth it or not, i am going to get the trial pack, (coz they are not wholesaling for the time being, they dont supply coles), then ill see ...lol they cost a fortune..SOO EXPENSIVE........ its adds upto about 100 dollars with the postage..per box..im not sure why postage costs so much because ive sent things 1/2 the price in a a box the same size,also never heard of their postal service... i dont have a big w and i think its only coles vic who are stocking them???
boo hooo i got my hopes up for nothing lol never mind, just stick to huggies i guess
It's interesting to look at the ethical buying guide - Pampers & Huggies don't rate too well ...
Love pampers only 1 coles near me have them, huggies i find leak frequently on DS
Just wondered if anyone else has tried them now?
My MIL bought some for miss J & they are just horrible. They are so thin & as a result only last an hour, hour & a half max. You can also feel the absorbing crystals through the nappy which I'm sure would have to be really uncomfortable.
I have tried them on Miss J overnight and we have had the opposite to you Sarah - she can wear them for a good 12 hours straight overnight with no leaks at all. I haven't tried them during the day yet but we will when we go away later in the month.
I am same as Nai 12 hrs easily over night and dont feel any crystals and no leakage issues.
Sarah, Im with you. Firstly, they are mega thin, but okay everyone said that they are suppose to be thin. But when DD wees in them it really sags it down already. Also, once I take off the nappy and feel the inside it is very moist like it didnt absorb properly ANDDDD
I can actually feel the wetness from the outside and see the wee from the outside layer (LOL is that confusing)?
The only good thing is that although it doesnt look like it is absorbing much, DD hasnt had a reaction to them yet (she has bad eczema) but i am not game enough to try them overnight as they have leaked on me a few times (not always but a few times)
