When my son started to refuse to lay down to have his nappy change, both he and I were getting upset and frustrated at having to wrestle all the time. I decided to give nappy pants a try, as I would be able to change him standing up, so now I can give a full review of the nappies in question!
I have used Pampers for my son ever since he was born, so of course I decided to continue with Pampers and try their Easy Up Pants range. These are readily available in most supermarkets and chemists and are stocked alongside the normal nappies.
The one major difference I have noticed with the Easy Ups is that ount as the other nappies I buy, you get a lot less in the packet. My son is currently in size 4+ and I get about 44 in a pack of Pull Ups, but I get 56 when I buy Pampers Baby Dry.
I have also found that the pull ups are quite a bit less absorbent than the other nappies I buy for Harry, which are either Baby Dry or Active Fit. Also if he has bad diarroeha, they didnt hold in his poo as well as the other nappies. I was really disappointed witht these nappies actually.
They did have nice easy tear sides so I was able to take them off while my son stood up, so it did solve our nappy changing nightmares.
However, Harry just was not comfortable with these and I have since reverted to using Active Fit, which work a lot better and I get more for my money. These nappies are good but I do not think that they are absorbent enough and I don't like that you get less for your money when they don't stay on my son that long!
Overall a disappointing nappy from a great company.

When my little sisters where in nappies my mum never use to use pampers she would always used huggies and to be honest i think they were better pampers

Sorry but correct me if i am wrong. These are supposed to be used as to when you are about to potty train your child. It's the same with learn and feel from Pampers. Hence to why they don't hold much. Though good review all the same. x

I agree they are less absorbant but i found them very useful when my twins used them, especially when we were out and about. Good review. Amanda
