Mamia nappy pants (Aldi)

Can anyone comment on the quality of these nappies vs pampers active fit nappy pants? My boy is in size 6 pampers active fit nappy pants which I tend to buy in bulk when they’re on offer but I’m 5 months pregnant and I’m almost certain I’m going to have 2 in nappies at the same time, I really don’t think he will be potty trained before the new baby arrives so wondering if I can get him into some cheaper alternatives. I’ve heard some really good things about the mamia aldi ones and a friend recommended them yesterday to me. I’ve always just stuck to pampers as they agreed with him. We already use the fragrance free mamia wipes and love them. Is the sizing similar? How are they for leaks? Are they as soft as pampers?

I’ve always used pampers but had my son in April so decided to cut back on costs as much as we could. We use the Aldi mamia nappies in size 6 for our daughter and we find them brilliant. They are just like pampers in size, I’d say they’re actually softer than pampers and they are really absorbent as no over night leaks so far and she sleeps from 7-6! We still use pampers for our newborn son as we tried Aldi mamia for him but they weren’t a very good xx

We use either Aldi’s or pampers (my boy was in size 6 but just gone to size 7) and I’d say they’re a very similar fit. Never have any issues with the Aldi ones, they work just as good as pampers for us. Would 100% recommend trying them. We also used to use Aldi’s size 1 and 2 when he was a baby and no issues then either x

With my first (she’s now 2yrs old) l was using pampered until told by a friend about Aldi mamia, l would 100% recommend them to anyone, does the job just as pampers brand and way cheaper, l also have a 6 months old, and both are using Aldi… l change my 2yrs old once throughout the night, no bed wet… yes, they are soft as pampers, for me they are really goodxx

I started using the pampers active fit Nappy pants for my son during the night because his normal nappies would leak during the night causing him to wake up more. I tried a few different ones and found the best ones to be asda own brand Nappy pants! They're so much cheaper work so well! I was buying a 6 in pampers but now but 6+ in the asda ones x

I switched to mamia nappy pants from pampers. I find them to be the same but cheaper. Only gripe I had at first was they have not got the strip to close them after you take them off, but now I'm used to not having it.
No leaks at all since I've been using them would definitely recommend x

We have used Aldi nappies for about a year now. I have no problem with them and so much more cheaper than pampers

Just so everyone knows because I didn’t. I thought the little plus + meant like size 5+ so a bit bigger than a size 5. It’s not. The plus means extra absorbing xxx

Thank you all. I’m definitely going to give them a go. Planning to still stick to pampers for the newborn stage but would definitely like to cut costs on my toddlers nappies now. Especially since pampers have changed their app and made it 10x harder to get a free pack of nappies!!😠

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

I think Motherhood has made me more bitter than I realized…

This is such a ramble but I don’t know where else to put it all.

I’m four months in and I don’t really have hobbies right now. I don’t do anything for myself except maybe doomscrolling or listening to a podcast while I breastfeed my baby. I used to craft and have game nights with friends. Activities that usually are at least 2 hour stretches. Now if I have an hour free my mind immediately goes to baby, or doing something in the house for baby.

And I thought I didn’t mind. Like I knew postpartum could be very mentally consuming. But I think it’s altering how I view people around me and it’s prodding at my relationship with my husband.

He spends most of his time making food for us, looking after our dogs, playing with the baby, ect. But he still has time for his hobby. Spends maybe an hour a night on it. Even adapted to using a bot for shopping for his hobby after a certain incident where we had to have a heart to heart after he left me home alone with the baby for hours during a busy workday (I work from home) to shop for his hobby.

And yet there’s like this little green eyed monster in me that rages every time I know he’s running off to start up the bot. Even though I’m the reason he does it this way.

We took a family trip last weekend to see his best friend and their kids and let them meet the baby. He brought the laptop. He’s always brought a laptop on trips and it’s never been a problem to me before. But one night we both woke up while the baby was still asleep, and he wandered out of the room. I tried to fall back asleep but couldn’t. So I went to the kitchen to try having something warm to drink to settle me. And he was there at the table running the bot from his laptop. I flipped out at him. But there really wasn’t reason to. It’s not like I needed help with the baby and he was ignoring me. He wasn’t avoiding our friends. He was just awake and unable to sleep and found something to do with his time. Yet my snap reaction was “why the hell would you do this on a family trip?”

I don’t know what it is. Maybe it’s the less complete sleep from baby’s middle of the night feed? My brain being just consumed by baby? Maybe I’m not as over that shopping incident as I thought? But I’m just so annoyed at his hobby right now. The green eyed monster thinks “you could be using that time differently” but realistically to do what exactly??? Stare at our baby in the dark???

I spent probably an hour apologizing to him after I snapped. And he’s of course hurt and frustrated because I said some very mean things in the moment.

I don’t want to be this jealous, angry person. But I also don’t know how to find time for myself in this right now outside of basic hygiene. It’s like I’ve forgotten how to be myself, even if just for an hour.

Maybe I need a therapist.

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7
