Hey lovelies! Any advice with nappies? First time mum and still learning - only 16 days in ☺️ my little guy is wearing first size pampers protection nappies but every day he is weeing/leaking through them! I always make sure the willy is pointing down and fasten the nappy properly etc what could be going wrong?

Hi.. Check the ruffles on the side to make sure they are open!

Not experienced this and also using Pampers...
Have you made sure ruffles are open like Sonal said x

Thanks both I will double check I’m doing that next change ☺️

Im 9 days in, so feel like its maybe yet to happen to me 🤣

Have only had one instance of a leak but that is because his vest was too tight thus impacting the ability for the nappy to expand fully as the wee is absorbed. Also check ruffles as others have said.

We found pampers to leak too, and occasionally the Aldi ones have too. We've been using Sainsbury's own brand for a week and have had no leaks so far

Never like pampers when I had my first I used them for a while but found they leak all the time so I switched and always used Asda little angels brand and I'm now on number baby number 6 and will be using them too

Have you tried moving up to size 2? We had lots of leaks especially if the Willy wasn’t pointing down!

Size up, my little one is already using size 3 (sainsburys brand) since 5 weeks old. He is average size, bang on 50 percentile

I have tested a few nappies and swear by Tesco own! They are the only ones that haven’t leaked for us! X

Same we hated pampers went best with Sainsburys own asdas not too bad eithet

We found pampers size 1 to leak too. They seem to be quite big. We are using Aldi newborn they are quite a bit smaller and haven’t had any leaks. As with all nappies just make sure the ruffles on the side are out :) but yeah Pampers I think come up big so if you have a small baby may be due to that :)

Thank you so much everyone!! I will try some other brands like you’ve said - Tesco, Sainsbury’s etc and maybe will size up because he has put a lot of weight on since birth and he is still smallish but very long limbs and torso so I think it could be a size issue too…. You are all amazing thanks!! Xxxx

An update - I switched to Tesco own nappies and not a single leak…. 🧐 haha thanks all! Xxx
