How are these not Pull Ups?? Is this just a marketing thing? Is anyone using them?

I think they are actual diapers, unlike pullups which are just meant to control accidents when potty training and not as absorbent or protective.
I don't think we need them but they might be nice in some situations.

Yep, absorbent like reg diapers but pull on like pull ups. I have to say I really don't understand why these are easier. Its not like you can do a good butt wipe while they're walking along or something? And what happens if there's poop? These just seem a lot like the design of swim diapers which I hate.

I think that they have tear-able side openings so when you change them, you can still take them off like a regular diaper.

We have a bunch, good coupons coupled with a good sale. They are regular diapers that just pull up like a pull up. Pull ups aren't designed to pull the pee away, basically make the kid feel wet and old a large amount of liquid. They have pull sides if you put them on like regular diapers that you can reattach them unlike little swimmers. I find them nice for in the diaper bag since Coby freaks out sometimes at the site of those public changers.

What I first thought about them was it isnt any easier to pull up a diaper on a squirming kid than it is to put a regular one on. And they cost almost twice as much as regular diapers! If I found an awesome sale, I might pick up a pack, but I haven't bought diapers in a store in over a year, and I'm in no danger of running out of my supply of regular pampers anytime soon, so I probably won't get them.

Where do you buy? Online I assume... wherever you can or a specific site?

yeah online, Amazon. I think I got a box from diapers.com when I had an intro price, but it's been Amazon since then, with the Amazon Mom and Subscribe & Save program

I just bought some on Saturday-they are rather blah for the money IMO. Kind of nice for day time, but we almost had a poopy explosion out the back of one last night. I think they might be more useful when we start actively potty training- they are easy to pull off like pull ups.

I think some people like them because they have kids who refuse to lay down, and that would be easier (I think) to put on a standing up toddler. They would not be easier for me, though!

Yeah CVS had them on sale for $7 a Jumbo package and I had some $3 coupons. So for $4 a package of diapers I couldn't leave them in the store.

these are so useless for us! I'm going to give the whole package away-the almost poop explosion turned into a horrid mess the next day. The leg holes are wider than regular diapers so we had poop all over his pants, down the legs, and a very unhappy mom carting poop monster to the tub.
