Disposable diapers...
I've always been a Pampers Mom... Ds#1 used Swaddlers and Cruisers. I tried Huggies and a few store brands we received from the baby shower, but Pampers seemed to be the only thing he didn't leak through at night.
DS#2 used Swaddlers Sensitive as a newborn, then Swaddlers, then Cruisers.
I loved the indicator on the sensitive diapers! He got rsv... we were in the dr office every day for a week & our dr called me every night to check on the baby. I had to wake up around the clock to give him breathing treatments, make sure he was eating, and make sure he was peeing, if anything went wrong we would have ended up in the hospital. Sometimes he would pee so little you really couldn't tell the diaper was wet unless you really examined it... but with the indicator I knew every time he went!
When pampers switched to their new dry-max formula I heard nothing but bad about it, so I was afraid to even try them because he has a very sensitive little butt... by this time we were fighting horrible diaper rashes that even prescription cream wouldn't clear up. I tried the Huggies again, and sure enough he peed through every time (I don't understand why my boys had such a problem with huggies?! I know so many people that use them and love them!) In a panic to find a new diaper because it was getting hard to find regular cruisers without the drymax, I decided to try a "cheap" diaper and bought Luvs... absolutely confident that they were going to make my son's rash even worse because they were "cheap." Who would have thought I was going to fall in love with Luvs and my son's rash actually went away?!
So I buy Luvs from our local wholesale club... with the coupons that are always out, I can get a box of 150 for @ $23 compared to a box of @124 for @$40... Love the diaper... love the price! (But I admit... the new baby will probably get Swaddlers Sensitive until it's crawling... but then its Luvs for sure!)
