Huggies Dry Pants

It has always been a struggle to put the diapers on my active Cedric boy. One second he is lying there, another second he is gone, trying to escape from mommy's evil clutches. 

I have been thinking whether it is time to change him to diaper pants for better convenience, which are supposedly designed to help end/ease the diapers struggle with toddlers. So when I received a bag of Huggies Dry Pants samples from Huggies Malaysia as part of their blogger contest goodies, I am more than happy to let Cedric try it out. 

More information on Huggies Dry Pants can be obtained from www.facebook.com/HuggiesMalaysia


So far Cedric has tried 4pcs of Huggies Dry Pants, M size. Below is the summary of my review:-

(Scale * Very bad ** Poor *** OK **** Good *****Excellent)

Ease of Use **** - Generally it is quite easy to use. When the toddler is refusing to lay down still for conventional diapers wearing, and is struggling to escape, what I did was, I sat Cedric on my lap, and put the Huggies Dry Pants on like putting a normal pants. The stretchable side makes the pulling up easier and smoother. 


3 simple steps to wearing Huggies Dry Pants - Koyak, Salin & Lepas!


Save of Time ****  - Of course there are still some strugglings involved when I tried to put the diaper pants on Cedric, but compared to conventional diapers which I have to keep pinning the screaming boy down while I try to tape and adjust the diaper, the diaper pants is much easier and quicker. With the conventional diapers, the baby has to be lying still for the diapers to be put on properly, if the baby moves or tries to roll over half way through the wearing process, the diaper has to be readjusted, and the process can repeat a few times, which is time consuming. With a diaper pants, the hardest work is to put the baby's 2 legs through the pants. Once the pants is on, it can be pulled up and be adjusted even when the baby is on the move. This save a lot of time and screaming.

Diaper Rash Prevention ****  - Cedric didn't develop any diaper rash or redness from wearing the Huggies Dry Pants. 

Huggies claims that they are Malaysia's first brand of disposable diapers which is clinically proven to prevent diaper rash.

Absorbency *** - I has been using Huggies conventional diapers for Cedric's day use for more than a year now. Usually for day time, I change his diapers every 4-5 hours, with the diapers about 70-80% full. Much like its sister diapers, I feel that the Huggies Dry Pants is good for day use of 4-5 hours without leakage. I have not tried it for night use of 10-12 hours, so no comment on that.     

Leakage Prevention **** - No leakage from 4-5 hours of wearing.

Comfort *** - The material of the diaper is quite soft to touch, and the stretchable sides help to prevent red marks on baby's skin. 

Cutting *** - The cutting of the diaper pants not big. Cedric is wearing M size of the conventional diapers quite comfortably, but with the Dry Pants, I feel that M size is a bit tight. And with conventional diapers, I like to put them on in a way that the back side is slightly higher than the front, so that when he poos, the higher back will prevent the poo poo from staining the clothes at the back. With Huggies Dry Pants, I notice that there is no front and back, as in both front and back is of the same length and design. 

Design & Presentation ** - I find the blue colour cartoons and wordings on the diapers a bit dull. 

Will I use Huggies Dry Pants on Cedric? **** -  Yes, for day use.
