Customer Reviews of Pampers Swaddlers Sensitive Diapers, Size 2, 152 Count
Customer Review: Not so sensitive
Summary: 4 Stars
I love these diapers. They are just like the ones they used in the hospital. I especially like the indicator strip and how soft they are. My question is....what makes these diapers "sensitive" compared to the regular Swaddlers? The regular Swaddlers feel just as soft. I bought an econo case of the diapers assuming that they would be fragrance free, etc. as one would expect a "sensitive" product to be. Imagine my disappointment when I opened the package and was greeted by a huge whiff of perfume. Unfortunately, the diapers are not returnable once the package has been opened. I wrote to Pampers to complain about the fragrance - suggesting that any product labeled as sensitive should not have fragrance. They responded saying that the perfume is in between the core and the sheet that touches the baby, therefore it doesn't touch the baby's skin. I don't believe it, and my question about what makes them sensitive compared to the regular Swaddlers was never answered. All in all, these are great diapers ... much better than Huggies ... though we have had some pretty serious blowouts lately.Customer Review: Just like the classic swaddlers!
Summary: 5 Stars
We used Pampers Swaddlers with our first daughter because they were the softest, most absorbent diapers we could find. This is also the brand that was provided by the hospital and we were hooked! We tried various brands including Huggies, Luvs, and Costco diapers and definitely felt that the Swaddlers seemed the most comfortable based on the feel of the diaper when it was wet.
With our second daughter, Pampers had come out with their dry-max technology, which worried us because of the report of chemical burns and the consumer safety commission investigation. We found that the Swaddler Sensitive are just like the classic Swaddlers, with the addition of the yellow strip on the front that turns blue when the baby wets the diaper, so now you don't even have to pinch the diaper to tell if it's wet, you can just take a peek.
Definitely the best diaper on the market for a newborn, and worth the extra money for the wet/dry strip alone.
REVISED: The Size 3 does not have the wet/dry strip. I will not buy again as this is the reason I buy the sensitive.
Customer Review: chemical overload
Summary: 2 Stars
The hospital used these (Swaddlers Sensitive) on our newborn, and the nifty yellow-blue line that indicates wet or dry feature was great for us new parents. They proved hard to find in stores, however, and it was a few months before we found them again on Amazon. Excited as we were, out of the box, we noticed a distinct odor that was more chemical than baby powder. As time went on, it became clear that the odor was not just strong, it also caused our baby to rub her eyes, squirm when wearing them, and generally resist the diaper altogether. We too became somewhat overpowered and repelled by the scent.
I'm a few too many diapers into the box to feel like I can justifiably return them, but I would do so, if only to send the message to Proctor & Gamble. These have made me rethink cloth diapers as a better way. If you have a dead nose, they work brilliantly at keeping baby dry (hence the 2 stars). But I feel that in this case, the odor could well be attributed to something less than healthy. So use with caution.
Customer Review: Liked these at first but... now I use Huggies
Summary: 1 Stars
I REALLY liked these diapers when I started using them.
My baby developed a rash that got worse and worse over time. It started out as a rough patch of skin, and ended up as almost 10 rough patches that were red and itchy. The pediatrician told me that it was just dry skin, but I wondered what was causing it. I tried everything from changing laundry soaps, to not bathing as often and changing soaps, to even changing the kind of clothes she was wearing and lotions. Then I finally realized it was the diapers. And they are for sensitive skin! It has been 4 days since she stopped wearing them, and her rash has started to heal already. She also had a rough patch of skin on her back from a hard bumpy part of the diaper. I now use Huggies Little Snugglers. They absorb her poo and pee the same as Pampers, but they fit her better and don't give her a rash or irritate her skin in any way. Huggies are always on top of things.
Customer Review: Causing Severe Rashes
Summary: 1 Stars
I've been purchasing diapers from Amazon for almost 5-6 months now.During the last two sets of diapers I've received, there has been something going wrong. I assumed that my kid was just getting diaper rashes, but the rash started growing. Initially, using a diaper rash cream kept it under control, but now after going to a doctor and trying 2 different kinds of creams, it was still not under control.
We switched to cloth diapers for 2 days and everything is under control and without the use of diaper rash cream.It is either these two batches of diapers from Pampers or may be just the diapers that Amazon is selling.
Just be cautious and look out when you get this product.
Update: I've moved to a generic brand from Walmart and everything is fine. I tried Pampers again just to see if it was a random thing any my kid got back the rashes.
