the poo poos & the pee pees.

so this particular entry is really more geared to the other moms out there. sorry to all of you other readers that do not have children but instead like to read my blog for purposes that can only be described as morbid curiousity perhaps? thats cool too. but i need to take a minute to talk about the pee pees and the poo poos.

as many of you know, we have had to deal with quite a few allergy issues with the baby dino. although i am happy to announce that im fairly certain that he has gotten over his dairy allergy! woohoo! we still have some other things to figure out...

his face has not broken out in quite some time and were thinking that it may be due to a switch in our diaper brands. weird, i know. but apparently pampers brand changed up their 'formula' and the new diapers were not being as widely accepted as they wouldve liked. we read that they were causing 'chemical like burns' on some babies; i know, terrible, right? then i saw the pictures and realized that avery had those same things... initially i just thought i was a terrible mom and either not changing his diaper often enough or his little heiny cakes did not like any of the diaper creams we were using. (i eventually had to get prescription stuff from the dr) anyway, wil started thinking that maybe the diapers were also causing the face rash which totally made no sense to me... until wade pointed out that while i change ashelys diaper i always hand him the diaper to 'hold' (it keeps him still). so of course while hes holding it and looking at it its all up in his face. so i figured what the heck, lets switch em up! btw... i think i was buying the most expensive pampers sensitive because of my allergy baby.

so we switched it up and aside from a few days of red eyes, ave has been rash free... so we switched and weve been trying different brands but im not sure which ones i like the best. huggies do have the super cute new 'jean' diapers that are hilarious.


but ive also tried luvs which are super soft but dont have the same absorbancy level... those are the only brands ive tried, just because its expensive to try things out and have his cakes hate them.

so im posting a little poll on the left hand side of the page so give me your votes. which dipes do you use on your sweet little heiny cakes?

as generic as they are, i also like the kirkland brand (from costco). they seem to fit Leia's body shape the best. but huggies are by far my favorite

I voted on Huggies and Target brand. Never had any problems with either...and I've also gotten Costco brand before and not had problems. Pretty sure they are the same as Huggies. SOOO glad you figured out where the rash was coming from! That is scary it's from the diapers though. We only used Pampers when Noah was born b/c they came from the hospital. They leaked like mad!!! We get a huge box of Huggies from Costco now. They last a long time. Hope that helps!
