Logan is very chubby!

Awww....I LOVE chubby babies! They are so adorable!

BTW we used pampers for his newborn size and he peed outside the top in
the back/side almost every single pee for a while. They were on the
verge of way too small for him but he still had his umbilical cord
remnant left over and we were waiting for it to fall off before we moved
on to the next size (because the newborn size had cutouts).


I am thinking that maybe it's NOT the Huggies, maybe Rachel needs a bigger
size than NB in Huggies (and also I need to check the "gasket" lol, I never
thought of that). She's tiny but the Huggies NB almost seem to be too short
or small or something....

NB size fit Victor all the way around but they were WAY too short in
the back (they were like hip-huggers and every time he peed, they
leaked) and we had to switch to size 1 in Pampers Swaddlers and
haven't had a leak since -- I guess I'd describe them as being
'taller'.

I wouldn't call Huggies horrible, but I like the Kroger store-brand
diapers a lot better.


As far as I can tell, all the store brand diapers are exactly the same
diaper in a different package. There seem to be two varieties--one with
velcro tabs and one with tape tabs--but I can't find any difference between
the ones I've bought at Target, the ones I've bought at Albertsons, the ones
I've bought at Vons, and the ones I've bought at Ralphs (Kroger), except a
minor difference in price (cheapest at Target). They're all I use and they
work fine.

Could be - I don't know who makes all the house brands. I only buy the
velcro type - and the reason I like Kroger better than Huggies is that
the velcro tab sticks better. I can't figure out why, because IIRC,
Huggies was the first name-brand to have the velcro stuff so you'd think
it would be the best. But that hasn't been my experience. (I've never
had any particular problem with leaking or poor fits from any diapers -
I guess I just have run-of-the-mill-size children. )

The funny thing is, Jacob was big and kind of a chunk and everything but
huggies leaked like mad. Naomi has always been petite (currently just
below 10th percentile for weight and around 18th for height) and Huggies
work great on her, too.
