Hi everyone,
We are settling in NZ quite nicely, getting used to the country's character. We do have a number of issues, and wondered if any forumites could help us out with. My son (who is 11 months old) wears pampers baby dry nappies and as most other UK parents, have come to realise that there seems to be no pampers in NZ. We are about to run out of the stock we brought over with us. Just wondering if anyone knows if we could get any pampers nappies or if anyone can recommend any nappies that have a reputation for keeping your baby overnight (for a full 12 hours).

Many thanks,

Karl

We use Huggies, but many of my coffee group pals use either Nannys nappies or Air, or Treasures (if you go for treasures, get ultra not giggles for overnights).

Heres a few sites, they will all send you samples too to test run.

I have got a few more if you are interested, or is that enough to keep you going :D ;)

We use huggies, and find them better than pampers!

We actually use, don't laugh all you NZ mum's, Pam's nappies :D They're one of the cheaper brands but they're exactly the same as the Treasures Ultra without the price to match. Keeps my terrible two dry easily over night.

When we came over last year we tried every available brand and did use Treasures Ultra but couldn't bring myself to pay for them in the end as they're expensive, so tried the Pams and they're fantastic :nice1

Alex is nearly 11 months too! We use Huggies or Treasures - whichever is on special at the time. They keep him dry all night. As Sal says, don't be tempted to use Giggles!
