pic for reference

with most diapers i’ve tried he keeps having leaks from the top when the rest of the diaper is dry. for reference, these are huggies snug and dry, but it’s with multiple different ones that worked for my first son.

for my baby shower i asked solely for rascals because those worked for my first son the best and now i have so many boxes that i cant use because they leak like this.

for reference the only diapers that didnt leak were luvs and parents choice surprisingly. all huggies brand do this and rascals/millie moon

I’ve also tried having the penis pointed up but tucking the top of the diaper around it (gently) before sealing it up. That worked better for me than tucking it straight down.

Buy yourself noise cancelling head phones if you get headaches. Thank me later.

Thank you! Will relay this to my husband. He says the noise makes him feel like he's going crazy haha

Totally worth it. You can still hear stuff but it’s way less intense. Just remind him that if your kids are over 1, and it gets really quiet but kids aren’t eating- IMMEDIATELY SEE WHAT THEY’RE DOING. Whatever it is, it’s bad lol
