All the Best Diapers to Keep Your Baby Covered.

The Best Overall Diapers: Pampers Swaddlers

According to Amazon, Pampers Swaddlers are the #1 bestselling diaper and there are 57,664 reviews and a 4.8-star rating to back up that claim.

Pampers diapers are well-loved by caregivers because they’re super absorptive, preventing leaks and keeping your baby comfortable between diaper changes. The BreatheFree liner that is unique to this diaper actually provides moisture-wicking, so your baby’s bottom will feel dry even when their diaper is wet.

As a hypoallergenic diaper that is free from parabens and latex, Pampers Swaddlers work well for little ones with sensitive skin. One common thread found in reviews left by happy parents online is that these diapers are a cut above the rest because they’re less bulky than other popular brands, including Huggies.

All of these positive points have earned Pampers a great reputation, making them the preferred brand of hospitals and pediatricians here in the United States.

A Close Second: Huggies Little Snugglers

As runner up, Huggies Little Snugglers aren’t much of a compromise for your baby. These diapers are designed with two special features: they’re lined with a GentleAbsorb liner, which helps keep babies comfortable between diaper changes and have a special waistband helps prevent blowouts, a major headache any parent will be thrilled to do without.

Without fragrance or parabens, these diapers will work well for most babies, even those with sensitive skin. On Amazon, nearly 15,000 parents and caregivers have given Huggies Little Snugglers a 4.9-star.

“Huggies Little Snugglers have this awesome poop guard in the back that works to prevent blowouts” writes one reviewer. “I don’t know why it took me so long to find these! We like Huggies and I think we’ll be buying this brand from now on!”

The Best Overnight Diapers: Pampers Baby Dry

Your baby is finally sleeping through the night, yay! So the last thing you want is for them to wake up because of a full diaper—you’ll need a diaper that can keep your baby comfortable and leak-free all night long. We think Pampers Baby Dry is the best overnight diapering option and the 10,000 Amazon reviews and 4.8-star rating indicate that parents agree.

Snug, elastic leg openings are meant to help prevent leaks and a triple layer lining makes sure a single diaper can stand up to a restful night’s sleep. They’re designed to be especially breathable, so the wetness doesn’t bug your baby while they’re fast asleep.

The Best Diapers for Newborns: Pampers Swaddlers

No, you’re not seeing double! When we went hunting for the best diaper for newborns, we found ourselves right back where we started — in love with Pampers Swaddlers.

You already know what makes these diapers great for babies of any age. They’re breathable and plenty absorptive without a ton of excess bulk. What makes them the best for the newest babies? Snug but flexible sides keep runny, newborn poop right where it belongs. Plus, a wetness indicator makes keeping up with changes simple, letting you know the diaper is wet.

The Best Diapers for Sensitive Skin: Kudos Diapers

Cotton is one of the most breathable fabrics … ever. Kudos is perfect for little bottoms that require a diaper that breathes with them.  Made from TruCotton sourced from farmers in the U.S., these diapers are hypoallergenic, sustainable, super soft, and an all-around great pick for babies prone to skin issues. Their leak protection is on par with the big brands and with Kudos, there’s no need to shell out extra cash for bulky overnight diapers. Their DoubleDry technology (patent-pending) uses two absorption layers instead of the traditional one layer. The best part: that little line on the front of the diaper changes color when wet so you know it’s changing time!

The Best Earth Friendly Diapers: Earth + Eden

For parents who are hoping to reduce their family’s impact on the environment, disposables are a tricky topic. Cloth diapers are labor-intensive and require a lot of water for cleaning. Cloth just might not be a good option for many parents. But there are still some more earthy-friendly options somewhere in the middle.

For instance, Earth + Eden has worked hard to reduce waste associated with disposable diapers as much as possible. They operate their facility to send no waste to landfills and get their diaper fluff from sustainable sources. You can feel good about using these diapers knowing they have less of an impact on the environment than conventional brands.

Best Natural Diaper: Happy Little Camper

You might know Hilary Duff as Lizzy McGuire (or am I showing my age?), but these days, the soon-to-be mom of three is more into the diaper stage. And we are huge fans of her natural line of baby diapers and wipes, Happy Little Camper.

These natural baby diapers use natural ingredients, including a natural wood pulp bio-core blend and non-GMO cotton. They’re also free of fragrance, chlorine, VOC’s or toxic adhesives. And having tested them at Truly Mama, we can say these natural diapers are the real deal—our Pampers-only mom was a big fan and found them totally comparable to Pampers.

The Best Budget Diaper: Mama Bear

Diapering a baby isn’t cheap. Most families will spend between $70 and $80 a month on diapers according to the National Diaper Bank Network. If you’re looking for a budget diaper that doesn’t compromise on quality, Mama Bear by Amazon is an option worth giving a try. Costing between $.15 and $.20 a diaper, Mama Bear is more affordable than name brands but still has great reviews from caregivers.

These diapers are great for sensitive skin because they’re free from parabens and scents. With a breathable layer on the inside, you don’t have to worry about irritation between diaper changes.
