Anyway, for disposable diapers, I had sent in requests for samples. I was sent samples for Huggies, Drypers, Merries and Mamy Poko. The hospital used Huggies for Boo when he was there and they gave us a packet.
Huggies - Right from the start, we did not like Huggies as it was a poor fit for Boo, and his poop kept leaking.
Merries - Was okay. The fit wasn't the best, but it was okay, so we didn't continue with it.
Mamy Poko - We liked this. The fit was not bad. We are now back to using Mamy Poko as we switched to the pants-type disposable diapers.
Drypers - The fit for Drypers was the best so we stuck with Drypers for a bit. We were okay with it, but found it a bit bulky. Later (at around 3 months, I think), we also had issues with his poop leaking (his poop was very explosive then).
Pampers - I visited a friend, and happened to need a diaper. She was using Pampers, so she gave me one from Pampers. We loved it! It was very soft, and the diaper was thinner than Drypers. We did not have any issues with leaky poop with Pampers.
Onwards - this is a local brand. We just tried their sample very recently. Seems okay, but we have started using the pants-type diaper. If we were to go back to the ones that are fastened on both sides, we will try Onwards.
Don't buy diapers in bulk before your baby is born. Some bulk discounts are very tempting but your baby's skin might not take to certain brands well. Also, you don't know how fast your baby grows. We used S size diapers for a very, very brief period before we changed to M, and the L not too long after.
