The Tragedy of the “Insta-Leak”
You know what's just the worst? When a brand-new, freshly-taped diaper leaks right away. (Okay, okay, "the worst" is hyperbole. We're all aware at this blog that there are greater tragedies in the world than some pee on the seat of your pants.) But it is obnoxious, even the skeptics will have to grant. It's just such a betrayal. For one [...]

I owe a word of thanks to user "Ellyn," whose comment gave me the idea for today's post: If one wears two disposable diapers, both with waterproof backing, how does that increase absorbency? An excellent question, Ellyn! The short answer is that it doesn't, much. Taping one disposable diaper on over another is not a very efficient use of your [...]
In Praise of Pull Ups
When people compare the performance of diaper brands, it generally comes back to absorbency. For a lot of people, time between changes is the Holy Grail -- the less diapers you go through in a day the better, and that means getting the thickest, most absorbent ones you can. Since adjustable tapes also help a diaper last long, and since [...]
