First, I cannot voice an opinion about these diapers directly to Safeway, the second is that when i first used these diapers, when they had the lady bugs on them, they were fine, mediocre, but worked, now they have this line of bugs across the top and absolutely suck, it is not worth it to me, to change my child now, with these diapers, twice as much, it just doesn't matter price if I am going through diapers this quick. I have purchased my last pack!

These diapers suck!!! I bought my first package last week and every diaper used leaked. Absorbent my ass. Do not waste your money!

I am so surprised I am seeing these answers on the Mom to Mom brand diapers at Safeway! We will now, only buy those diapers because they don't leak, at least not for us. I use to be one of those parents that will NEVER use a non name brand diaper and therefore only used Huggies or Pampers. Low on cash one day I bought these Mom to Mom's and all I can say is WOW. Every morning with the huggies or pampers, our son was soaked, yes there have been a few times with the mom to mom that he has been wet the next morning, but it is very few and far between. I would say to any of you wondering about them, give them a try and see how they work for you. Heck they are about $10 cheaper too!

I will only use these as well. We have rarely had leaks, except with the SUPREME diapers. Those leak for us all the time! I only use the plain white ones, regular, for my 2.5 year old. I love the price and I was a solid Pampers user before finding these and considered myself a diaper snob.

I just opened my first pack of Mom to Mom Supreme Diapers, and am so disappointed. The idea that a group of moms got together and created these and thought, "yea, these are SOFT, perfect for newborn babies," is ridiculous to me. They feel like cardboard, and have horrible material for the sensitive skin of a newborn's rear and thighs. DO NOT BUY THESE.

I haven't tried these products. But I think Safeway has forgotten that there are generally 2 parents who create and care for a child. Particularly now days. Dads are very involved in caring for their children. More and more single dads have taken on the roles of both father and mother, dads are staying home with the kids while mom works, etc. Why is it called Mom to Mom? Just another way men are subjected to the sidelines and have to fight for their right to parent their children. This isn't the 50s anymore. Parent to parent, regardless of sex.

If you are going to let a name subject you to the sidelines you are a very influential person. Its JUST A NAME, come on you are more powerful than that!

Wow....first off I love MOM TO MOM diapers. Maybe they have improved in the last year but if so then I am lucky. they are soft. A few months back they didn't seem so soft...but I just bought another package and they are super soft. Now about the name. In case any one was wondering....it was 2 MOMS that created the diapers. This is obviously why they gave it the name mom to mom. It shouldn't matter if they are lesbians, tree huggers, or just plain and simple MOMS who named the brand. For any of you to give up on a company because its name may not be politically correct to you then maybe you should go change the presidents home name to the black house. It's people like you who have caused so many issues in our country (freedoms) and let's face it...we are no longer FREE anymore because by GOD someone says or does or names something that you FREAKS don't like or approve of. GET A LIFE AND ENJOY YOUR KIDS AND STOP BITCHING ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!

Safeway didn't create the name to shut dad's out. It is the brand like "huggies" or "pampers" that someone created and that is the name they picked.

Um yah, I think the person above realizes that is name...thats the whole point of what they were trying to say. I dont get so worked up over these issues anymore but I do agree. The media still reflects an unrealistic view of families and women in general. It *isnt* just mom's doing the diapering and arent we all (our children) better off for it?

About the diapers themselves, I love them. They have an unbelievable price for a diaper that has stretchy sides. (a feature not usually found on bargin diapers) But what I like best of all is these diapers dont serve as advertisement for some show with charecters all over them. Now that I am a parent I just cant believe how hard it can be finding some things that dont have merchandising tie-ins. it seems every boy at our montasouri pre-school carries a spider-man or "cars" lunch box. And these kids are under THREE! Scary. (oh, gee, it turns out I *do* get worked up over some issues)

As a San Francisco native, i see the name as a way of attracking tree hugging, lesbian mothers!
Coming Soon! "daddy to daddy"
the hypo-allergenic soothing rash ointment!

The first time i bought a pack of these diapers the right tab pulled off at least 10 of the diapers. i returned them back to safeway and got my money back. I figured id give them a second chance, maybe it was a fluke, but AGAIN the tabs came off the right side of the diaper. I personally think these diapers are crap! there is no number to call or lodge a complaint or give suggestions.

I was so happy to see a diaper that wasn't soooo expensive, but I thought I should research any reviews before I made my first purchase. I am now kicking myself for buying them anyway! I didn't have a problem with the tabs, I loved that they don't have the usual cartoon characters on them, but I HATE how they leaked, and the fact that myh baby has had a rash since I started the mom-to-mom diapers! Like the first comment, I am using 3 times the diapers because my baby is on the change table every half hour! We tried the "everyday diaper" maybe the "supreme diapers" are better for leaks, but I doubt that they are better for rashes. I'm going back to my beloved Pampers!!

I have been using this brand for the past month and they work great. They really absorb the wetness and poo and are
a great bargain, I recommend this product to everyone.

Well Igave these a try and they suck bigtime. Our son just leaked through his diaper(#2) for the first time. From now on no being cheap, there is something legitimate about brands, and it seems whenever i try to be cheap it just slaps me back in the face. These diapers suck!

Just a tip for the diapers I have found: go a size lower than you usually would for Pampers or Huggies. The stretchy sides cause leakage when your baby's stomach goes up and down while they sleep. Also, I use Pampers at night to avoid leaks (Baby Dry) and the Mom to Moms during the day. The diapers last twice or three times as long that way. Also, change your child every 1.5 to 2 hours whether or not they need it urgently; this will avoid leaks. Thanks!

Are these made by a company who makes other generic diapers too? Just wondering. The old Safeway diapers were made from Tyco, who also made most other store brand diapers. Tyco I'm pretty sure is also the popular "White Cloud" maker too, as well as Raley's old brand, Longs, Taret...etc etc...Just wondering if this was the same diapers w/ a new fancy name as a marketing tech. from store to store so moms didn't feel they were buying "generic" rather then a store brand that wasn't in other stores? But still, it is what it is, and sometimes I find spending a little extra actually saves you money in the end, as you aren't going through more diapers faster, let alone extra laundry if it leaks on clothing and sheets! HOWEVER will say that I have tried the bubble bath and diaper wipes, and those both were satisfactory..again not as good as Huggies per say, but good for the price indeed!

I like these diapers. It is very absorbent and we never encountered leaks. The quality is great for a price that's very affordable. I am recommending it to all moms out there.

DON'T waste your Hard Earned Money on these.
I have been low on funds this Year, and have been buying Luvs, not the best, but they work for us. I was at Vons having to buy some emergency diapers, would have gone to target or walmart if I could, but since I was there, Mom to Mom were on sale, &8.99 for a pack of the pull ups, I thought since they will start pre-school tomorrow, I will buy these since they are so much cheaper than the others.
I had my son in them for 2 hours while he slept. I have not had to change his diapers at night in a long long time. He woke up and came to me, I sat him on my leg, his diaper was not soaked, but he was leaked through. I tore them off and put the last luvs diaper on him.
This is so not worth the saved 4 dollars.
I wonder if I can take them back?

With my first son I always used WalMart's Whitecloud diapers. My second son, now 14 months old, has many allergies & sensitivities so we've tried a LOT of different formulas, lotions, ointments, detergents, body wash, food & diapers. Luvs worked the worst for us. They leaked & the filling would fall out in clumps. Pampers fit well but leaked occasionally & were over priced. WalMart no longer carries Whitecloud & has replaced them with Parent's choice. They were just crap. Huggies were just fine but have continually gone up in price (now $25 for the large box). Mom to Mom not only fit well & never leak but they are on average $14 for the big box! We love them! Only problem is we're moving to the midwest soon & I don't know if we will find this brand there.

omg! I am in love with mom to mom Sensitive wipes...they are so soft unlike huggies and parents choice and i used mom to mom diapers all the time but now that she is a size 5 they are starting to leak a little.. but other than that i have a good experience

These diapers are really cheap. I bought them last night trying to save money cause already had HUGGIES at home and use three of them and my baby skin is bright red and the skin pelled off where he scratch it. It was gross and very painful for my child i wouldnt reccommend getting these if your baby has sensitive skin.

Thanks for the warning! I am preparing for the diapers war and now that I read all your replies I realize that's not as simple as I thought it would be. I think I'll just go for disposable diapers and use an easy saver diaper pail. Is there anything else I should know? What's your experience with that?

I am really in a state of shock at the negative comments about Mom to Mom diapers. I just stumbled onto this page while looking for their website. I've been using Mom to Mom diapers and wipes for about a year for my son, who is 2. I wish this line had been around for my oldest, because they have all of the essentials for a fraction of the cost - from pedialyte to pediasure to bottle liners. You name it, they have it. In the beginning, we used Pampers for my son...regular Huggies leaked for him. When I found Mom to Mom, I was in absolute heaven. The supreme ones are so absorbent and the only time that we have had a leak is if he was on milk overload at bedtime and basically had a lot of pee and no diaper change until morning. Usually, we use Huggies Overnites for nighttime. Mom to Mom supreme are so awesome that I use less diapers and they are much cheaper than other brands. I panic when my store is out of them and they were recently out for a week. I had to go back to Pampers during that time and we flew through that package. It was unbelievable how many more diapers he used. I love Mom to Mom, they are the best and so cheap at $14.99 for the large box, which for our size (6) is 56 diapers. The wipes are great, too, but to be honest, I have found that the Target brand wipes are very similar and a little cheaper. Besides the feel of the wipes, individual packaging with a lid is a must for us!

Additionally, I wanted to mention to the Anonymouslady - if your child has sensitive skin, you should be cautious about switching brands anyway. Your baby didn't have a reaction because you chose Mom to Mom brand, your baby had a reaction because you changed to something other than what his skin was used to. That can happen with diapers, wipes, creams, and even laundry soap.

I had the wipes sent to me in a care package while I was on deployment. Now that I am back in the states I can't figure out where I can buy them at for myself. I fell in love with them, and with me planning a child, I really don't want to use another product when there is one out there that I like. Thanks!

I came across this while searching for the MomtoMom website. We're using the diapers for a short period while he's in disposables (we normally use cloth) due to an antibiotic rash. At any rate, I think they work just fine. I used to use the safeway brand with my older two who used dispoables regularly.

What I want to say is this---it really shocks me that folks are disappointed b/c this diaper only holds half of what some other brand will hold...that their child can last twice to three times as long in another brand. SERIOUSLY!?! You're mad b/c you can't let your child sit in their pee for as long?? WOW. I think you ought to be left to sit in your pee and see how comfortable you are. That's some crap right there.

As far as the diapers go, I think they're great.

These diapers are GREAT!!! We have used Pampers, Huggies and Luvs on my daughter and these work out the best. She has sensitive skin and these diapers aren't irritating to her skin. She stays dry all night long and has NEVER had a leak in them. I was cautious on trying them until I talked to another mom in the grocery store who had just but a box of them in her cart. She told me that they worked the best for her son and saved her money. I tried them and is now sold on them. I will not buy another brand of diaper. The wipes are ok, I prefer Huggies Natural Care ones. The Mom to Mom Diaper Rash Ointment with Vitamin A and D works great when needed and it's cheaper than the other stuff. It works better than the Butt Paste brand. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any parent. Just give them a try - buy a small package to check them out.

I got a package of these given to me and I will never waste my own money on them. My son woke up every morning SOAKED. His sleeper was drenched as well as the blanket that he was swaddled in. I had to change his diaper every hour because if I waited even an extra half an hour I would not only have to change his diaper but his sleeper/outfit. The next time I got paid I went out and bought my package of Pampers and now he can spend more then an hour in his diaper and isn't soaked in the morning. And I agree with the other person that said they felt like cardboard - they are rougher than the other brands I have tried. And I am not just a name brand person, we have used the wal-mart brand of diapers and the superstore brands as well and these mom-to-mom I have found to be the worst.

i took the time to read all comments and what i have to say is..i have a two year old song that pees like crazy in his diapers at night,i have tried all brands of diapers i can not stand pampers,luvs,parents choice ...i find that they do not have soft material and the luvs are crap like the worst i use to swear by them in 2003 but i think they make them differently now because they are horrible and thin ..i love momtomom diapers they fit just right and do not leak also found that fred meyers has a great diaper too..to each his own though

I cant believe some of the comments on here. Wow people really its a brand name who gives a sh@t what they are called as long as they work. My husband is a stay at home dad and he isn't offended at all by the name. He does get mad at me if I buy any other brand. I had problems with Huggies leaking and pampers gave my daughter a horrible rash. I love these diapers they don't leak she can move around without them riding up and they soak the moisture away from her instead of letting it sit on her skin. I think that Pampers and Huggies are over priced low quality diapers. Mom to mom is amazing and not just diapers everything they make is as good if not better than the competition. Its refreshing to see a company make high quality goods at a reasonable price.
