I have used pampers with my oldest son from 2007 until currently with my youngest son May 2010. Over the past two weeks my son has grown a horrible rash to the point were the skin is cracking and bleeding. I have taken several pictures as the rash has gotten worse. I have just bought 2 boxes of size 3 Pampers Cruiser’s Dry Max Diapers and I am going to have alot of diapers to throw in the garbage. I love Pampers and always have but after reading all of these reviews I am going to switch. Normally you think a rash might be caused by what your child has eaten or if you leave the diaper on to long, but this type of rash is totally different. Usually the rash clears up after a few applications of diaper rash cream, Aquaphor creams is my favorite, but this rash clearly has just gotten worse. Tonight I am going to buy some Huggies and see how that turns out.

MY little sister has been married for 10 years and last year she bore their FIRST little baby!!!!! They are the best and most cautious parents. That little girl is the only reason for me too keep living> she got a rash bumps on her legs her privates and had NEVER even had a diaper rash not ONE she got a YEAST INFECTION and on her first birthday MAY 24 she was still in pain what to do aunt in distress

Have 2 girls one 8 years old and an 19 month old baby. Notice 2 or 3 very, very small areas where the skin was open and bleeding. While evaluating what was so different about our routine realized we were using the new brand of Pamper diapers : ( I am keeping my eye in the area of irritation/bleed. If it doesnt’ get better with medicine I will then change diapers and see if that mitigates complitely. Will post back the outcome!

My daughter started using Pampers Dry Max diapers for the first time in mid-April. Within 3 – 5 days, on a Sunday, she had redness and an open sore (raw skin without a top layer). Her doctor (the physician on-call) treated her with a Rx cream. As the week continued, she developed greater redness and approx. 20 more open sores/ raw skin areas in all areas of her diaper except the high back. She was prescribed Silvadine (a burn cream) and a different anti-fungal cream. She was in such severe pain that she was shaking with rigors and crying hysterically whenever her diaper had to be changed or she had to be cleaned on her bottom. She is normally a very happy baby even when ill and this was horrible. As the next week came about she seemed to not get a lot worse with the sores, however, they weren’t getting better and she developed such severe redness and swelling in her genitals that they truly were hot, and like a tomato. We have photo evidence. Our doctor at this point said to continue the treatment above, but also use a mixture of Maalox and Aquaphor or A&D to combat the burning in between Rx creams. He recommended as much diaper free time as possible and to potentially switch diapers. Once we switched diapers and had her consistently out of diapers for a few days, she started to get better. When consulting with our doctor about our experience, he felt the diapers were at fault and that this was not a coincidence. As a long time Proctor and Gamble Shareholder, I am so displeased at how this company is not seeming to take responsibility for the apparent large number of people who are having similar troubles. I feel that if you have a product that is un-safe, EVEN FOR A PORTION OF THE POPULATION THAT USES IT, one should own up to it and place warnings on the product or re-call the product. As in the Toyota case that has come to light recently, monetary gains should not the the sole consideration in product development, marketing, and sales. I have never thought of myself as someone who would embark in a lawsuit, however, when Proctor and Gamble told my mother in law (who file the initial complaint after watching that others had had similar problems) that this diaper was tested on over 20,000 children and babies around the world and it was perfectly safe, all I could think about was my baby shaking and crying hysterically and having such a severe burn on her diaper area that at times I wondered if she would be permanently scarred. This shouldn’t even be a possibility to happen to other babies and families.

My daughter has also used pampers since birth in 07 and never had a problem, never even had a diaper rash before. Then in november she experienced a painful, blistery rash that would not go away even with perscribed meds from the doctor. She would be in so much pain that she couldn’t even sit. When I would change her diapers she would cry so hard if I even slightly touched the area. I switched diaper brands and miraculously this horrible blistery rash cleared very quickly. Very sad my daughter had to experience this and know that it was nothing I could have prevented.

My daughter, after using new Pamper’s Cruisers Dry Max diapers for approx 2-3 weeks suffered a sever rash/chemical burn from these diapers. She has seen a doctor two times, and still has the rash. Her doctor specifically asked us what diapers we were using, and if they were the new Pampers. Two different rounds of medication has not clearned up this rash. I have used Pamper’s on my daughter since birth, and there was no issue with rashes, burns, or blisters until they introduced the new diapers with Dry Max technology. I have filed complaints with Pampers/Proctor & Gamble and am considering hiring a lawyer.

My daughter broke out in terrble rash she has blisters and what looks like a chemical burn. She has been in soo much pain switched to another brand the rash is startng to go away it will take awhile due to the severity of her rash. I have used pampers for 7 years never had a problem until this dry max. My complaint has nothing about not liking the improved diaper I didn’t even notice diiference until she broke out. Very disappointed on how P&G handling this.

Prior to reading this information yesterday morning, over the weekend, I had noticed a large round red spot by my son’s genitals. I thought it looked odd and not like a usual rash. I pulled the dry max diapers from my daycare this morning and replaced them with our standard favorite, Pampers Baby Dry. I tried the dry max but honestly am now waiting on Pampers to recall them and do right by all parents who know their children’s skin and when something is amiss. Prior to our purchase of these new diapers, I wondered why Pampers would need to promote a diaper that a baby/toddler could wear for 5 hours or longer (unless overnight), frequent changes do help to prevent rashes. But anything that would keep my son dryer, was worth a try. But not at the expense of his comfort and the potential for short or long term effects in his private region.

My daughter will be one next week and from the time she was born, she’s been in Pampers and has never had any problems. However, the last box of diapers we purchased were the Pampers Dry Max and she experienced the most severe rash – the perfect outline of the diaper (u-shaped) from front to back. I have no doubt that it is caused by these diapers. The rash is not a common diaper rash, it is a burn and she’s in extreme pain. Her pediatrician recommended we lather her in hydrocortisone and Desitin (not the creamy but the thick) and let her go without a diaper for as long as possible. Even though it was a little messy, it did decrease some of the redness and hopefully she’s on the road to recovery and will not scar. Oh and we definitely switched to Huggies

Since my sons birth 10/28/2009 i’ve used pamper products on my son and had NO problems untill recently when they introduced the new dry max. I started using dry max and quickly noticed that it irradiated my sons penis so bad, i pulled back the fore skin and noticed it was burned all the way around the tip. i believe its from the diapers because i never had this problem before.

I can’t belive something like this can happen after all the testing that these companies do before releasing a new product. My 26 month old had a horrible rash with blisters and severe bleeding. I had just assumed he had eaten something but that wasn’t the case. How sad that we parents trust the diaper companies with our children’s bums!

Please don’t use these DryWeave pampers!!! I have always been an avid user of Pampers because they form fit so well. I tried the Cruisers with Dry Weave and my daughter is so blistered skin was breaking. I saw a pregnant couple at a store with a box of Pampers and told them my daughters situation and they immediately put them back. I am shocked that Pampers is not taking responsibility for this. I will never use them again.

My daughter had a bad reaction to pamper cruisers. At first we thought it was a yeast infection due to her being ill. The rash never went away. The doctor even thought it was a yeast infection. I searched online for anyone having the same problems. I found a website that had mother’s commenting on their child having a bad reaction to papmer cruisers. All the mother’s on tha website had used the swaddlers when he child was first born and then switched to the cruiser. When the switch from the swaddler to the cruiser was made, that is when everyone started to notice the rash. After I changed to a diffferent diaper, my child insistenly showed improvemet. I judt feel bad because my child went about 6 months before I figured out the diapers were causing the problem. She really was uncomfortable. I will never use pamper diapers again

I have used Pampers for 8 years. I purchased these diapers over a month ago and did not have any problems. After the last box I bought, my daughter developed a severe rash which looked like chemical burns all over her rear end, back and legs. My “easy” baby was fussy and screamed whenever her diapers was changed. We have switched diapers and her rash has cleared. I hope the product is recalled. As for clearing the rash, my doctor gave us a diaper rash cream recipe to make at home that cleared up the rash in about a week.

My daughter had a horrible reaction to Pamper cruisers. She had been sick and on antibotics and I though it was a yeast infection and the doctor did too. It never cleared up. I got online and started asking asking questions to see if anyone else had this problem. Sure enough, someone was having the same problem. It all started when you change from the swaddler to the cruisers . I switched diapers and insisently she got relief. I am very disappointed in pamopers

We bough the new Pampers Cruisers a few months back and after wearing 2 diapers, it was obvious he was having some type of allergic reaction. He had a terrible diaper rash where the diaper rests between his legs. I returned the boxes I bought at Babies R Us and just assumed it was him having sensitive skin. Now that all of this has come out, I realize it was probably this and not just him. This is so scary and sad.

well im a momof one he has been wearing these pamper since birth , i d know this something has changed in them i amconstatly buying diaper rash cream and that dont even work something has to be done.i will discontinue the diapers if noting id done

My 18 month old has a rash currently and has had it for two to two and half weeks. I have a doctors appointment for him May 17, 2010 due to this rash, because the prescribed medication he is on aren’t even working. He was on an anti fungal and also a steroid medication used for his sensitive skin. I haven’t been able to get rid of this rash with either of these. I have also used petroleum jelly and baby powder and those aren’t working either…what is wrong with my son? I heard about this story and wanted to inform others that it is possible that P & G is turning out diapers that should be pulled off the shelves.

My daughter is 8 months old and has always used pampers. As soon as we got the new diapers she got a rash that blistered, even started to bleed at times and would cry and scream in pain every time she would go to the bathroom. I changed diapers and used a cream the doctor gave me for the rash and it went away. I have no dout that the diapers caused her rash.

My child broke had a severe red area that looked like a burn with the skin sloughing off. The area then spread to the rest of her buttocks and genital area.

My son developed a first degree burn with terrible blisters from these diapers!!!

My son has also gotten some kind of rash from these diapers. It looks like a burn or something more than a true diaper rash.

My baby was born 12-25-09. He wore pampers swaddlers(newborn) no problem. I few months later. We started the pampers swaddlers with dry max. #2&#3. no he has the bigggest rash/burn on his inner thighs. Under his testicles that looks horrible. It looks as if it’s going to blister up. So I tried everything nothing worked. Then soneone said dry max has babies breaking out bad. I said to my babys father a few days before that I wondered if those new diapers may be the problem. I figured there so new. I switched to huggies. Now the problems going away. I have pictures also. There so terrible I felt my babies pain. I really would like them to do test on the dry max. I also notice there is in fact a really strong Chemical like oder when u open a new box of those diapers.

I had just bought I big box of the cruisers drymax and they have turned my baby so raw..It looks like she has been burnt,she cries so hard when I go to wipe or put cream on it.I didnt want to believe its from her diaper I have been using pampers for 9 yrs on all my kids.Why would they go and change them all now.I still dont want to believe but I guess it is true. I hope they get it fixed.I will never buy pampers again

I have 2 kiddos in diapers who are VERY sensitive to various diapers and I have NO problems with the new dry max and have been using them for nearly 2 months

Both my children have experienced very bad rashes, blisters, red swollen open blisters that began bleeding. My children would scream in pain when I would change there diapers and would not liked to be held on my hip due to the pain. I have always loved pampers until all this starting happening……..
