No Pampers Recall Yet, Besides Dry Max Diapers Under Scrutiny

Proctor and Gamble is reeling during today’s stock market crash, and spirits will sag further yet if there is a Pampers recall. Parents do not care quite as much about whether somebody on Wall Street made a typo when recording a big Proctor and Gamble trade (sending investors scrambling for cheap payday loans) as they do about whether Pampers Dry Max diapers are causing their kid to get diaper rash.

In the works is pampers recall

Proctor and Gamble's Pampers Dry Max Diapers are, by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, under investigation. There are complaints that the diapers are causing rashes as well as chemical burns around children's pelvic areas.

Consumers who are, nevertheless, concerned about the safety of Dry Max diapers are urged to contact the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission toll-free at (800) 638-2772.

A mom and her Papers woe tale

Caroline of Spartanburg, South Carolina, is one of a long list of moms who have had recent issues with Pampers diapers. She used Pampers for a couple years until her 22 month old and 5 month old started to show heavy rashes. Caroline was fed up after going through numerous creams and near total personality transformations with her kids (paid does that to a person). Once the rashes had taken a turn for the worse and became what she describes as “huge, scabby blisters,” she found that many other parents had complaints about Pampers diapers. Carolina returned to her Sam's Club and got a different brand of diaper. Many parents took comparable precautions as outlined by the Consumer Affairs site, which leads to speculation as to whether there are scores more parents whose kids are suffering under what could very very easily warrant a Pampers recall.
