I feel like this article was an extended ad for Huggies. Particularly with the happy ending being "Tonight, she was bringing home Huggies".

- nielsbot 9y agoadvertorial? I mean, it happens all the time, right? e.g. https://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/13/weekinreview/13goodman.html https://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/13/weekinreview/13goodman.ht... (although that article is from 7 years ago...) Sorry, I read more articles about this recently... blogs doing paid mentioning/sponsorships and not disclosing it.
- nielsbot 9y agoI meant to say, read more articles about this more recently, but don't remember where and a very quick Google search didn't return anything that seemed familiar..
- LitFan 9y agoYou're absolutely right. There was only one mention of cloth diapers anywhere in here, and it was quickly dismissed by "they are difficult to clean without a machine". Nothing about how cost effective they can be, and then we go right back to learning about how huggies are better than generics.
