Has Rascal+Friends recently expanded their size 7? I recall giving them a go initially, and they were identical in size to a 6. Huggies did update the size 7 diapers in the past year to improve their fit, making them wider. While the size 8 might be similar to the early 2000s versions, the current size 7 already offers a wider fit comparable to those. If Huggies were to make the size 8 taller like their 2011-2012 versions of their size 6's and even wider than the old size 6 diapers from the 2000s, that would be a game changer.
The ones I have are dated 6/2/23. The measurements are the same for the length and the width in the front. Initial thoughts were that they were longer but after getting them stretched flat properly I see they are the same. The width in the back is 1/2 inch wider. Spacing between the leg elastics and leak guards increased by 1/8 inch as well as the width of the padding. Nothing to write home about but the only brand that has actually made the padding and spacing between leg elastics wider. I can't speak to Huggies 7 but I can say the size 4 and 6 are exactly the same width across the middle. Unfortunately I can say the same for R+F. You would think there would be at least 3/4 of an inch difference in width between the 4 and 6 but nope. Makes me wonder how well these bigger sized diapers actually perform on the bigger kids.

I'm thinking about giving R+F another shot. All I needed is for them to be a little wider, and then they'll fit me perfectly. I wear huggies all the time, but sometimes when I wet them too much, the liquid ends up leaking through the diaper padding.

So I got my box of 34 Little Movers size 8s today.

Not in a position to post pictures, but by way of a nonscientific side by side stretch test, they seem mostly similar to the size 7s save for an extra half inch (1.3 cm) or so of rise through the crotch. I reckon that should give folks who can already wear the size 7s a little extra breathing room downstairs. I am very interested to see actual dimension comparisons when I have time (or if someone beats me to it).

As kind of expected, these aren't a crazy jump forward in size, but it sure is fun to see a big 8 number on a Huggies. And the updated Lion King print is cute.

Will certainly be interested to see everyone’s thoughts coming from the uk!

I just got the size 8s, and the 5t-6t nighttime pull ups. Will do a size comparison if I get a chance. The pull ups released at the same time when the size 8s came out.

apparently the size 8 snug and drys have been delayed until June, but there is new packaging. I wonder if we’re going to get new designs

Since I fit the Pull-Ups and Goodnites, do you think I can fit the Huggies?
