Everything you need to know about Huggies Newborn Nappies

Welcoming a new little one into the world will always be a journey-defining thing. Whether itโ€™s your first rodeo or youโ€™re a seasoned parent, you are navigating through life together for the first time earthside.


You will be wading through the early weeks of sleep deprivation and hurtling through milestones like thereโ€™s no tomorrow. Thereโ€™s no denying that a lot is going on, and the comfort levels of your babyโ€™s nappy should be the last thing to busy your brain.ย 

The Huggies Newborn nappies take care of your babyโ€™s skin and comfort so that they can grow, make connections, and get all the sleep they need (what a relief!).

About Huggies


Huggies have been a staple in the homes of Aussie families for decades now, after reaching our shores in the 1960s. Since then, theyโ€™ve been offering nappies that, just like their name, feel like a hug. Comfort and protection are top of the Huggies agenda, and it shows in their super soft, ultra-dry nappy icons.


Huggies Newborn Nappies: Product benefits


Protects newborn skin

Newborn skin is particularly delicate and more susceptible to the range of irritants and bacteria that hang around our little ones. Being in frequent contact with irritants like wee and poop can put your newbornโ€™s delicate skin at risk.ย 

Thatโ€™s why these nappies from Huggies have been designed with a clinically proven* Zinc-enriched layer. Zinc oxide is found in most nappy creams, due to its ability to act as a barrier that helps protect against irritants. It protects your babyโ€™s delicate skin against irritation as they wear it, giving some much-needed care.ย 

Keeps your baby dryย 

Fact: a dry baby is a happy baby.ย 

The Huggies Newborn nappies feature a patented DRYTOUCHยฎ layer that soaks up all the messes (of which there are plenty) with its high absorbency. This keeps irritants away from their skin and frees up your babyโ€™s body to move and explore comfortably.ย 

Overnight leakage protection also locks away midnight messes with up to 12 hours of leakage protection. Itโ€™s made with soft side shields to help prevent leaks, without stirring your little one from a cosy sleep.ย 

Made to be gentleย 

Every element of the Newborn nappies is made to sit gently against the skin, ensuring to never compromise comfort for protection. An ultra-soft outer cover treats newborn skin kindly as they start to wriggle and move around the world, whilst BREATHE DRYยฎ technology lets air circulate around your babyโ€™s skin to help keep it fresh and cool.


Huggies Newborn Nappies: Specs and features


Letโ€™s get into the nitty-gritty details. The Huggies nappies feature:ย 

  • Zinc enriched layer: clinically proven* to help protect against irritation & maintain healthy skin PH.
  • Dry touch layer: with a patented DRYTOUCHยฎ layer, it quickly absorbs runny poos leaving babyโ€™s skin cleaner and drier.
  • Skin-loving softness: from its ultra-soft outer cover to its soft & stretchy waistband, their softest nappy ensures a comfortable and secure fit.
  • Breathability: BREATHE DRYยฎ technology allows air to circulate around babyโ€™s skin and is clinically proven to help prevent nappy rash.
  • Wetness indicator: changes colour when wet.
  • Overnight leakage protection: up to 12 hours of leakage protection and silk-soft side shields to help prevent leaks.
  • Wide pocket waistband: ultra-soft waistband gently moulds to babyโ€™s back to help stop and lock away runny poo.

In conclusion: Why we love it


Your newborn baby is taking in a lot. Theyโ€™ve entered this outside world (which is far less warm and cosy than the womb), and are learning and growing more every single day. Their nappy should support them through all these changes, not hold them back. The Huggies Newborn nappies cover your babyโ€™s comfort so that you and your newborn can focus on the good stuff.

*Contains zinc as zinc oxide. This claim is based on a clinical study conducted at an independent laboratory, using adult skin as a suitable substitute for baby skin. Results showed significantly less irritation when using liner with Huggiesยฎ Zinc Enriched layer vs control.ย
