UGH can't stop the night time leaking! HELP!
ds pees a LOT at night. i've tried everythuing but he still leaks every night lately.
he's normally a size 3 in his day time pamper cruisers.
at night he's now wearing: size 4 huggies over night diapers and then i put a size 5 luvs diaper on top of it to try to catch any leaking but he's soaked every morning.
i've tried diaper doubles but it makes it worse and i just went up a size in his night time diapers.
he gets nursed to sleep and then 1 time in the middle of the night but i can't stop those.
what can i do? help plz!

Do you change his diaper at the middle of the night feeding? If not, maybe that'll help? (while being very annoying, I know )

Re: UGH can't stop the night time leaking! HELP!
Maybe the diapers are just too big at night. Try the size 3 with a doubler and see what happens. Or just a Luvs by itself in his normal size. I have no problems with leaks from Luvs and DD pees a lot at night.

Re: UGH can't stop the night time leaking! HELP!
I have never tried this, but my mom said back in the day when this would happen, she would either cut the middle part of a diaper out and place it inside the one the baby was wearing to help absorb. OR she would place a small cloth in there...and supposedly it always worked!! I almost tried it b/c we were having a few nights of leaking with DS, but we switched from huggies to pampers at around 7 months and no more leaking. I guess pamper were a better fit for us, but I swore by huggies his first few months!

Do they make Size 3 overnights? I would say the snugger fitting, the better.

i used the size 3 over nights but they were leaking so i used the size 4 thinking it would hold more urine. i just don't know anymore.
i don't want to change him in the middle of the night b/c i'll NEVER get him back to sleep. (how bad of me is that. )

Maybe you could try the night time pull-ups... We have never had a problem with them. I have never liked Huggies.

I don't blame you for not wanting to change him in the middle of the night, DD would never go back to sleep either.
Are they the only brand of overnights because my sister had a problem like this and the overnights solved it, I assume it was Huggies.

Re: UGH can't stop the night time leaking! HELP!
OK, we recently had this problem, as well, only Ava is much bigger. I had the luxury of being able to cut out liquids an hour before bed and that solved the problem, but what I found that did work was taking two overnight diapers, placing one high up her belly, almost to her ribs, then the other one a little hig in the back and fastening those two together. it did the trick. So, this way she has two diapers on, but one is higher than the other. My mom told me to cut a slit in the diaper that is closest to her body so that the bottom diaper would absorb, as well, but I never needed to do that because it worked without it.
