 Topic: Very wet nappies!
Posted: 04 December 2006 at 10:20am |
Hi all - HELP ! I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but my little man on the odd occasion (but more frequent of late) fulls his nappy during his night sleep to the stage where it's soaked right through and ends up soaking his pjs and his bed and this of course wakes him up and he then has to jum pin bed with us - poor wee possum, i've put him in bigger nappies to see if that would work - but NO !
Arrrggghhh

Ella did the same thing for a while.
Fluffies or plastic pants over the nappy were a godsend for containing the flood.

Are you using cloth or disposable?
If your using sposies then a nappy cover would probably be a good idea.

Or try out a cloth option for bedtime... I've heard of people having success with that because of being able to customise the absorbancy.
Apparently bamboo is awesome.

Tried changing nappy brands?
I was going to say "toilet him before bed" oops lol he's only 11mos 
I'd just be careful about coming into your bed becoming a habit. Cuddles and stuff but at least get him back to bed before morning if you can.

we went through a lot ofdifferne nappy types before getting ones that suited my now 2 year old. the best ones for him at night were a brand called Cosies. we got them online.

i think. We use cloth for both our boys at night and have found those brilliant for keeping both boys dry. we use two pad things rather than one and it seems to keep them dry.

My sister used to put two disposables on her boy.
Put the first one on then cut a little split in the outer layer of it, then put another nappy over the top, when the first one is full, it will just soak through into the second one. Works great.

I've heard bamboo is great with cloth nappies...tempted to give it a go once I'm over my last cloth spending spree!! 
If you use cloth hemp is also really great...we have hemp boosters in Maddie's pocket nappies and we've never had any leaks....and she can be quite a heavy wetter!
