cloth nappies at night?

Hi ladies, another question about cloth nappies. I have decided to go old school (although not too old, the modern versions!) with cloth nappies. Everone keeps saying to use diposables at night. I didn't really want to use disposables at all (although I could well change my mind!)so does anyone else have any experience with using cloth nappies at night or something to put in the way too hard basket?!

i use cloth at night... at the mo my fav for my little boy is a fitted with a wool cover. i think the thing about using cloth at night is to make sure it is absorbent enough. i have successfully used rosies fleece pockets overnight, fuzzis with a microfibre insert and a flat, rosies fitteds with BKT booster, snazzipants fitted with a snazzi booster. so you can prob adapt your daytime nappy for night time too.

Nope not impossible but you may have to change sheets at night time more than you would using disposables. Think about it, they used to do it before disposables were a common thing so it must be possible.

I'll be using cloth and I know plenty of people who do so and thier bubs stay dry at night. It's just a case of finding the right combo.

Which system do you use?

If you're using pockets a lot of girls I know use either 2 inserts or an insert, doubler and hemp. (and many combinations there of!)

There are so many systems out there now!! We've chosen to with Fuzzi Bunz, same sort of system though being pocket nappies.

Heard raving reviews about Joely Pockets today. (From a woman who uses a mix of fuzzis and wonderoos also)

Anyway, what I really was meant to say was that my daughter was in modern cloth at night for quite a while with no probs! (So definitely not impossible)

I have recently gone back to using disposables at night because she started wetting a lot more and the bed and pyjamas would end up soaked. So instead of investigating more cloth options I got lazy and just went for disposables again. Don't take a lesson from me though! Ideally I'd be investigating more nappy options but finances and motivation are lacking

I use Fuzzi Bunz overnight and the only times I've ever had to change a wet bed was in disposables... Modern cloth is MUCH more effective overnight than "old-fashioned" flats with covers.

thats what i use with gabriel overnight, a FB insert and a flat, it always looked trim to me ... i know lots of people have suggested hemp for overnights, but to me that means buying something else again... my husband already complains i have too much ...

Don't worry, while we're wanting to use cloth nappies only there are several packs of disposables on hand and I will probably use them for the first week or so while I get my head around being a new mum! You won't be alone in sposie user hell! *lol*

the only reason i dont have any disposables in my house is cause i am too tight to pay for cloth and sposies...
