i think you both need to look into getting a fitted nappy and bummis pull on cover for a night nap - its a quarter of the size of that!!!

I tried the fitted and it wasnt as good.
He has got 2 honeychild inserts and a booster. At the end of the night he is dry but the inserts are sopping wet!
Hopefully when he starts sleeping through he wont pee as much...I figure less goes in so less comes out?
Spencer looks gorgeous!

Yeah I tried a fitted too and he peed through it in 6 hours.
Mine is a mummies touch, with 2 HC inserts and 1 hemp insert.
Spencer has slept from 8pm till 6am the last 3 nights and his nappy has still been sopping in the morning, but at least it doesn't leak.
Tomas looks gorgeous too

Hate to say this but Daniel has started sleeping through just as I had got the perfect mixture of inserts to work without a hint of a leak.. and as soon as he started sleeping through it leaks again lol

That looks like a Josh night time bum. His his stuff with 2 peapod trifolds, 1 single layer hemp and 5 layers of microfibre and we haven't leaked with that yet overnight, I need to buy 1 more peapod insert so I have 4 so I don't have to stress about getting them dried in time for the next night.

Kryssi pees less at night when she sleeps through - it'll be the less feeding.

ok the babies look gorgeous, but why do you just not change his nappy during the night. I dont know why a 1 month old would need to not have a bum change during the night?!

Well Spencer is 4 months old (he's just ickle) and for the last 4 nights has been sleeping from 8pm till 6am. But before that I hadn't been changing his nappy since I read a thing from the sleep experts which said not to change them at night unless totally necessary as it wakes them up fully, and that it is best to feed them in as little light as poss and then pop them straight back to bed, at the same time I introduced dream feeding so he at least needed to go from 6.30pm till 3am ish.
I didn't read that till he was 3 months ish but if I had read it earlier I would have done it earlier, it made a big difference cos although I fed him in the dark he would still get woken up fully by his bum change, now his feeds and resettling (which hopefully he won't be needing again) takes 15mins instead of 30mins,

I was thinking don't you just want to eat that nappy? Reminds me of mint ice-cream!
We still change Kaleb at his dream feed so all up he's up for about 15mins and he's straight back to sleep. In his nappy last night we had an ecobubs trifold and a hemp trifold so 3layers m/fibre and 9hemp. It was so huge on him it was slightly gaping but we put a woollen soaker over the top and no leaks but a saturated nappy this morning! Am thinking about trying bamboo but have to wait til the online shop gets it back in stock so I can make some inserts

GandT, I was changing him every feed but he is starting to go longer and sometimes I think it is a wet nappy that is waking him rather than hunger. He definately seems better without the whole nappy change in the middle of the night.

I never changed Caitlin when she was still having a dream feed unless she was dirty (seems a million years ago! lol)
I'm shocked to see all that goes into some nappies!!! I thought I have a mega pee'r but her night nappies have never been more than 3 inserts (med/large)
