My wee girl is nearly 5 months old and we have been using prefolds and covers during the day and a sposie at night. She is on a bottle and consumes a lot of milk in the last few hours before bed. I have found that the sposie is leaking by the time she gets up in the morning. Does anybody have any suggestions for a night nappy that may last the distance better than a sposie for such a heavy wetter. Prefolds last at least 4 hours during the day so no issue there really. I have an ecobubs merino nappy which seems to fit. She is quite a long lean bubba with only slightly chubby thighs! I thought maybe a polarfleece cover over a sposie could be my next move?!

Oh you have to try a Designer Bums hemp fitted (with bamboo booster) and merino cover. I think it's the best night combo ever and the best for heavy wetters! My son could outwee anything until we tried this combo. We NEVER had a leak. Well worth the investment

you can still use the prefolds and covers overnight... you can add an extra prefold or other booster in there...

My Sophia is long and lean like yours and Iwas going through the exact same situation as you two mths ago.
I use ecobubs wool pockets with two honeychild inserts or with and ecobub medium insert with a bamboo insert between the fold.
I hope this helps.
90% of the time she does not wet through but sometimes she is beginning to. The nap goes on her at 7pm and comes off around 8am.
