Peeing through nappies!?

Advice please!
My 2 year old pee's through her nappy most nights.
She gets changed before bed and then goes up with a sippy cup but it doesn't have much in at all and there's always some left in the morning. She gets tucked in and self settles so she's not given any amount to drink before going into her bed.
She's very good at night, if she ever wakes up she just settles herself back down sooner or later (I have a video monitor in my room so I keep an eye on her of course) but the past couple of nights she's woke up crying which is very unlike her, but I can't really go in cus she thinks she's getting up and then gets even more upset when I put her back down! I'm wondering if it's because of her nappies, it's only just started, can anyone recommend a nappy that will last the night? Or do I start changing her at night again and hoping shes not too stressed! We've not long started potty training so she's a long way off not needing nappies at bed time, we use Aldi Mamia x

What size nappies is she in and can you go up a size? A bigger size will hold more wee.

2.10 year old here in pampers pants overnight and no issues. However you could always put a bigger size nappy over the top?

If there's a risk of nappy leaking I'd put a spare fitted sheet on the mattress with a waterproof pad on top, and then another fitted sheet on top. If it does leak it's easy to remove the sheet and waterproof pad and she can get straight back into a dry bed

Try pampers baby dry and go up a size. Aldi great for daytime, just don't cut it at night.

My almost 2 year old DD is the same. She doesn't wake in the night but almost always is very wet through her pyjamas in the morning. Have tried going up a size but hasn't seemed to make a difference. I see it as a good thing that she's clearly drinking a lot during the day?!

I would use Aldi in the day and Pampers at Night. Keeping my supermarket brand in the day and switching to Pampers at night had my DC2 sleeping through as they are more absorbent.

Sorry forgot to say, she's already on the higher size, I had considered a different brand for nighty time.. pampers for bed then? The issue isn't the sheets, it's just not very nice for her to be in wet clothes 😞 poor baby
