Nappies for bed x

Can anyone recommend a good brand of nappy for bed? Most mornings my son 19 months is soaking wet round the middle, he has a bottle about 40 minutes before bed.

I use pampers baby dry. I would give the drink a bit earlier to make sure the nappy isn't wet from the beginning of the night Grin

Maybe he needs to go up a size? Either that or make sure his willy is pointing down Grin

Second Pampers Baby Dry, they have never leak despite being round DD ankles when she wakes up :-)

Always used Tesco own right up to five yr old dd in size six. Never had a leak.

I'm a recent convert to Huggies, they seem to be more secure around the waist as DD kept waking up with a wet back where the wee seemed to have leaked over the top during the night with Pampers. I also put a pair of pants over them to keep them secure when she is busy breakdancing or whatever the hell else she does during the night to make her end up the wrong way round up the other end of the cot.

we had this with DD. She drinks like a fish! We had to change her nappy when we went to bed at 11ish. Fortunately she's a really heavy sleeper & often didn't wake or only half woke. Still occasionally had leaks though

Pampers baby dry again, my DD drinks a lot, milk before bed and then water during the night. I still have to change her some nights at around 4 in the morning, but only when is too hot and she drinks more water. This are the only ones we have tried that keep her dry, the others leak.

I tried the new tesco loves baby easy fit pants in sizes 5 & 6 and they are super absorbent! Cheapish too compared to pampers and very similar! Really are worth trying

Another vote for pampers baby dry! My son is a lot younger than yours (5m) but he must pee for Britain overnight as by 6am his nappy is humongous!! But no leaks.

like what previous poster said: willy down, frills out, & make sure it's meeting well at the sides (though i'm sure you well know how to do a nappy at this point Grin). My DS is just under 17lbs using the size 3's, which supposedly go up to 20lbs but the nappy is getting more difficult to meet up at the sides so we're going to get the next size up before they have a chance to leak on us!

We use Pampers Simply Dry size 4+ for our 18 month old. Never had a leak x

From a non disposable angle - Little Lamb bamboo nappies or Blueberry Bamboo prefolds under a Blueberry coverall are bombproof. Only thing that kept DD dry overnight.

Pidgy · 05/07/2013 19:50

Watching with interest. I've tried various brands but we still have this problem most mornings with our 13 month ds. He's a tummy sleeper so the back of the nappy is dry and the front is so wet it leaks.

We've resorted to folding a muslin round his waist over the nappy, and then rubber pants over the top.

Not ideal but saves me from changing the bedding and him in the middle of the night when he wakes up wet.

Aldi superdry nappies are great at night and cheap too!
