Which washable nappies for night-time?

I used prefolds with my ds a few years ago and plan to use them again when ds2/dd2 comes along in a month or so. When ds got a bit older I found the prefolds and booster sometimes leaked overnight.

Just been looking at these new nappies like tots bots, fluffles, etc wondering if these would be more absorbent and more able to cope with night-times?? Or if anyone has any other suggestions? Thanks

TOTS BOTS ALL THE WAY! With a Motherease Wrap!

The ONLY nappy for night time... and daytime in my case!

What about these fleece wraps?

I'm with JBM... never had any other wraps though, so can't comment on those

I only used white normal tots for night, with booster.

Interested in this thread?

I tried a bumble the other night and it was really good. Has a fleece liner so you don't have to bother with adding one. Presume you can add more boosters within the pocket if need be. It dried quicker than expected the next day too. Used with a mother ease wrap.

agree with spikemomma, bumble with airflow wrap is best for night-time, i've found.

dh likes terries cos they're cheap! (& surprisingly good too, if you can handle the folding, nippa'ing etc. also with ME wrap)

We used to use a prefold with a hemp booster, inside a disana tie-on nappy with a cotton bottoms/bummis super whisper wrap in size large. It worked really well and I'm sure it still would, it was a bit of a faff though.
More recently I have been using Peeweez size large, they are fab night nappies. Also a well stuffed bumble or a well stuffed hemp stuffie nappy, I also have one huggle,which is very good as well.
The quickest drying is the bumble, as it is terry towelling, and they are quite neat.
I have found with it is it seems to stain badly (it is all white).
The stuffie is also very neat dries more slowly and is less liable to staining, has a coloured fleece inner and natural hemp outer.
The huggle takes ages to dry, like a couple of days, but looks quite cute and works well with no boosting
I do really like the peeweez as they are easy to put on with poppers, the containment is the best I have come across and they look funky. The drying time is actually quite good considering they are so thick.
We tend to use a wool wrap as well, it is more breathable and increase the absorbency of the nappy.
I have got a nappy reviews blog here if you want to see the nappies I have mentioned actually on a baby (my ds).

MaisieMog - thanks for that, especially the link to your site. It was really useful!
