Your baby at night..

...if you know your baby is wet during the night but they are fast asleep as it has not woken them should you wake them immediately and change them or let them sleep until they wake and then change them so that you don't disturb their sleep?

TBH, I wouldn't know til the baby had woken me up anyway. I'm not much of a night time checker!
So I would change, whilst bemoaning the extra blummin' washing

Only wake for poo - look at different brands of nappy - or a size up at night. I also try and put cream on at night so that it doesn't affect their skin too much. I have lived and learnt (after a few mistakes to really avoid waking a sleeping baby)

Ds goes through stages of this happening. We cosleep so I soon find out if he's wet through his PJs. Yes, I do always change him, although I hate it as he usually wakes up. But for sure the wet would wake him up sooner or later anyway. Sometimes I even have to change my own PJs as he leaks onto me sometimes. We can't, however, work out why sometimes it happens and not others.

If he's wet through change him. Buy pampers baby dry for night time too.

Another vote for trying the next size up, if that doesn't work, try different brands. Slather the whole area in barrier cream to guard against nappy rash :)
