Nappy hell

Baby is 6 months old and every single night he is absolutely wet through. Weve always commented that he wees a hell of a lot for a little one. Please give me advice. This us what we have done so far

When in size 3 used size 4+ pull ups
When in size 3 used size 4+ normal ones
When in size 4 used size 5 pull ups
When in size 4 used size 7 pull ups

The reason why we used size 7 is because my mil gave us a massive bag of size 7 pampers pull ups she had in the cupboard going spare for my Niece

He sleeps from around 7pm till 4am and then wakes for a feed and ill change him. Most of the time his baby gro and sleep bag is wet through and occasionally its gone right through to mattress sheet. If he stirs before 4am and seems restless I will change him. I dont want to start waking him unnecessary to change his bum but don't know what else to do its driving me mad and my washing pile is soooo high.

Oh and the nappies we use for bed are pampers.

Thanks guys x

I put him in his little angel size 4 nappy last night. He had a massive feed around 7pm. Woke up at 550am for another feed and is dry 😁😁 he was half asleep so I didnt bother changing him. Will see when he wakes in the next hour for the day 😬😬

We used incontinence pads for a long time! My son was constantly managing to pee upwards so it soaked out of the waist band (yes, we made sure he was pointing down). He just seemed to wee where there was less absorbency in the nappy.

So we used the + absorbency version of his nappy overnight, plus we stuck a disposable Tena Lady across the inside of his waist band, horizontally. It did the trick! He outgrew it’s eventually.
