Leaking nappy = bladder control??

[Fee05]

DD is almost 18 months and for the last few days her nappies have got full much quicker than normal and leaked out the side.(Just talking about wee here not poo!) I read that one of the signs of getting bladder control is going from a dry nappy to wet very quickly. (During the night this hasn't happened). Any ideas/advice? could there be something else wrong? Do I just need bigger nappies?! Had decided not to start potty training her until at least age 2 as I am expecting DC2 in 4 months, but at this rate I will need to start changing her practically every hour.....

What sort of nappies are you using?

Disposable: Pampers baby dry

have you tried the biggest size for her weight i.e. according to the size guides ds could get into size 4+, 5 and 5+ so I use 5+ as you get more absorbancy that way.

I would sgree with Seona and try to go up a size if poss. If it is only the last few days it has been happening you might have a bad batch of nappies . You could also try those disposable booster pads but that would be pretty expensive for every nappy and shouldn't be necessary for such a young toddler IMO.

Thanks for the advice, I am trying a bigger size nappy today!!
