Can anyone recommend a cloth nappy for night use only?

DS is only wearing a night nappy now, and we've been putting him in a toddle-ease nappy, a booster and an XL motherease wrap and still pee soaks through and wakes him up.

He's 3 years old but wears age 4-5 clothes and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a nappy for nights that will last through to the morning... and that's big enough for him.

Thanks!

I have asked the ladies at Wee Notions if they can make a Night Notions in a toddler size and they said yes but it may take a few weeks. Although I may not really need one anymore DS1 seems to be dry every morning for the last couple of weeks or so. (It could be worth you e-mailing them to ask. He is in a well boosted Ella's House bumhugger in XL.

I've always used terry squares, which are easily boosted for night time use, and I've never had any leaks. If the standard 60cm size is too small, you can buy larger ones. If DS is only wearing a night nappy, you can even get the terry towelling, make your own.

Personally, a [[http://www.minkinappies.co.uk/index.php?cPath=33_25 Minki Pocket, I've used them at night for two children and never had a leak, ds 4 had only just come out of night nappies and they fitted him fine. You can stuff them with whatever you want, and so make them as absorbent as you need.

Easy peasy bumpers are good and you can stuff them.

Thanks for your replies, will give the stuffable nappies a try then!

I use Motherease nappies on my son but he is only one year old. I use the snap-in liners and a booster pad over night (with the air-flow wrap)this I find keeps him dry for 12 hrs (wish he would sleep for the same time )

Upsey Daisy night nappies made with french soy are FAB. But you are looking at around £15 a nappy. Would sell on well after though as people are usually desperate for them preloved (including me). I am not 100% if it would still fit at that age as I have no idea about sizing of children that age! My daughter is still only 15 months (but a heavy wetter as wees through any other nappy I have tried).

Toby is 29 months (in age 3-4 clothes) and wears XL ella's house bumhuggers (new style with flap out booster and pocket for extra stuffing). They are great - I usually have a fleece wrap over them and no leaks as yet. He is quite small in them so far - they could fit a larger child.

Heard good things about Minki Yoyos but not tried one. About to try Motherease Bedwetters (well not me personally...)
