Nappy leaking

Can anyone recommend a good night time nappy for my 18 month old I've always used pampers and they have been fine but now they have started leaking at night. I've tried going up a size and also tried the easy up pants still my daughters sleeping bag is wet and I'm sure this is waking her up.

We use aldi nappies for 18 mo ds and rarely have a leak. He drinks and pees loads! Smile

Assume you are not using active fit nappies as these will leak more in the night.
If aldi doesn't work, consider adding a reusable booster to the nappy (hemp trifold or triple layer bamboo) with a fleece liner over the top. Will make it tons more absorbent!

Some people use two disposables on top of each other - the one on top the other way round...

We used aldi nappies with boosters (re-usable) from about 6 months through until approx 2 years. I don't know how he does it, but any brand of nappy I tried seemed
To leak until I did this.

If you want to see if a booster works before paying out for the re-usable, you could try putting a maternity towel in there - I used to use the natracare ones in DS's nappy when we were away and they worked just as well.
