Stomach Sleeper - dilemma

Julymama714

Hi all! My son has just started sleeping on his stomach most of the night, and both times woken up completely soaked from his diaper. I can only assume because pressure is put on the front of his diaper while on his stomach, it's forcing pee to soak into his clothes? I have no idea how to solve this, we change his diaper before bed!

Is it time to move up a size?

This, or try overnight diapers.

Also, be sure to point his thing down before securing the diaper tabs.

Overnight diapers or larger diapers (size up) for nighttime only. This is really common.

+1 to go a size up.  This happened to us, and LO's been a tummy sleeper since he learned roll over.  The diapers will still be very, very full in the morning but at least LO will be dry! (I joke with my little guy that he gains 5 pounds through the night via his diaper.)

Definitely go one size up! We use one size bigger in Pampers Baby Dry and really like them. We didn't like the Huggies Overnights so it's worth trying different ones if one doesn't work.

Make sure his penis is pointed down and go up 1 size in the diaper. Regukar leaking is always our sign for the next size up.

I tried an overnight diaper last night - much better. I had no idea this was so common and am relieved it was an easy solution

We use a larger size at night and the problem was solved. This happened to us as well.
