I am sure this has been asked before, so I apologize if this is repetetive...
Last night DS pooped his pants at 3AM, just after he nursed himself to sleep...and I let him sleep in the dirty diaper til morning...is that awful?????
He screams bloody murder when I change him, so I thought he may be better off resting rather than getting all worked up again...Do you change LO in the middle of the night??
Re: Do you change LO in the middle of the night?
Yes I do. Before each feeding even if it's just pee. I just can't imagine being that uncomfortable.
My LO used to cry alot at the beginning as well; but he's cooled off now

I have been changing LO every time he wakes up which means he has a wet and dirty diaper as well as being super hungry. I change him as soon as he wakes up and then nurse him. He is usually really great about being changed. Either he has figured out that there is a meal in his future or I have gotten good.
I have had similar experienes of nursing and then having LO fill his pants at which times I have changed him, offer him the chance to nurse again, and he usually goes right back to sleep.
Your LO might actually sleep BETTER/LONGER if you didn't knowingly leave him sit in his own feces for hours.
Just sayin'.
