  My kid would leak through his diapers every night if I sent him to bed with water.

  DD always has access to water.  I've never haven't had a leak issue in a long time, but did when she was younger.  Moving up a size at night helped.

  I do it too.

  It's the only way she settles down to go to sleep at night. I think the sippy is her comfort item...lol. It's still half full in the morning but I catch her snuggling with it all the time. I do hear her wake up in the night, have a drink and go back down. In the morning when I get her out the first thing she does is hold it out and say "Here you go." It's pretty cute actually.

  We're already using the biggest diapers available and the gel in the overnights just weirds me out. So we're stuck!

  We've let LO have a straw cup in the crib for a while now. He's never had a problem with peeing through his diapers, though.

  I give my son a 1/4 - 1/2 a sippy cup of water. I also set my alarm for 2am to check him in case he needs a diaper change. It's a little bit of a hassle but it's worth it for a good night's sleep.
