My DD is a great sleeper, averaging about 10 hours all the way through 45nights a week. Is it bad that I am letting her sit for that long in a seriously pee filled diaper?? She doesn't have a rash and is bathed daily, but am I taking advantage of her great sleep habits and making a mistake by not changing her?
Yeah, I only change his diaper in the middle of the night if he is wide awake and I know it won't make a difference. If he's sleeping or even half-wakes up to eat, I let it be.
They usually pee a less if they STTN because they aren't waking to be fed multiple times so your diaper should be able to manage all night. DD still wakes up a couple times and last night I changed her at 4 AM [first change since 7 PM] and it was a huge mistake. Her diaper wasn't even all that wet & she woke up wide eyed and wouldn't go back to sleep for like 1.5 hours.
DD sleeps 12 hours most nights and stays in her diaper. I wouldn't dare wake her up just for a diaper change. I try to put a layer of desitin on for her last diaper of the night, and she hasn't had a rash yet. I wouldnt worry about it.

I never wake for a diaper change. And even towards the end of the nighttime feedings I stopped changing because DS would be nice and drowsy. Honestly, I don't even change for poop at night! Unless there is a major leakage issue going on, I leave DS in his diaper until morning. Now he STTN so it's definitely not happening!
