How big is your ON diaper?

I've been struggling with an ON solution for awhile now. I was using disposables overnight, but he's power leaking through those. I don't like my Sbish OBF, I don't like how the fabric gets so hard when wet. I got a Bamboozles fitted, and I've added to it a JoeyBunz premium and a Geffen baby high absorber. It looks massive! Does everyone have a huge ON diaper?

    A's is pretty big. It's a pocket stuffed with a HOBF insert (3 layers) and a hemp fleece flat folded in half then in quarters (8 layers) for a total of 11 layers of heavy fabric. So yeah, it's pretty thick.

    Huge. Massive even :) compared to my petite lo. I use a sbish obf with all the layers. I find tumble fluffing it helps the hardness, and I use a fleece liner to make it soft against her. I just got a sbish HLC and it stays soft, and seems to be similar to obf. I've used it with a wool cover though. Just started trying this combo this week though. My back up is a apple cheeks 3 layer bamboo trifolded with a sbish doubler or best bottoms hemp underneath in a big pocket or flip cover.

    Dd was a heavy wetter. I didn't like the Sbish fitted either. I always thought after she ores it got too hard and cold. My best solution was a premium hemp insert wrapped in a prefold and a flip cover over. I never had leaks and it wasn't too bulky.

    I use a bamboo fitted with a couple of inserts.  It's definitely bigger than his daytime diapers, but it's not gigantic.  However, when he was about 4 to 10 months old, it seemed pretty huge.  He's grown into it.

    For awhile - huge. From about 6-14 months the only thing DD wouldn't soak through was a Twinkie Tush Night Night fitted plus a Joey Bunz hemp insert under a homemade wool soaker. It was annoying because it was so hard to fit under pajamas. Now that DD is not such an overnight peeing machine, I'm using a GMD toddler prefold and a Joey Bunz hemp insert under a Thirsties cover. Still bulkier than daytime, but smaller than the TTNN.

    Mines pretty big. I use a TT Night Night. It's better than his Sbish though.

    Yup, super huge baby butt.  We use a bamboozle with a hemp insert (plus the snap-in insert that comes with the dipe itself).  With a fleece liner to keep her dry.  Then a charcoal-bamboo doubler between the diaper and the wool cover.  Big dipes don't matter at night, they're just laying there anyways :)

    ours isn't so big yet.  We use a BG 4.0 stuffed with the OS MF inserts snapped plus a thirsties hemp doubler.  M's 5.5 months so we haven't needed anything crazy big yet.  Or maybe he's not a heavy heavy wetter

    @nana and @Aurora, or anyone who has used both TT and Sbish, does the TT get as hard when it gets wet like the Sbish?

    We use a best bottoms cover with a doubler and a cotton/hemp insert. It's bigger than daytime, but not huge and no leaks.

    Not really. It can get a bit stiffer, but the fabrics all around are softer and nicer than the Sbish. Plus with all that velour they are soft for baby as well.
