Cloth Diapering

Night Cloth Diapering

I'm sure this has been asked a million times before but the bump's search engine sucks.  What works for you at night?  I've been double stuffing fuzzibunz and that has worked for us up until lately - he has been soaking through his pj's every other night the past couple weeks.  TIA!

Re: Night Cloth Diapering

  • I'm having the same problem.  I've been double stuffing BG's and adding 2 small HH hemp doublers but now that's not even working.  This morning his whole side from armpit to ankle was soaked.  I felt terrible.  Clearly we need to figure something else out.  Most people here use fitteds and wool at night but I don't like having his whole diaper area damp.  I'm thinking of getting some fleece stay dry liners to lay in a fitted and use it with wool.

  • We used to use B4s with wool overnight, but then she started wetting through. Now we've switched to Goodnights (Goodmama brand overnights) with a Hemp Babies and a Thirsties Fab Doubler added in...all under a heavily lanolized Disana wool soaker. Now that my Goodnights are fully prepped, she wakes up with the outside of her diaper barely damp as well as her skin since the doublers add enough absorbency to wick the moisture away.

  • I haven't had luck with pockets at night.  But I have a heavy wetting boy who still eats several times a night and sleeps on his stomach. I've been using B4's or toddler size Piddle Poodles with wool and they're working fabulously!
  • We've always used fitteds with PUL covers (I used wool briefly but he outgrew what we had and I didn't invest in more).  The wetness has never bothered him (he STTN night now) and we've never had rash issues.

    Our current combo is a Sbish snapless fitted with 3 of their inserts and an extra hemp insert on the outside - he is a SUPER soaker these days though ;-)  At 6 months, we were still changing him once a night generally since he woke so we just used a goodmama or b4.

  • We are currently using SBish snapless with a hemp babies doubler under a wool soaker. She wakes up with her diaper pretty wet, but her PJs and sheets are dry.

  • I use Kawaii Heavy Wetter Goodnights. I love them, but I just don't like fitteds very much. Before that I was using BSRB fitteds with a wool or PUL cover. It worked just fine actually, but I like pockets more.

  • I use a sbish snapples multi with a stay dry hemp doubler on top. I use a wool soaker over it and it's worked great for us. As long as the wool is lanolized we've had no leaks! I also have a GM good.night but haven't tried it yet.

    what brand stay dry hemp doubler do you use?

    There are fitteds that are fully lined with microfleece or suedecloth, just like pockets. I've used fleece-lined Happy Hempys and Very Baby Simply Nights in the past, under wool, with great success for my EXTREMELY heavy wetting daughter.

    These days, DD doesn't soak her diaper quite as badly, so she is able to do a Kawaii or BG 4.0 pocket overnight, stuffed with a Greenhorn Super Sleepytime insert. The insert is drenched in the morning, but she doesn't usually leak. I also throw a pair of fleece PJs over the diaper. That keeps the sheets dry on the occasional night where she does leak a bit.

    DS is in a BG pocket stuffed with a Weehuggers bamboo insert, but he's not a heavy wetter.

  • Two flip inserts, one on top of the other w/ the textured parts facing the middle. In a thirsties cover. No leaks.
