Well, what have you tried that didn't work?

We've tried BG AIO 3.0 and FB OS. 

Do you really mean BG AIOs or do you mean BG pockets? If you mean pockets, then I'd start by stuffing with two full-size inserts. If that doesn't work, try buying some hemp inserts and putting one hemp under (away from baby) and a large microfiber insert on top (closer to baby, in the pocket).

Is the hemp bad for LO's skin? 

So I would stack the microfiber insert and hemp insert, microfiber on top, and stuff the whole thing into the pocket?  Goodness!  Will that all fit?!  lol 

ETA: Do you have any hemp insert recs?

    No, hemp is not bad for the skin at all. All the inserts should be inside the pocket, so nothing touches the baby's skin.

    First try 2 large inserts, both in the pocket. If that doesn't work, try one hemp and one microfiber, both in the pocket. 

    The reason you layer them is because microfiber is quick absorbing, but doesn't hold much, while hemp is slower absorbing but holds a lot. The MF on top allows it to soak through quickly while the hemp allows for holding more fluid as the night goes on. 

    You should have no problem with two inserts in a pocket. That is a standard night-time solution, even for babies that aren't heavy wetters. Some people use three inserts, but you can start to have problems with gapping at the legs if you do that.

    Oh, for the hemp inserts, I really like those made by Artsy Fartsy Foo Foo. She stocks infrequently, but makes a really great product and is a nice mama.
