diapers and sleeping all night

My son doens't sleep through the night yet, but when he wakes up I HAVE TO change is diaper or he'll have an accident.. I was just wondering what am I supposed to do when he does start sleeping all night? I mean just let him have accidents daily? Help! I'm so confused Huh?

Re: diapers and sleeping all night

  • What kind of diapers do you use? They make overnight diapers if you use disposables. Maybe your LO needs to go up a size in diapers. That might help too.

  • I was using LUVS or Pampers Baby Dry at night.. he's in size 2.. if I put size 3 on at night would it help keep him dry until morning? He doesn't have trouble with diaper rash.. we put baby powder on right before bed and Desitin or Butt Paste in the morning after his bm so i'm not worried about that

  • We CD but use disposables at night.  DD is in between sizes right now so I put her in a size 3 which is the larger size.  She sleeps in the diaper all night & I don't change her unless I know she's pooped.  We are using Earth's Best brand right now or Pamper's.  Going up a size at night is a good idea IMH.

  • I hated both of those! I find that both the Luvs and Baby Dry are too thin, and when DD had even a medium sized poop, it always managed to leak out. I use Pampers Swaddlers and Huggies and I find they both work great! Just my opinion...

  • by accidents, do you mean he is leaking?  Move him up a size.  If you have a heavy night wetter you may always have to go up a size for nights. 

    Gabe goes 12hrs 7pm-7am no diaper change (even if he wakes up) and we've never leaked (since we've started using disposables at night).

  • I do Baby Dry during the day and Pampers overnights for overnight.  I never had to do an overnight for DD, but DS will leak.

    This. DS wears size 4 baby dry during the day and size 5 extra protection at night.

  • When ds was still waking up I changed him every time, but I found that when he started sttn becuase he was not having a bottle durring the night his diaper never got too full, so I just change him when he gets up.
