belly sleeping

I know I've seen this before but can't find it.  DD now likes sleeping on her belly at night.  A few times she has woken up with her shirt soaked.  I used to use a BG 4.0 with two inserts with the extra fold near the rear.  I did switch that around and put the extra fold in front and I think that helped.  Are there any other tricks for belly sleeping?  I used a happy hempy with an insert and a thirsties cover and that was a total flop.

    Hemp inserts can help.  Opening up the rise so you can get a tighter fit at the waist can help.

    But, there was nothing I could do with my pockets to stop the leaks.  We moved to fitteds and wool and haven't looked back.  Totally bulletproof overnight for DD.

    I have a super soaker lately and I always use the BG 4.0 for night time.  What I've been doing lately is rather than using the additional insert that came with the BG (I was even using two of those at a time), I use the additional insert from the Blueberries that I have and so far, this seems to work better for us.

    A lady in my fb group started putting the night time diaper on backward for her belly sleeper and swears by it.
    My DS is a belly sleeper, but we actually have less leaks no so.. I hope that helps.

    I have found that a fitted with a cover, wool specifically, is best for my tummy sleeper. What did you stuff your HH with? Is it fully prepped? We have two of these, and stuffed with a trifolded applecheeks bamboo insert and a thin hemp doubler this gets us 12 hours under a wool cover.

    We were having this exact same issue with our DS who is almost 24 pounds.  called Cotton Babies (who I bought them from) and the first question she asked was DS's weight.  She said at that weight, the rise should be at the tallest setting, but we should still be overlapping the aplix in front. 

    I guess it was so, because since we started getting it super duper tight (seriously, it takes Herculean strength), we've had no more leaks unless he is totally totally soaked.
