Overnight diapers

missyrad

 I have mf and bamboo inserts and i was wondering what you use for  your baby at night. I change my ds diapers literally 3 times a night bc i dont want him waking up with a leak.  Last night i wanted to see how long my bamboo inserts would last and the first diaper change lasted 5 hrs but the second time i changed him was 4 hrs later and he was completely wet....i do feed him at least once around 2am.

muffin87:

Are you using both inserts or just one at a time. I use 2 microfiber and one bamboo for overnight and she goes 12ish hours in it.

 

I was only one bamboo insert bc i heard they were super absorbent. Do you do 2 mf together then the bamboo or do you put the bamboo in the middle?

I do one of the following. Either:

A Thirsties Fab fitted with Thirsties Hemp insert inside a Flip cover

 OR

A pocket (either BG 4.0 or Alva) stuffed with 1 MF and two Thirsties Hemp inserts

 OR

A Flip stay dry insert plus two Thirsties Hemp inserts inside a Flip cover.

 

My girls seem to be heavy wetters, and though bulky, all of those options keep them dry for as long as 6pm to 8:30am.

We use BG4.0s with both MF inserts + a Thirsties hemp insert. Works very well.

(DS is mostly a tummy sleeper now, too)

I use fitteds and wool primarily, but when DD has a sitter I set out a pocket diaper stuffed with a JoeyBunz premium hemp and a tri-folded Flip organic insert - so 4 layers of hemp and 12 or 16 layers of cotton.

I use a Kawaii Goodnight Heavy Wetter, with 2 big microfiber inserts and 2 hemp inserts (layered micro, hemp, micro, hemp) and this will keep him dry for about 10 hours.
