Overnight leaks

Annd22

I have a 6 month old that has been frequently leaking at night.  As he's started sleeping through the night we have more and more mornings where he wakes up soaked.  We use BG 4.0s and I stuff with one microfiber and one hemp.  I've also tried a BG freetime with a hemp insert.  Last night I did a 4.0 with a microfiber and 2 hemps and that seemed to work but it's only been one night.  Any other suggestions?  Should I try a different insert?  I keep hearing/reading about wool but I know it can be pricey.  Any suggestions are welcome - TIA!

My 2.5 yo is fine with a Joey Bunz premium hemp and a bamboo insert. She either completely soaks the diaper or wakes up dry.

I was having the same problem with pockets. I now use a fitted at night with a fleece cover and never have leaks anymore.

We started with pockets stuffed with bamboo and hemp, it worked for a little while, but then she started sleeping on her side/tummy more and we were getting major leaks.

Now we use fitteds and wool and never have a leak. On the rare occasion dd won't wear a fitted (gotta love toddlers!) I put wool over a pocket, but I don't like to do that since it's so warm.

Fitteds are foolproof. Whether you pair it with wool, fleece or PUL.

Fitteds and wool!

And there are plenty of upcycled options out there that are not privy at all. You can usually find double layer Woollybottoms soakers used for 20.
