More absorbency for BG's?

My heavy wetting DD has no problems soaking through a double stuffed BG at night. We've tried putting in the microfiber insert and infant doubler, two inserts, two inserts plus a doubler, two inserts plus a Kissaluvs booster, an insert wrapped in a PF...every combo we can think of. (and no they do not need to be stripped).  We've also tried Pf's with a wool cover, pf wrapped microfiber insert with wool, with no success. She wakes soaked, her pj's are soaked, the sheets are soaked. 

So now I am contemplating trying a hemp booster or wrap. Which would you recommend? I am looking at the Hemp Weeds or Hemp booster at cottonbabies.

Or any other suggestions?  We don't want to spend too much more money on CD's since we've already spent quite a bit. 

Re: More absorbency for BG's?

  • What worked for us with DS was 1 big MF insert, 2 small MF inserts, sandwiching a hemp insert (from teh UK, so a random brand), and then using an extra fleece liner inside the BG to keep him dry. It's stuffed and we couldn't fit anything else into it, and it's absolutely sopping by morning (12-13 hours in the CD), but right now is working. I absolutely refused to buy more things without knowing it works, so just kept stuffing the BG until it nearly popped, but was absorbant enough...

  • I use super do inserts in a happy hempys diaper with a wool cover but I've having some smell issues with them. I don't think its related to the insert or diaper but more something I'm doing or not doing in the wash. But so far so good, DS wakes up dry in the morning. We tried a b4 last night and DH changed him this am and said he was dripping wet...

  • I use two foo foo hemp inserts
  • We are currently at 8 layers of microfiber [both that came with BG and a 3 layer I made] but when we need more we are going to foo foo hemp!
