Attachment Parenting

this is really weird, right?

yesterday, DD woke up with a basically dry diaper. she still wakes/nurses overnight, but i've got no clue how many times it would have been that night. over the day, she had 5-7 wet dipes (DCP report, but that's a change about every 2 waking hours in sposies), and ate/drank as normal.

she's never been one of those epic wetters who can only make it overnight in a fitted w/extra inserts and woolies. but still, that is really unusual, isn't it? does it merit a pedi call if there are no other signs of anything going on?

  • It's normal for LOs to stay dry longer around this age, so I wouldn't worry too much. We've noticed Ari soaks his fitted all at once around 11-12 now & is dry the rest of the night. He's still nursing a good bit too.

    We EC so I'm able to see some significant urine output upon waking too.

  • I don't think it's that weird. My DD has randomly woken up with dry diapers, even when she was a lot younger and even though most nights she was a super soaker. Typically the first diaper of the day tended to be completely soaked if she stayed dry at night. DS hasn't had a completely dry diaper, but there have been some that were just kinda wet - far less than his normal output.

    If it's just one night and just overnight, no big deal. If her output throughout the day is down, I'd worry.

  • I have had the same thing happen a few times. I wouldn't worry unless she doesn't have a wet diaper all day, or only has a few!!
  • DS is only 10 weeks and a really heavy wetter, but a couple weeks ago he took a long nap naked without peeing (he was having a conniption and I had stripped him to see if anything was hurting him).  He even nursed in the middle of the nap and no pee.  He did pee all over the bed and himself immediately upon waking though!  Sometimes flukey things happen, I guess.

    naked is always the best time to go :)
