overnight wetting- wdyd?

So I tried limiting fluid after 5- I tried overnight diapers (and I swear they are worse than the regulars) but last night L woke up at 430a- soaked from neck to feet...I changed him and the bed- and although I loved the chance to rock him (he never lets me rock him anymore)- I'm dragging a$$ today because he was up at 7 - so I want to try and get a handle on this before the new baby comes...

    The overnight dipes are terrible (IMO).

    Try a size up.  Also you could add in a cloth diaper soaker - it is like a cloth pad.

    Would you be opposed to using cloth diapers at night?  If you'd be up for giving it a try- try using a fitted with a wool soaker over it.  Worst case scenario- you try it and don't like it, you can resell both for close to what you paid for them.  Good Luck!

    Evan is a really heavy wetter and we use a size up overnight (Huggies) and he is hardly ever wet.

    I'd try different brands - there's no way he should be that soaked if you aren't giving him liquids after 5. Whatever you are using just probably isn't fitting him that well. Also - if he is a tummy sleeper, try making sure "he" is pointed down and the diaper is higher over his stomach and lower on his back.

    GL!!

    Pretty much everything Telyco said! We use Huggies Overnights and rarely have a leak. He wears size 5, but size 4 babydry during the day.

    I tried liners and a fleece soaker over a disposable, only the overnights keep him dry. Pampers night dipes didn't work for us at all. I do the lower in the back and snug the tabs up good, always pointing him down before securing the diaper.
