6 Mos Old Wetting Through Diaper at Night

Make sure his winky is pointing down in his diaper. They sell things called diaper doublers that might work.

Maybe you could try going to the next size up. I had to do that for awhile with my daughter. At the time, she was wearing 4's during the day and a 5 at night. I kept her in the smaller size as long as I could, because, quite honestly, you get less diapers in a pack the bigger you go. Good luck!

You can try Pampers Cruisers. Did wonders for us.

Just to confirm what everyone else is saying: move up one size and stick to the overnight diapers. :)

sounds weird but a friend of mine swears huggies only good for girls..try a diff brand

Hello M.,
I used White Cloud on both my boys and they are great and not as much as Huggies and Pampers. Good Luck!

Try using the next size up in the huggies & stop all fluids at least an hour before bed.

Also, you can try a stay dry liner in the diaper. They sell them on cloth diapering websites. You have various options. There are thin fleece ones which just keep the baby feeling dry w/o absorbing extra moisture & there are thicker ones w/hemp (or cotton, but hemp absorbs more) which absorbs extra moisture & has a feel dry side. You can wash & dry these in your washer & dryer. (I would still use the overnight disposable diapers w/these).

Finally, if he goes to bed before you do, you can change his diaper just before you go to bed.

Good luck

You could try those old-fashioined "rubber pants" over his diaper and pad. They have terry cloth inside and plastic on the outside.

Try cloth diapers. You'd be surprised at great they work and cute they look

I do remember those times, and it did get to the point where nothing really helped...we used pampers, but switched to the huggies overnights and those seemed to work for us. I think you may just have to suck it up and change him halfway through the night. Sounds like he is just wet and doesn't want to be wet! I know you need your sleep, but he probably just feels really yucky and needs your help to help him be dry again!!

Hemp diaper doublers inside the diaper might work, along with a wool cover like Aristocrats soakers. I use cloth diapers, but it seems like they would work with disposables as well. My baby (also 6 mos.) is a heavy wetter and these have worked really well for me. Some of the doublers are thin enough that you could put two inside without too much bulk. Hemp and wool are really good at pulling the moisture away from the skin, and might actually help with diaper rash if that's a problem. The doublers are easy to wash, and wool covers don't have to be washed very often. I got mine from greenmountaindiapers.com

We had the same issue with one of our little guys. We used Pampers cruisers (tried the baby dry, but they exploded their little pellets everywhere), and went with one size larger just for overnight. It wasn't at six months, but by the time he was one year old we had already cut back on his fluids in the evening. He was very thirsty when he woke up, but it didn't seem to disturb his sleep. Good luck~

I had the same problem with my son at that age until he was a little over 1....Huggies Overnights...they are amazing!!! They held EVERYTHING!!!
You can get them everywhere...

for boys, I always used LUVS, they seem to work better for them, and.. point them down while puttin on the diaper, lol. serioulsy.

Use the next size up and just make sure they are tight enough. That always solves it for us. We use Luv's - they never leak!

I went through the same thing with my now 7 mo old if I used any other diaper then luvs. A size larger may be helpful too. Good luck.
