I have used diaper doublers with any diaper what ever is cheapest... I like the way huggies fits the kids but usually buy what ever is on special... they look a bit like maxi pads... I used to buy them at tom thumb but they have just stopped carrying them;-(

I think that you can find them at baby's R us

They are Amazing! and have made laundry so much easier. I was having to change sheets every day (for both of my sons)

We have a boy who is 2 1/2 years old and we had the same problem,however mainly at night time.

My Mother-In-Law suggest that we "double diaper" him. Meaning that you put 2 diapers on him. We've done that at night time and it really helps.

Also I change our Son before we go to bed at 11 or so at night again. That way in the morning the diaper isn't as wet and we don't end up with wet clothing.

We've tried all the different brands and had the same problem. Usually the top diaper isn't even wet, however it is on there just in case he leaks through.

Might be something you want to try at night especially. Good Luck

try sticking a thick maxi pad sticky side down against the diaper along the inner edge like a belt. that should catch and absorb anything leaking "up" towards the belly button. when my oldest was a baby they actually made maxi looking inserts for just that problem. there was not sticky. depending on how much he leaks will dictate what kind/size of maxi to buy. should solve the problem.
good luck,

With our son, we used the Pampers Swaddlers and then graduated to the Cruisers. They seem to be the best fit for him, yet every child is different :)

We always used Huggies- he leaked out of everything. Just before a year, he started leaking out of Huggies too. At which point i tried Luvs (cheapest to "try") They worked and we've been using them since.
Good luck

Probably obvious answers you've tried:
Bigger size (I have my 17 pounder in size 3)
Point "it" down

Good luck! I've always used the ones from Sam's

I love huggies. Maybe just try the next size bigger. We had the same problem but that fixed it.
