Leaking - Dublin,OH

you probally need to move up sizes. i use pampers cruizers. my 18 month old is in fives because he use to do the same thing. but fives work for him. he weighs 22 bls

I like to use pampers easy-ups for boys at night. They still leak a little sometimes, but it is much better than regular diapers. You should give them a try.

Try moving up a size... everytime I have had this problem it helps.

Huggies used to make diapers called Overnites. They worked VERY well. About 3 years ago, Kroger sold them. I do not know about now. Good luck.

Hi H., my son is 3 but as your son, used to leak almost every nite. I used overnite pull ups and larger diaper and still happened until I started buying Good Nights pull ups and it has worked so far with no exception for about 3 weeks. I think its because they're meant to be for older boys and must hold more amount of pee.

Hope it helps!

Hi H.. I also have a 2 year old boy that has been having the same issues for about a year now. Not so much at nap time but certianly during the night, sometimes to the point that it will wake him up in the middle of the night and he is soaked. I tried all the differnet diapers and on their own, none of them worked for the night. We ended up having to buy plastic training pants (they have material inside and plastic on the outside) which we then put over his diaper (for night we use Huggies Overnites) and for the most part, this works. We have tried limiting his fluids etc but nothing seems to work 100%. The training pants are Carters I believe and can be purchased from babies r us and target. Good luck and let me know if anything else works!

Hi H.,

It has been many years since I've had a baby in diapers but I do remember exactly what you're going through. I put my boys in Luvs diapers at nap and bedtime. They seemed to keep each one of my boys more dry while sleeping!

Good luck! =)

I had the same problem with my 15 month old. She had her last bottle before bed and every morning woke up soaked in pee. We had always used the cheap diapers. I tried a few of the 'expensive' diapers, and have found that the Pampers Cruisers worked the best. Some other responses say to try the over nights, I am going to try that myself! Thanks for the advise.

Hi, I have a 15 month old - large for his age and have noticed that he pees a lot also. I would suggest that you try cloth diapers for nighttime. They work sooooo much better for us especially with regards to leaks and how much they can hold before they leak etc.

Here's what I do:
"Fuzzi Bunz" (size: large) outer layer
1 large folded cloth diaper in the method you choose
1 pre-fold chinese cloth diaper as insert
1-2 "Snappi"s to hold things together easily

To wash:
Biokleen Laundry Detergent and hot water

I had the same problem with my little boy (also 2yr old named Jack!) I have used the Huggies Overnights at night time for about the last year and I have found nothing that works better. I also usually put him in a size up in the overnights. He still leaks occasionally, but at least it is not every night as it used to be! Good luck!

I agree. My son is 18 months and I swear by Huggies Overnites. He is in a size 3 or 4 Pampers during the day and for the past 8 or 9 months I use the size 4 Huggies Overnites. It is well worth it, he hasn't leaked once since!

Definitely try Huggies Overnites! They worked so well for us. They are hard to find, and when you do find them there's usually only a couple of bags there, but I saw them at Meijer's a few weeks ago, so you might want to try there.

My son is 9 now but I had the same problem with him. I'ld say his pee was very powerful. It came out with all kinds of force. lol I also, used Huggies, they were the only brand that I could use on him. I don't know about now but they used to have a nighttime huggie. They were a little more expensive and had less diapers in them but, they were wonderful!!!!!!!!!!! They came in a maroon colored package. If you can find them (if they still make them) they were a miracle to me at night.

There is a product called "Diaper Doublers". It is basically like a maxi pad that goes in the diaper. I never needed them for my boys, but I have also heard that something like a Kotex brand pad works just as well (and is a lot less expensive). Good luck.

I noticed too that when my son starts to leak more freqently, we need to move him to a larger size diaper. He is 2 yrs old and around 28 lbs. We use size 4 still but are on the border of going to 5. Both of my kids are lean but have long torso's it seems. My daughter is 10 months and around 18 lbs but we will probably move her to size 4 the next time we buy them because the diapers just seem to be too short.

We use whatever the Sam's Club brand is (probably similar to the Walmart) and we hardly ever have any leaks. I have been entirely satisfied with them and they are so much less expensive! It's been well worth the membership fee as I buy my formula there too. I do buy the Similac brand of that.

Good Luck,

try huggies overnights, they have worked awesome for us. also, if your son is on the cusp of the next weight up, go up a size in the diaper. also, they still sell rubber pants you can put on over the diaper.

good luck!! :)

My son drinks a lot and leaks out too. What I've done is put a bigger diaper on him when he goes to bed. And I make sure It's pulled up slightly higher in the front than in the back. I use pampers cruisers. They seemed to work best for my son.

Try buying diapers that are one size larger than he would typically wear during the day. Put them on him before naps and bedtime. Good Luck!

Hi H.,

I put my son in huggies overnites. This works really well for us. I have trouble finding them in the giant eagle grocery stores but target and walmart always have them. Good luck.

I had the same problem with my son. Try Luvs for nap and night time.

I had the same problem with my daughter and I use Huggies Overnights and they work great. You could buy Huggies Overnights and the Diaper Doublers that other people are talking about.
What about drinking more milk than juice or water? Water and juice will just make him go more often. Milk is more important than juice for building strong bones anyway! Good Luck!!

Buy the next size up diapers, probably size 5 or 6, instead of the current ones. Also I used "diaper doublers" that can be found at babies r us. I found them at my grocery store and walmart in another state but thankfully, don't need them anymore! Can you cut back on the water some? Is he ready for the potty?

Hi H.!
I was having the same problem with my 18 month old boy who does not go to bed with a cup. We were using pampers, but now switched to Huggies Overnights and that has made a huge difference. No leaks in the morning! Hope that helps! I have purchased them both at Meijer and Target.

Hi H.!

I am going through this now with my son, except mine is the reverse! He son leaks through huggies, but does extremely well with Pampers Baby Dry. He's 32 pounds. So we probably have to move him up to the next size. Do you think you may need to move up? The weight might be really close, but maybe it'll help if you get a small pack and see if it helps; for example, my son is in a size 5 diaper which starts at 27#, I started having him wear those at 24.5#.

Also at night, I use Huggies Night Time diapers. They are extra absorbent. It usually works. I've also had to cut back his drinks at night. And I have to make sure he has a fresh diaper for his nap.

I really like the idea about the douple diapers. I may have to check that out!

Good luck!

I found with my daughter it was because she was holding it while sleeping and then going all at once. If he is on a schedule get him up a couple of minutes early and try taking him to the bathroom. If he is holding potty training will be fairly easy.

My daughter used to leak out of pampers. My husband went online and read some reviews. They suggested we try Walmarts White Cloud diapers. She's never leaked with the white cloud diapers. I'm not a fan of walmart so we only use the diapers at night, but we've never had a problem with them. Good luck.

I know you said you like huggies during the day but have you ried the Huggies Supreme? I have a disabled 6 yr old son who get tube fed at night, he is still wearing a six 6 Huggies SUPREME and he very RARELY leaks. Seeing as he eats all night (8 hrs) he wakes up very wet. However, I would NOT suggest using the pull-ups for night, I tried that and it was awful, he leaked all over everything! Huggies Supreme I think are the best.
Good Luck!

I have had the same problem with my two-year-old. She would just flood her diapers! My sister suggested diaper doublers. Essentially, they are a pad you add to the diaper for extra absorbency. I get mine from Baby's R Us, they come 30 in a pack and only cost about $3. They come in a light blue bag with clouds on it. The only other thing I can suggest is that Huggies also makes diapers for night time that hold more wets. I hope that helps!

We use Huggies Overnight diapers along with "Diaper Doublers" (I've only seen them at Babies R Us). The Diaper Doubler is basically like a sanitary pad that you line the diaper with to make it extra absorbent.

Hope this helps!

Hey H.!
I used the baby dry pampers w/ my son those worked until he was a little older I bought the goodnights and put a pair of little boy underwear over them (sometime they were a little gappy in the legs for my son, but they went higher up in the front preventing him from leaking out). I also just experienced this w/ my 10 month old daughter recently. I stopped her from having extra bottle at night and give her an 8 oz bottle b4 bed time. I found that that pampers did not work for her like they did for my son, but those huggie goodnites in size 5 i have found at cvs. They work really well. I hope all works out for you.

Hi H.,
I too can attest that diaper doublers are miracle workers! I've only seen them at babies-r-us and honestly, my hubby is a bit weirded out by them (too similar to a 'sanitary napkin' for his liking)...but they saved me from the daily laundry caused by leaking diapers!
Good luck!

My son has had the same problem of night-time leakage, at about the same age as your son.
Here's what to do: Go to Babies R Us and buy "Diaper Doublers." They are $2.99 for a pack of 30, and I've only found them at Babies R Us. They're in a light blue package near the pull-ups.
Our son has never leaked when wearing one of these.
Hope you'll have dryer times!

I love pampers cruisers for night time, I have a 13 yr old handicap step son who gets feed continousily through the night. Everything we found would leak except for these. Hope it helps

try the night time diapers they have them in almost all brands...good luck!

Try Huggies Overnights - maybe even in a size bigger than you usually use. You can't find these everywhere, but Babies R Us carries them. I don't know why they don't have them at every store around; these are the only things that kept both of my sons dry through the night.
