Leaking Through Diaper at Night

My 15 mo. old son is in the biggest size diapers (6). They seem snug on him and at night he always seems to leak through. I use Luvs for him. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do or which diaper brand to buy?! Thanks!!

What can I do next?

we use the Huggies overnights and they are great! I buy them in one size up. I can only find them at BRU or HyVee stores

Hi there, my 8 mo old and my 2 yr old will leak so i started using huggies overnights, that usually works, i also try no to let my son drink much after 7:30 that helps

Also, maybe the luvs brand doesnt match his body type. I use pampers.

I'm responding because I have the same problem with my 18 month old and I would like to see how other people responded. He's in size 5's and it doesn't happen every night but most nights it does. I just put a shirt or onesie on him because the pants would just get wet. Does he have a lot of liquids? I still give him a "baba" at night and I put mainly water (mixed with just a splash of juice) because I know milk is bad for their teeth (to be sitting on them all night).

Try the Huggies Overnights. They worked best for my babies when they were in diapers.

I used to put a pull up over my daughters diaper at night. It worked pretty well.

You know, we never had any good things to say about Luvs. They never kept my son dry. Believe it or not, the Wal-Mart brand of diapers work very well. We have never had a problem with them and let me tell you, my son has filled them to capactity on a number of occassions! Hope this is helpful to you!

I've always been a faithful Pampers Cruisers user since my son was born (he's 2) but he too started leaking through right about the same time. I started buying Huggies Overnights and they work like a charm.

Pampers Baby Dry is GREAT for overnight leakers. I started my daughter on them after a couple of nights of her soaking the bed and havent had a problem since!

HUGGIES OVERNITES!!! They are awesome at night!! Rarely do they leak and when they do it is because we let her have a whole glass of milk before bed. They are somewhat expensive but I think it is worth not having to change sheets nightly, having your child wake up early because they are soaking through PJ's, etc... Good luck!

Have you tried Huggies Overnights? My son had the same problem. We tried every diaper out there and Huggies Overnights were the ones that worked best for him. Every once in a great while he would leak through, but 99% of the time he woke up with dry pajamas.
