Leaky Diapers

I would try the overnite diapers. I think huggies makes them. They work well.

I would recommend trying a few different brands. Oddly enough the way babies sleep and their bodies causes gaps and leaks in different brands so what might work for one baby might not work for another and price doesn't always guarantee a great diaper for overnight. We lucked out for over a year and the generic Wal-mart brand worked the absolute best in one size larger than what my daughter normally wore during the day. But then we started getting leaks again and we tried Luvs, Huggies, and finally settled on Pampers. They've worked great for awhile. Now we're almost at the end of potty-training and she only wears the Huggies overnights. Good luck!!

Make sure to pull the top up and the edges around her legs; this seals the gap.
We use the cheap diapers from Aldi and have never had a problem with leaks.

I have a son who is 14 months now and weighs 29 lbs...he is a big solid boy and I too have went through MANY diapers to find one that will work for him...He drinks his bottles like a fish. What I have found to work is Huggies Supreme Natural Fit. They have worked great for us and believe me they can hold a TON as I've taken diapers off of him after a good nights sleep that were VERY full and VERY heavy! We just kept buying small pkgs of diapers until we found one that worked..then we went and bought a big box of them. I have also found that when Aiden was leaking through it helped to move up to the next size. He is now in a size 5 diaper. Hope this helps.

Huggies Overnights!! I've used them with my son since about 1 yr old. They only come in size 4 and 5 but even if she doesn't wear size 4 yet, it'll work!! They are wonderful and my son has never leaked through them!

I use the huggies overnights diapers, one size up from what we normaly wear and that does the trick most of the time. good luck!

My son is almost 13 mos and I just switched him to Huggies Overnights. I used them for my daughter too. My son is still in size 3 diapers, but I have only found the Overnights in size 4, but they fit and work really well.

I always used parents choice diapers for my daughter and never had a problem with her leaking through the night. You can buy them at walmart if this helps.

2 things that worked for me-I used the quality diapers, such as the pampers, in the next larger size or the Huggies overnights in the current size. Both worked well and it all depended on cost of the diapers and if I had a coupon.

The only thing that worked for us was to put a diaper a couple sizes bigger on our kids at night. We had that problem and the bigger diapers seemed to work for us. Good luck!

Huggies Overnight diapers are awesome! We were having the same problem.

Hi there!! I've been through this with my two year old, and now my 6 month old as well. I've tried other diaper brands, and honestly think pampers is the best... the others were worse! especially huggies- if they get too full the beads will spill out onto your babies skin- not good.

But what I have found to solve the problem is at night I put one size bigger on them than what they wear during the day. They are loose under clothes, yes, but they still keep everything in, and there is a little extra room for all that pee!

hope this helps!

I find that using the next size up for overnight stops that problem. Hope that helps!

We found that Huggies Overnights worked well for our son. They come in smaller diaper sizes vs. the Good Nights brand, and I can't recall a single leak when using them. They aren't found at Target, but you can get them at Kmart, Wal-Mart and most grocery stores.

I use Huggies overnight..these are diapers, not pullups...they have extra absorbancy...I love them!!

I like most of the night time diapers. They keep my son's stuff dry most nights.

Been there, done that w/both of my kids. What I did was switch to the next larger size diaper (ie-if she wears a size 3, buy size 4 for bedtime). Now that my daughter is 2 1/2 and wears Huggies Supreme size 6, she wears the small size Goodnites pull-ups. This has worked well for me and might be worth a try. Good luck!!

I am a firm believer in Huggies overnights. My daughter will leak through anything else but these have held up from day one!!

Huggies has a Overnight diaper that I use on my 22 month old son. They are great. They only come in size 4 and 5, but do the trick.

I usually find them at Target.

Hope this helps.

We had to do the same thing...cut back to no liquids after 630 p.m. and the only diaper we found that didn't leak was Luvs. we found that the overnight diapers weren't much different that the regular Luvs diapers. We found that if they were leaking out the top then upsizing to the next size worked better. With our daughter, it was partially due to the fact that she would sleep with her butt up in the air. We tried Huggies (reg. & overnight) and they practically fell apart.

Huggies work best for us overnight. Both my 3 and 1 year old wake up with damp pj's if we use Pampers or anything else.

I use Pampers BabyDry and a diaper doubler. They sell them at Babies r us. It's like a maxipad without adhesive that you put in the diaper. I had the same problem and this was the solution.

I prefer the Huggies Supreme (red bag) diapers for my boys. You can also buy the next size up for nighttime.
Good luck!

Honestly, I have always used the Target Brand diaper and have never had a problem. 1/2 the price too!

We had the same problem - try using Pampers Baby Dry at night - that worked great for us! Good luck to you!

We use Pampers Cruisers for daytime, but ALWAYS use Huggies nightime diapers for bedtime. Don't confuse them with the Huggies "overnites", more for older bedwetters. We have 4 groceries and 2 department stores in our village and only ONE of them carries our Huggies nighttime diapers! Buy them one size too big for your little one. Best wishes

We have found that Pampers Baby Dry work best for overnight. Added bonus, the Baby Dry are usually cheaper than other styles of Pampers.

I use Luvs. I've had maybe 5 accidents for the last two years. usually I go in and check the diaper if i go to bed. If its pretty full then, I go ahead and change her.

I don't know if this will work or not but with my oldest who has Autism, I used pull-ups. They seemed to work. I know it can be frustrating but you may need to put an insert pad in the diaper. That's what we did when I was a Nanny. We had to put the extra pad because her son wet so much at night. I'd get the next size up for diapers, too. They might be a little big for him but you can always pull them tighter. Good luck!!!! Happy Holidays!!!!!

Have you tried going up a size on the diapers. I've found throughout my son's life, whenever he needs a larger diaper size it seems he's wet during the night no matter what. Also, I switched from Pampers to Luvs and that helped. I don't know if the brand switch will be necessary, but maybe a size larger diaper will help!

Hi L.,
Every child is different. With my first child the only diaper that didn't leak was the generic brand from Albertson's. This time around, the only one that has NOT leaked is the Kirtland brand from Costco. And, like some other moms mentioned, we always buy a size bigger.
Good luck finding one that works!

You could try using Huggies Over night diaper. I have never used them myself but one of my friends did and she said they worked great. She said she used generic diapers during the day and those at night. good luck..

huggies overnights have worked well for both of my kids

We ran into the same problem with my daughter around the same age. A friend of mine suggested Huggies Overnight diapers. They worked like a charm! Good luck!

Huggies makes an overnight diaper, although I've never tried it. I like Luvs, they're pretty good. My daughter still leaks thru every now and then. The other thing you could do is get one size bigger, just for at night. Or I've heard of people putting on two diapers at night, too. Hope that helps!

You could try using a size up, or getting a few cloth dipes that you put on OVER the disposable. Good luck!

Hi L.,
We always got a size bigger for my kids and then used those only at night. That way there was diaper. We also found that the regular Pampers worked better for us. They never leaked and for some reason the Cruisers sometimes leaked. I don't know why.

I went through the same thing with my daughter. I swear by Huggies Supreme. Not even regular Huggies worked the same and I've also tried different brands and the Supremes are the only ones that hold.

The Huggies overnites worked great for us.

I heard that putting a maxi pad inside the nighttime diaper sometimes works.

I had the same problem with my son when he was that age. I understand that you stop drinks after dinner, but I was not sure on the time lapse from dinner to bedtime. Try to cut fluids 2 hours before bedtime. If the problem persists, add anoth 30 minutes and so on. This seemed to assist in our problem. It was hard for he wanted water, but we had to be firm. Good luck!

Hello! I had the same problem and I used 2 diapers at first, one with a slit down the middle, until my daughter was big enough to use Huggies overnights ( they come no smaller than a four) she still wears size 3 diapers but the size four overnights are working great! Hope this helps good luck!

I had that problem with my (now) 2 year old. After much advice, I switched to the Target brand, and got a size larger. My 11 month old has always had the Target brand diapers, and I've never had a problem with leaks. Plus, they're so much cheaper!

she might be ready for the next size up. Or you can try Huggies Overnights. Or just wake up to change her halfway through the night. I have to change my 8 month old right before bed, again at midnight, and usually again around 4am to keep her dry through the night.

She may be ready for the next diaper size, even if her weight indicates otherwise. Whenever my kids started wetting through the diaper I would change them to a bigger diaper and problem solved. Good luck.

I always used huggies and never had an issue in the middle of the night. They also have the overnight diapers. I can't remember what they are called though.

I had the same problem with my 15month old, we tried the huggies overnights and it took care of the problem. Pampers, Luvs and all the store bought brands just don't cut it even the regular huggies won't do the job.

One thing I did was buy one size bigger than daytime and buy a name brand diaper for night time. I've heard of diaper doublers, too, but have never tried them.

Huggies Overnights are the best!

Not sure if this will help or not, but my 2yr old pees A Lot when he goes, as if it is definitely potty training time! But anyway, i use Luvs cause they are the only diaper that he does not leak through! and they are cheaper when you look at price and how many diapers in a package! Either that or go up in a size that might help too! I used to use the white cloud brand from walmart cause they were cheaper and worked just as well as any other but now they are cheaper but you get less diapers! hope this helps!

Huggies Overnites work great. I've been using them for my son ever since he could wear the size 3 diapers. They come in 3's, 4's, and 5's. I even e-mailed them to see if they could make a size 6 as that is what my son is in now, but they don't make that size. However, no wetting through problems with the size 5 overnites that he still wears! They can be hard to find....Wal-Mart doesn't have them anymore, but a lot of grocery stores do. I just recently ordered them on-line.

When my son did this I changed diaper sizes. He was not quit weight ready to change but I put them on tighter. He has yet to leak through everynight.

I've never tried it, but I know people who have had success putting a maxi pad in their children's nighttime diaper.

My daughter did a science project on which diapers were the most absorbent (which absorbs the most) and Pampers were one of the worst! Huggies will hold like 8 cups of water without leaking. But they do also have diapers called "Overnights" I'm not sure who makes them, they are supposed to be pretty good.

We use the Huggies Overnight size 4 diapers and they are the best! Our son was doing the same thing and we tried everything including the diaper doublers which didn't work. I highly recommend the Huggies Overnight diapers. I have only been able to find them at Schnucks.

Honestly, just go up a size on the diaper. Pampers "Baby Dry" seemed to work best.
Since I had a problem with certain diapers which exploded, I called Proctor & Gamble and that was their suggestion was to increase the size. They explained all children hold different amounts of fluids so that is why the diapers range so much in how many pounds the child is for a gauge on what diaper size to choose. (They also sent me a voucher for 10 dollars off diapers!)

At that age the potty training should be introduced any way but it might be a good idea to have your daughter sit on the potty before she goes to bed. My oldest daughter was potty trained day and night by the time she was 15 months old. I did not push her into it. All I did was start having her sit on the potty before she goes to bed and she did the rest. The other three of my children was a differant story though.

HUGGIES OVERNIGHTS even if they are a little big, They are the only thing that worked with most of my kids during the night.

We use the Huggies Overnites and they work great! My son always wakes up really wet no matter what we do, but he doesn't wet his pj's anymore with these.

I just read someone else's response...we always get ours at Target on 27th Street.

I would try going up a size (if she was in size 3, use size 4 at night). Good luck!

We use Huggies Overnights for our babies, 13 mo. old son, and i still use them on my 2-1/2 yr old daughter! they seem to work the BEST!
Good luck!!

I have never been a fan of Pampers Cruisers. Huggies Supreme makes a night time diaper that is great for sizes 3 and up. I know I can get them at K-Mart and Albertsons. I love them!

Good job cutting the amt. of drinks down after dinner.
It sounds to me like it might be time to go up a size in diapers. Anytime we started having leaking problems going up a size helped...also I have two children under 4 and have tried every single brand/style of diaper ever made...I found that the Walmart brand, white cloud, worked just as well as the pampers or huggies or luvs or anyother brand and they are ALOT cheaper!

There is an "overnight" diaper on the market specifically meant to hold a lot of fluid. I've had to use it. I believe it is made by Huggies. Worked well for my son who did not stay dry overnight until he was FOUR ! The package is purple and I believe it even has a moon and stars, hence, the name "overnight" diaper. Good luck !

I love the Costco diapers (Kirkland Signature brand). I tried almost every brand out there before I found one that keeps my son dry at night. Ever since he could roll over he has been sleeping on his stomach and he used to wet out the top front of his diaper every night. I actually bought a size bigger than usual so they would extend further up on his tummy and that seemed to help for overnight (but not for daytime because the leg elastics weren't snug enough to prevent poopy leaks). The Costco diapers are slightly less expensive than Huggies (last time I compared prices). They have a double-elastic leak guard around the legs, super wide and stretchy waist band, stretchy and strong closure tabs, and an extra-absorbent inner pad that extends from front to back (to work well for girls and boys. Good luck - I hope you find something that works!

Umm she is awful young to potty train and maybe you need to find something else that hold it all like cloth diaper? Yeah.. I said cloth diapers! Things have changed since the old days. They are no longer pins and plastic pants. You must google cloth diapers and see what it becomes. Try looking here as well, http://hyenacart.com/index.php there are many cloth diapers that can be custom made to fit your child. They offer snaps, velcro, snappi, pins and more! Cloth diapers are adorable, fun, easy to clean, and BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT! Try that place is great! Not to mention they offer many one of kind items for kids, moms, dads and handmade toys! This is one of my most favorite places on the net to shop and best of all-all the stores are own by stay at home moms!

there is a product called diaper doublers. You can get them at toys r us and babies r us. They are just the absorbent part of the diaper that you place in with the regular diaper and "doubles" the amount of liquid the diaper can hold. We use cloth during the day and sitll use a disposable and a doubler every night. The best part about the doublers is the price. They are 3.99 for 30. The other suggestion I have and was suggested to me before we switched to modern cloth diapers, if she is soaking through the diapers, just move her to the next size. My son always was a big soaker and he was in at the low end of the weight range with all of the diapers he has worn. Sometimes he was smaller. Hope this helps!

Huggies Overnights were the only thing that I could find that didn't leak. Still had some nights where she woke up wanting to eat/drink alot and we still had leaks, but few and far between.

I agree with the other posts huggies overnites work well.

Hi L..

I had to double diaper my daughter a few times when she was going through growth spurts. If she didn't end up peeing through to the second diaper (completely dry and clean) I would put it back on her after I took the wet one off and had cleaned her up. It is an easy way to keep them dry, but can get expensive if you don't reuse the diapers that are perfectly clean still. DO NOT reuse any double diapers that are wet or dirty at all, even if they are barely wet or dirty. It is better to contain the mess than have her sleep in peed clothes and sheets or disturb her sleep every night for a diaper change, in my opinion.

Good luck and take care. A.

Huggies Overnights are the only diaper that has worked for us. Now my son can go 12-13 hours without a diaper change at night.

We tried everything with both of my sons because we, too, had lots of leaks at nights... I found that Pampers Cruisers worked the best. We went one size up at night and added a thick maxi pad. Good luck!
