Nighttime Diapers?
I am having a hard time finding a diaper that can make it all night for my 19-mth-old son. He wets through everything we've tried and this wakes him up due to the cold and uncomfortable feeling. Currently we use Pampers Cruisers and we are trying Pull Ups Nighttime for boys. He sleeps through the night otherwise.

Thanks for everyone's response!! We tried Huggies overnights and it worked! I could hardly believe it ! I lookes at Publix for the Diaper Doublers but my Publix doesn't carry them. I will try another. Thanks!!

As others have mentioned, I used the "diaper doublers". They are at Publix on the aisle with the diapers, and do look a lot like a maxi pad for diapers, but they really worked.

Have you tried doublers? They are thick pads that can be placed inside the diaper to help absorb more liquid. Also, I don't know if you give him something to drink to help him go to sleep, but if you do, it may be a good idea to ween him from that habit.

I use the pampers cruisers during the day. Huggies overnights works very well for my 18 month old daughter. I buy them at Walgreens or at Publix.

K. - I used Huggies Overnight diapers and they worked great! I have a daughter. Also, limiting his fluid intake a few hours before bed will help him make it thru the night dryer. A friend of mine uses some type of diaper liner...she explained it as like a extra "pad" that can be put in the crotch of the diaper to help overnight....maybe call BabiesRUs to see if they carry anything like that....Good luck!

My personal experience with Pampers Cruisers ended up with the stuffing running out of the diaper and causing a horrible rash on my daughter's bottom, I would suggest regular Pampers and maybe a smaller size, if it wouldn't be uncomfortable for your son. My daughter can wear a size 5 but 4's still fit her and they protect her skin better.

Hi K., I had a similiar problem with my son, what I did was put him in the next size up in Pampers Cruisers than the normal size he wore during the day & put the Gerber vinyl/plastic pants over the diaper. This prevents leaking & seems to do the trick! The plastic pants can be found @ Babies R Us. Hope this helps!

Try using Overnights along with any diaper. I have only been able to find them at Publix. They are almost like a pad you put in their diaper. I have a son who had the same problem and they seemed to work pretty well with any diaper.
Good Luck.

My son is only 1 year old but he wets through the night alot too. And we have found that Parents Choice hold alot. I don't have to change him till he gets up in the morning. Maybe you can try those. They are at Walmart

Huggies supremes work very well. Our son is a soaker too. I use whatever is cheapest during the day and only the huggies at night.. they're wonderful!

If nothing else works, you could try cloth diapers. There are some called pocket diapers that you can put in a varying amount of absorbant liners. They're actually really easy to use. My daughter's 6 months old, and we've only used disposables when we travel. And actually on our last trip my husband insisted we take the cloth b/c he likes them so much. We wash them ourselves and she stays dry through the night and day and doesn't get rash. If you're interested, one of the websites I use is www.conttonbabies.com. Either way, good luck!
