Overnight Toddler Diaper Solutions
Hello,
I was wondering what others use for overnight diapers. My 2.5 yr old son's PJ's are often very wet in the morning. We've tried Huggies overnights and diaper duos, which worked with some success, but I can no longer find them in the store. Any suggestions?? Thanks!
So What Happened?™
Thank you all for the great suggestions! The last few nights I have used a regular maxi pad and it seems to be working. I had moved from the size 5 to size 6 diapers a little while ago as well. Also, recently saw the Ultra Absorbant Pampers at BJ's and wasn't sure if it was worth the $40 purchase, but now that someone has verified their usefullness, I just might try them. I'd love to try the potty thing, but he absolutely refuses, so don't want to push it too much just yet...I'll have to come up with a good bribe, um reward. Thank you all and happy holidays!

They still have Diaper Doublers at Stop and Shop in Raynham/Taunton anyway. If you still cannot find them anywhere near you why don't you just use maxi pads? Use them the same way you did the duos. I have also tried the rubber pants you use for cloth diapers and that has helped too!

I used the Huggies overnights for my first child and they worked fine. With my second child, now 2.5 also..... I do not use a overnight diaper. What we do, is this... she started toilet training, while it isnt going so well, just before bed, we do have her sit on the toilet and have her empty her bladder. So just by not having that extra urine in her during the night, her diapers dont get too full by morning ....... Perhaps try sitting him on the toilet before bed if you dont already, and also limit his drinks after 5pm. Good luck

Try Pull-Ups (Night Time ones). Also, Good Nights brand. Both work well with my son and we no longer have leaks at night.

I finally discovered that you can still find the Huggies Overnights at Stop & Shop and at Babies 'R Us. I don't know if you have one near you, but it might be worth checkign into.

Hi D.,
I have a 2 1/2 year old boy as well and for a while he was waking up with a wet bed/pajamas. So, we bought the next size up (size 6) in Pampers Cruisers just for nighttime. It worked....we haven't had a wed bed since! Good luck.
