Overnight help

[ellie]

E (almost 8 months) is still nursing at night, but it would be awesome to not change her. She currently wears large GMD fitteds at night and I have to change her after about 6 hours. Last night I accidentally went 8hrs and she was soaked.. Jammies and sheets etc.

I've tried doubling with a prefold, but I still have to change her midway so it didn't seem worth the bulk. Are there any overnight diapers that will hold that much pee?? Or am I stuck changing her until she stops night nursing??

Please say I get to buy stuff

SBish.

A good fitted. I use TT, but some recommend Sbish.

You could also try adding hemp, but I don't think that will help you for the entire night.

[sarenu]

And yes a good fitted is worth the money. I do soak mine in the morning in warm water.

sbish or tt. we can also use the gmd workhorse with 2 of their hemp doublers in a pinch. it lasts 12 hrs.

Yes, oh my gosh this. I finally got a few because E was leaking out the legs of her freetimes overnight (I don't change overnight unless she poops) and they hold SO much! I love them. Definitely worth the cost.

I use a GMD workhorse paired with a flip insert and thirsties hemp insert. It's bulky but holds 12+ hours.

At about the one year mark I had to start adding absorbency to DS's night diapers (he STTN about 50% of the time at that age). We use flats. I fold together two flat diapers and add a doubler (Thirsties hemp or velour), and that is pretty leak proof. It's a massive night diaper, but I let out the rise snaps on the Thirsties DuoWraps and it works great.

Fitteds (TTs or S'bish) with wool covers. I use TTNNs and most nights DS doesn't fill one up but occasionally he will.

I'm in the weird boat of not liking Sbish. They hold a lot but the fabric gets almost hard when it's soaked. I like a Tots Bots fitted paired with Geffen baby hemp.

Sorry, what is Sbish? or TT? Sorry, I'm new!

Sustainablebabyish by Sloomb, and Twinkie Tush.

We have one of the new-ish Bummis dimple diapers and I really like it for how trim it is, but we'll have to see how it fits in the future, because the rise is perfect now and it's all the way unsnapped, so if M stretches out any more it won't work. But I know baby bodies change a lot, so I'll reserve judgement. For right now I love it because it's trim and holds a lot. The end.

ETA I also have one TT that we love, and a snapless S'bish that we also love but I never reach for because it's so hard to pin with DS trying to roll over constantly.

I'm still pretty new to CD but my experience with a few other brands:

Kissaluvs fitted + cover = Awesome
Kissaluvs super soaker doublers are great too for added protection

Thirsties duo fab fitted + cover = coin toss
I generally stuff something in these but it gets really bulky!

Imagine bamboo fitted + cover = good
Not the best fit, works

My LO is 10 months, wears his diaper 9-12 hours overnight, fairly heavy wetter and nurses overnight.

[secondaryPULSE]

Our heavy wetter wore a sized up prefold (brown edge GMD) with two hemp inserts topped with a Disana wool soaker.

I've been using a large bamboo flat, folded with a FST, and some sort of help insert. Some nights the diaper is soaked, sometimes only half of it is wet. washes up well. Even with my toddler I still don't have to do anything extra in the morning. No stink or rashes.

Kissas fitted organic with a hemp insert if its that much pee

[Lrachelle80]

What kind of cover are you using? Wool is always the best for that, I've found. We use a fitted (like Twinkie Tush or similar) and then I add a few doublers to it. It's a giant booty but it works.

This is very similar to our setup, which is A pad folded FST with a Thirties hemp insert.

ETA: hit post too soon

I have an Sbish, but I just bought a new diaper that is hemp/bamboo fitted by Ecoable. I love it! It is so soft and it is OS, unlike the SBish.
