I have a 17 month old daughter that regularly sleeps about 10 to 12 hours a night. I am having a problem with her diapers holding all her pee. She ends up waking up in the morning and her pajamas and bed linens are soaked because her diaper couldn't hold all the pee from the night. We put her down with a clean diaper. I have tried Huggies Overnights but they are leaking through as well. Any advice? does anyone have another brand of diaper that works better? Thanks!
Pampers cruisers are great-I could count the numer of times we had a leaky diaper on my fingers. That is 12 hrs a night with no diaper change.
Pampers and huggies seem to do the trick for my son. He is in pampers baby dry now, he is 3 years old. Until you find ones that work for you, you might try using the plastic lined absorbency pads that hospitals use, CHUX pads. You can usually find them at a drug store in the incontinence section. You can lay them under your daughter to help protect the sheets so you don't have to wash the sheets as often and protect her mattress.
my niece is the same way...she is 18 months old and weighs 35 lbs. Needless to say her diapers never hold her pee. My sister buys size 6 in huggies, and tries to limint her intake of water and juice at nighttime. She has been setting an alarm for 6 hours after the baby goes down, changes her diaper, and goes back to bed. I know its a pain in the butt for your sleeping patterns, but it beats laundry every day on your childs bedding. You can also try the plastic pants that usually go over the cloth diapers, see if that helps, but it may give her a rash. There is a pee pee pad that you can get at Wal-mart or Target, it might help save the bedding and the mattress. I had 3 for my son when he was little and helped out a lot. 3 because he peed a lot and I didn't want to wash bedding constantly. Good luck!
Pampers Cruisers have been the best for us with my little one.
Also, when my daughter was little, I used to actually put her to sleep by 7:30 - 8 p.m. I went to bed by 10 or 11. I always checked her diapers before I went to sleep and usually ended up changing her at that time. She would sleep through it, which helped a lot!
Also, try not to give her liquids too close to bed time.
I hope this helps!
Hi
I had the same issue when my son was about 18months. I found these little diaper inserts (kinda look like sanitary pads). I put one or tow in his night diaper to catch the extra, and then I also put cotton lined plastic pants, found at babues r us, over that (to catch the extra extra). I usually had to wash the plastic pants daily, so buy a few pairs.
Good luck
why not put plastic pants over the diaper. that should catch it.
We love Pampers Cruisers. I think in all the time that our twins wore them we maybe had one leak which was actually our fault for putting it on incorrectly. LOL
Just get her a bigger size diaper. Thats how I know when my sons are getting too small. If she does fine throughout the day just get her a bigger size for at night.
I've also heard that Pampers hold more than generic. I've also heard other people with this problem will put two diapers on, one over the top (you could even do one size bigger over a size that fits) maybe that would help? good luck!
Does your daughter still get a bottle before bed? I had the same problem with my daughter until we stopped the before bed bottle.
My daughter has always had this issue. It seems to happen most often right around the time she is getting ready to go up to the next size anyway. At night, we put her in Pampers that are 1-2 sizes larger than her normal day diapers just to hold all the fluid. We also found that the generic brands just don’t hold as much fluid. They are fine during the day, but haven’t worked for her at night. Hope this helps!
