Baby wakes up wet......

Posted: Sun, Jul 27 2008, 9:33 pm Post subject: Baby wakes up wet......

Im so frustrated, every single morning and most afternoons when my 13 months old wakes up he is soaked through!!!
I have tried chaniging the size and the brand of the pamper yet it hasnt helped, after every long period of sleep shes wet, soaking wet!
I give her a bottle in her bed which she drinks just before she goes to sleep which seems fair as she has to keep hyderated in this hot weather, I change her right befroe bedtime and waking her in middle of the night to change her wouldnt work as I tried that and her night was over.
I really need some ideas and help its so frudtarating having to change her blanket, sheets and clothes so often.

have you tried double-diapering? if not, how about those waterproof diaper covers used for cloth diapers?

can you push up that pre-bed bottle a little bit (like 45 min)? If they still drink well, it may not hurt their hydration not having it the second before bed.

I second double diapering, or getting the inserts for more absorbancy....or the covers..

I have the same problem with my 2 kids.
the only thing that works is Huggies Overnight diapers.
I have tried every brand, and this one works. try it. Smile

I had the same problem with one of my kids, a friend recommended something called "Diaper Doublers," sold in drugstores in the diaper section. It is a little strange looking (looks like a sanitary napkin) but definitely solved the problem.

we double the huggies overnight diapers. both twins. EVERY night. and if they wake up during the night we change their first diaper and put the dry top diaper back on top.

STILLLLLL my daughter manages to wet through to her onesie and sheet, but only 2-3 times a week now and not every night. And my boy's onesie and sheet stay dry-- yay!

I hear ya--- it's tough! The worst part is the exploding urine filled crystals that burst through the top of the diaper.
