I'll definitely keep that in mind, thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1900054 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:56:10 +0000 ValentineMommy 1900054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: If he starts leaking again, give it a shot. We use the same size, one right on top of the other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1900047 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:54:23 +0000 Adira 1900047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ValentineMommy: I've actually thought of doing that too, but just hadn't gotten that far in my experiments yet!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1900044 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:53:12 +0000 ValentineMommy 1900044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Yay! That's great you found something that works!!</p> <p>For the record, and I'm clearly late to the game, we use two diapers (one right on top of the other) and never have nighttime leaks that way. We had a ton of problems before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1900040 Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:50:56 +0000 Adira 1900040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm reporting back after much experimentation!</p> <p>Huggies Overnites, when actually put on tight enough (oops), resulted in NO LEAKS for three nights straight!! Then I switched to Pampers Extra Dry to try them out since I had them, and again, when put on tight enough, also NO LEAKS for three nights straight!!</p> <p>Thank you everyone for all your wonderful advice!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890277 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:21:38 +0000 Adira 1890277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Confetti: I didn't because when I sized up in the Pampers Baby Dry, they were WAY too big (although maybe I just didn't get them tight enough). The size 4s say they are for 22 - 37 lbs and Xander's less than 25 lbs, so I thought that size would be fine (he actually still wears size 3s during the day). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890265 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:14:08 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 1890265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: did you size up for your Huggies overnites? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890253 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:06:01 +0000 Adira 1890253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: I don't think I'm very good at doing that - I'll double-check that tonight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890246 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:03:04 +0000 Smurfette 1890246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: R sleeps on her belly too. We always make sure that the part in the front is higher then the back. I think it helps too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890130 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 11:01:11 +0000 Adira 1890130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: No, yeah, I knew what you meant. It's just that I already HAVE a size up in the Baby Dry, so I might as well try them again while I wait for my order of the Extra Protection to arrive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890096 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:48:50 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1890096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Not the Pampers Baby Dry, the Extra Protection. They are Pamper's version of overnight diapers. LO sleeps on his stomach a lot and so he's usually overflowing out of the top of his diaper in the front. The Extra Protection have zones that are different than the Baby Dry when they're standing up and walking around that help to absorb better. We size up in the Extra Protection overnight diapers and that did the trick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890082 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:42:26 +0000 Adira 1890082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: 7th Gen, okay! Adding that to my list of diapers to try!! Thanks! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890079 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:41:11 +0000 PrincessBaby 1890079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I have a belly sleeper too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890076 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:40:32 +0000 PrincessBaby 1890076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: We don't have a boy, but my LO soaks through her diaper EVERY night and it's exhausting changing sheets every day! She has like 900 pairs of pajamas just because she can only wear a set once before they're washing-machine bound. We used to use Pampers her whole life, and we've tried the overnight ones as well as the Huggies overnights. The Huggies overnight did better but still sometimes leak, and they have leaked when she's wearing them and just happened to pee a bunch all at once...Anyway, I ended up ordering 7th Generation Overnight Diapers on Amazon after reading reviews and decided to give them a try and I LOVE them. They have not leaked even once! And her diaper is not as gross in the morning? Like 500 lbs and sopping wet...Whatever is in those things just absorbs pee like crazy and it is so much nicer than Pampers or Huggies and I'm sold and switching over:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890067 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:35:31 +0000 Adira 1890067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: Oh, interesting! Maybe I'll have to try the Pampers Baby Dry in the size up again, but maybe I didn't get it tight enough last time. Guess I'll just have to keep experimenting until I find something that works! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890066 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:34:34 +0000 Adira 1890066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: Ugh, good luck. Xander's no where close to using the toilet, and considering how wet his before-bath diaper was, I don't even know if it would help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890064 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:33:21 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1890064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: We sized up in the Pampers Extra Protection when he started to leak out. I also make the diaper as tight as I can since he also doesn't come close to meeting the minimum size for the size up. Haven't had a problem since! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890062 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:32:55 +0000 swurlygurl 1890062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I think L holds it all evening too. Daycare changes her diaper at 3ish, and it's still pretty much dry when I put her to bed at 7. And she drinks a LOT. I might try getting her to use the toilet before bed or something... Not really potty training, just trying to get her to stop holding it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890061 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:32:12 +0000 Adira 1890061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@QueensBee: Darn belly sleepers! Maybe tonight I'll try the Huggies Overnight backwards, since I don't have any of the new Pampers yet... maybe that will work... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890055 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:30:32 +0000 QueensBee 1890055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: We are having the same issue too. I have to wash his crib sheets multiple times a week! Please let me know if you find a brand that works for Xander! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890053 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:29:49 +0000 Adira 1890053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: I didn't think he drank a LOT, but it kind of seems like he stores up all his liquids to pee out overnight or something, haha. He had a full diaper before his bath last night and then didn't drink any liquids after that, but still woke up wet this morning! It leaks out the top and his belly is wet. :(</p> <p>We had that same issue when we sized up in the Pampers Baby Dry diapers. It leaked out the leg and his entire legs and feet in his footie pjs were soaked. So gross. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890044 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:26:18 +0000 swurlygurl 1890044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Dang. Does he drink a lot of liquids before bedtime? I tried some new overnights on L this weekend and when I got her up in the morning even her SOCKS were soaked (footie pjs + socks). :meh: I'm starting to lose it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice/page/2#post-1890035 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 10:22:39 +0000 Adira 1890035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, just tried Huggies Overnight last night! They were definitely better than the Pampers Baby Dry, but still didn't work. So now I'm thinking I'll try the Pampers Extra Protection and if those don't work, it'll be time to invest in some inserts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888561 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 10:51:38 +0000 Applesandbananas 1888561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: that is brilliant! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888507 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 08:53:33 +0000 Smurfette 1888507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Huggies overnights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888467 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 07:12:07 +0000 travellingbee 1888467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've tried several brands but Huggies overnights work the best by far! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888448 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 05:30:07 +0000 bushelandapeck 1888448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for the Huggies Overnights! We bought those extra soaker pads too but haven't had to try them yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888443 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 05:22:14 +0000 Mamaof2 1888443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Confetti: I never had an issue- the diaper and pad were both soaked in the morning (and no leaks) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888426 Sat, 04 Oct 2014 01:52:44 +0000 erwoo 1888426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my oldest I used Pampers Extra Protection and one size up. The key to using one size up is to pull it higher when you put it on so there is no gap around the legs. With my youngest, he has a big butt and Pampers EP only goes up to size 6 so I started using Pampers Cruiser's size 7 diapers (only found on Amazon) and they have worked well. I think the only time that he leaks out is when I forget to pull the front up a little higher. I also have a zip off crib sheet (<a href="http://www.cloudsandstars.com/QuickZipCribSheets.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.cloudsandstars.com/QuickZipCribSheets.aspx</a>) and put another flat waterproof sheet under so it's easy to take it off to wash. I have two sets so when one is in the wash the other is on the crib. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-overflowing-overnight-diaper-advice#post-1888384 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 22:52:21 +0000 Corduroy 1888384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I posted something very similar two weeks ago. Since we switched to Huggies Overnights we haven't had any leaks or "poop soup" in the morning. I hope they work for you. </p>
