My 20 lb 10 month old has been in size 4 during the day for probably 2 months. We use the Pampers overnights (baby dry extra protection) up a size which is a size 5 for us! It seemed crazy when I put him in a size 5 overnight diaper. But it works!! The weight range means nothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585754 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 15:50:08 +0000 nana87 2585754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>the size guides are def off! lo is long and skinny and grows out of sizes/starts leaking well before she hits the upper weight limit. she's 25 lbs ish and in size 5s </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585720 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 15:16:59 +0000 sapphire 2585720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were definitely using size 4 by then.

We've been in the size 4 baby dry for a month now with no problems.</p> <p>Eta: I would suggest getting just a small package of the Huggies at first, DS seemed to have some reaction to them, where he turned really red where the diaper touched. I bought a big pack and couldn't return it because it was open. 😕 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585378 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 10:38:55 +0000 FaithFertility 2585378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: Also maybe too much diaper paste?!<br /> I saw another bee post on another thread about too much paste leading to a less absorbent diaper, and I just had a few nights of leaks and definitely think it was due to too much paste, as she had a rash and I was treating her with much more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585362 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 10:14:42 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2585362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Winterbee15: the weight guidelines are so weird! My kid is huge and just flew through the sizes. I just kept watching for leaks and fit. Also, buying some of next size isn't too risky since you can always save them! Aside from having to store them. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585361 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 10:11:55 +0000 Winterbee15 2585361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Huggies overnights and the inserts @youboots posted for DS and we haven't had a leak since we started that combo. (In case the Huggies alone don't work.) He's 25 pounds and in size 5's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585357 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:59:14 +0000 wrkbrk 2585357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Ha yes Cooper is chubby too. </p> <p>Thanks for all the help so quickly everyone!

Xander on the other hand was in 3s longer because he was so skinny! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585354 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:57:03 +0000 jape14 2585354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do Pampers Baby Dry extra protection (different from the regular baby dry, I think), and up a size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585351 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:54:39 +0000 youboots 2585351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got disposable inserts- solved everything. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00839749A/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1468421777&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=disposable+diaper+inserts&#038;pi=SX200_QL40" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00839749A/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1468421777&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=disposable+diaper+inserts&#038;pi=SX200_QL40</a> Size up so they fit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585350 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:54:03 +0000 wrkbrk 2585350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Maybe I am mis-remembering what weight size 3s go to!!!

Eventually we sized up in the Pampers Swaddlers during the day, but never had to size up in the Overnites (potty trained wearing size 4s and now wears a pull-up at night).</p> <p>Logan is 23 lbs and he's currently in size 4 for both, but Swaddlers during the day, Huggies Overnites at night. No issues yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585344 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:52:09 +0000 avivoca 2585344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: I did. I figured if she was ready for the next size at night then she would need it soon for daytime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585342 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:50:49 +0000 wrkbrk 2585342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Yay!

We always needed to go up way before she actually reached the weight limit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585340 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:50:04 +0000 Adira 2585340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: Yeah, I almost exclusively used Pampers diapers and even tried the Pampers nighttime ones (forget what they are called) up a size and I continuously had this issue of wetting through the diaper. Huggies Overnites up a size were the only thing that worked! I highly recommend them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585337 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:44:55 +0000 avivoca 2585337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, definitely go up a size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585336 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:44:10 +0000 wrkbrk 2585336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: I will look this up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585335 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:43:03 +0000 wrkbrk 2585335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Huggies are literally the only brand I havent tried! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-leaking-diaper#post-2585334 Wed, 13 Jul 2016 09:42:52 +0000 wrkbrk 2585334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby dry are supposed to be overnight.</p> <p>So you guys are saying go up to a size 4 just for nighttime even though the package says like 25 pounds +?
