He's always been really sensitive when it comes to his diaper. He wants it changed immediately! Now that he's older, we're able to go longer stretches. At night, I only change his diaper if he wakes up to eat. Most of the time, he sleeps but sometimes he'll wake up for one feed (it depends on how our day went and how many feeds he got in). He usually goes 12 hours without a change. The longest he's gone is 14 and we haven't had any issues. FWIW, we use Pampers baby dry diapers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166994 Wed, 23 May 2012 23:05:44 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 166994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I change it every time it is dirty, even in the middle of the night! Right now I change it about 3 times a night and every 3 hours or so during the day. She is only 9 days old so she is going #2 a lot!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166986 Wed, 23 May 2012 22:32:18 +0000 Mrsbells 166986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my baby is only a month old, so the longest is about 4 hours </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166984 Wed, 23 May 2012 22:24:34 +0000 sulli301 166984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD doesn't get changes if she sleeps through the night, usually 10-12 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166946 Wed, 23 May 2012 21:08:46 +0000 chopsuey 166946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't change in the middle of the night.. the longest we've gone is probably 14 hours? No rashes yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166935 Wed, 23 May 2012 20:55:58 +0000 Andrea 166935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we always changed it when she woke up. But she stopped waking at 8 weeks so we have not changed it since so she has it on for 12+ hours. No rashes yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166928 Wed, 23 May 2012 20:49:46 +0000 mrs. wagon 166928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we went back and forth on this, especially since Wagon Jr. started sleeping thru the night so early. For a while when he was having diaper rash problems we'd change him around midnight and he was ok with going right back to sleep. but we never go in there now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-longest-time-between-diaper-changes#post-166926 Wed, 23 May 2012 20:47:25 +0000 miranlee 166926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When LO wakes up in the middle of the night, I don't always change her diaper. So, that means that she may go 11 or 12 hours between diaper changes. Is that too long? I was just worried about overstimulating her, leading to difficulty going back to sleep. But it also makes me feel like mean mommy. I wouldnt want to go that long in a wet diaper! </p> <p>Whats the longest stretch between diaper changes for your LO? </p>
