DD is day trained, but has still been wearing diapers for naps and night time. we're about to run out of diapers so wondering if i should try pull ups for sleep or if that's just a waste of $ and should just ride it out with diapers until she's dry overnight/naps.
did you move to pull ups once your LO was training/day trained, stick with diapers or just go straight to undies all together.

We stuck with diapers. Never used pull ups. All the reviews I read talked about overnight leaks and I wasn't interested in extra laundry.

We use pull-ups, even though my son seems to be waking up dry consistently because I WOH and do not want to deal with laundry mid week.

We used pull ups for a couple weeks then switched to underwear!
Dd stayed dry overnight almost immediately though.
I would do whatever's more convenient/cheaper

@MamaG: did you wait until your kiddo was dry and switched to undies?

@chopsuey: she is definitely not close to dry overnight, almost seems to be peeing more overnight than a couple weeks ago, so i was wondering if the diaper was hindering her? but not really something i want to take a chance on, i guess!

Straight to underwear. Took a night of wetting the bed and then she's been fine since.

@birdofafeather: a woman I know said she put her daughter in underwear and she had to deal with a wet bed a couple times, but her daughter learned to hold it!

We used a combo of cloth diapers and disposable diapers at night. We had leaks with regular pullups and I didn't want to buy night pullups.

Stuck with diapers. Pull ups have a tendency to leak with that much pee overnight, and you can't really "learn" to hold anything overnight.

Can you get "nappy pants" in the States? We moved to nappy pants (a combo of a regular nappy but without grip tabs and just like undies) because A can take them on and off and they're just easier all round.

We took a child led approach. We switched to day underwear at about 27 months. We dropped nap diapers about 4 months later. And it took about 6 more months to drop overnight diapers. We had a nearly year long process.
Once I was really over the night diapers we made a deal. Seven dry nights in a row and no more diapers.

@birdofafeather: we do diapers. I tried pull-ups, but they don't feel any different than diapers to her, and they cost more. I know that if we switched to undies, she would pee a few times and then learn to hold it, but I'm not ready for the middle of the night sheet changes.
