@birdofafeather: I stopped doing it around 3.5 months old.

ETA: for WET diapers, I stopped changing night diapers and switched to a more absorbent diaper for night time. I do change poop diapers ASAP.
Right around 3.5 months he started to sleep 3 hours, 2 hours, 1 hour, 45 minutes and I wouldn't change him those 3 dream feeds--I think it helped him sleep better to not rile him up after a night feeding, too.

@oliviaoblivia: wake her? I would never ever wake my LO for a diaper change. But when he is awake for a night feed I stopped changing him at 3.5 months.

@oliviaoblivia: That's pretty good.

I don't, unless he doesn't settle right back down. Usually he does, though, so I don't bother. We're going to start adding at least one extra insert into our CD, though, because twice this week he was soaked through to his sleep sack (he's a tummy sleeper), and I had to change the crib sheets because they were wet.

If DH goes in to check on him he'll usually change him and then bring him to me to nurse, but if it's not bothering him I don't bother.

ETA: We probably stopped doing it around 5 months.

@Running Elley: Same here! Evan would freak out the second he peed. He still does sometimes, but it's more of a closed-lip humming whine than the all-out scream it used to be. If it goes for TOO long he'll start to fuss, but it takes a LOT longer now to hit that point then it did when he was a month or two (or three or four) old.

LO doesn't care if he's wet or poopy in cloth or disposables but we stopped changing at night when his poops condensed and he stopped pooping at night. Probably around nine weeks I realized the change and stopped. We do cloth durin the day but use a disposable at night. He usually has one feeding and the dipe lasts roughly 530pm after bath until 7 am at wake up

I do the same as you and was just wondering about this. Good post !

She is totally cool with being in a wet diaper for hours and hours (I think!). She's a pretty heavy wetter, so I like to change it during her 4am feeding. Even from 4-7:30 it's soaked and heavy, so I change it to just be safe and prevent leaks.

I stopped at maybe 6 months? I can't remember. We switched from cloth at night to overnight disposables, because both my girls would rash in cloth if they were wet for that long (and with Ria sleeping through the night at a young age I sure wasn't going to wake her up to change a diaper!)

Heck no, she would scream the place down if I did. Her attitude is: "mummy, I woke you for FOOD not cleanliness. Get on it!". Ha.

I change dirty diapers if they're what's keeping him up at night like last night. LO had a 3 hour wake cycle last night brought on by a number of things. I changed a huge poopy diaper, then he calmed down more. My baby doesn't like poopy diapers at night!

I stopped around 10 weeks or so....he's been in an overnight diaper since then. Of course, if he woke up and I smelled poop, I'd change it, but wet diapers don't seem to bother him and don't give him diaper rash.....and it makes him made if I changed him before a feeding and he'd be wide awake if I changed him after.
