My LO pees through his diaper everynight - I've tried Pampers 12 hour, Pampers Extra Protection and BumGenius with a doubler.
Anyone else have a heavy overnight wetter? How do you keep them dry?

I don't know. LO did this last night for the first time. It was only 8 hours, but she had pee all over her swaddle and up her back. I'm hoping this was a one time deal.

Ugh. My LO does this several times a week. I'm currently using Huggies (we cloth diaper during the day) and have tried Pampers and Luvs too. I'm subscribing to see if anyone else has ideas!

It used to be just a few times a week and now it is everynight!
Regualr Huggies or the Overnights?

Regular Huggies but they say 12 hour protection on them. I'm hesitating on buying anything else because we only use one a day and I want to use these up first. I think I might try the overnights next... LO is just barely at size 3, so I think that's part of the problem.

My little guy started doing this last week. I ended up going up a diaper size and that fixed the problem. I was hesitant because he's only 17 lbs so he's at the low end of the size 3 weight and I went up to size 4, but I just cinched the waist up. I still use size 3 during the day though.

Try going up a size in the diapers. C wears size 3 during the day and size 4 at night.

For cloth the only thing that worked for my son was a fitted with a cover. It was awesome.

@pelikila: I've thought about trying that. My sister does that with her twins and swears by it. Maybe I'll pick up a couple today...

@Orvis18: My favorites are Thirsties Fab Fitted (with or with out a hemp booster) and Tots Bots Bamboozle with Blueberry covers. If you are worried about wicking moisture away from skin, pick up a package of fleece liners like the kind Bummis or Swaddlebees makes. Just lay one in the diaper and you are good to go.

@pelikila: Thank you for this! Hoping I can pick up some help insets today!
Would regular polar fleece work?

@littlebittyhouse: Regular polar fleece should work but I personally haven't tried it so I can't vouch for certain. Good luck! My son was never leak free with a pocket diaper no matter what we did but fitteds work wonders so if the hemp insert doesn't fix it, I'd definitely consider trying a fitted.

I picked up an Itti Bitti Boo fitted today and a Swaddlebees Capri cover. I'm prepping it now (might not be done until tomorrow) and will report back about how it works. I have some fleece I can put over it, but I'm going to try it on its own first.
