C is almost 11 months old and in the past few nights has started waking up with a completely soaked diaper in the morning. She's currently in size 4 Pampers Baby Dry and I don't feel like it's time to size up in terms of fit, but her diapers are definitely full to the brim by morning, and sometimes throughout the day, as well. Suggestions? I meant to pick up some size 5s this weekend and forgot, of course.

Is she drinking more fluids? I'm sure you've already ruled this out so sorry for the silly question!
I wouldn't size up unless she is at the minimum weight for the next size. I made the mistake of doing that and ds takes monster poops. Needless to say there was poop everywhere in his swing one morning. It had also run out through the legs....soooo yeah lol.

Size 4s go up to like 27 lbs so it's unlikely she needs to move up...have you tried a size 4 in pampers extra protection? My son got leaks in baby dry starting at 9 months unless he wore extra protection.

I wouldn't size up either. I've had success with changing DS's diaper in the middle of the night because his diapers are also ridiculously full mid-night and he gets fussy. I change it and he drifts off to sleep shortly after. If trying other diapers doesn't work, maybe try changing her diaper if she doesn't get disturbed too much?

@winniebee: I think a different diaper will be the trick. She's definitely nowhere near 27 pounds.

@jessibear: what about an overnight diaper?
-
To be honest, I know next to nothing about different types of diapers. We've always used Pampers because my mom works at the local hospital and all employees get and AWESOME deal on diapers but all you can get is Pampers. They did just switch to Huggies but we haven't needed to order any since then. What are some good overnight diapers? I sort of assumed the Baby Dry was an overnight because it's supposed to last for 12 hours.

both huggies and pampers have overnight diapers, my son is a heavy wetter and I find he doesn't leak through his diaper overnight with the overnight diapers
