Suggestions for Night Time Diapers

Updated on April 20, 2008

My daughter is almost 14 months and we have never had an incident where she has urinated through her pjs until recently. I still breastfeed at night and she has been drinking more liquids throughout the day. I have gotten a larger size diaper and the Pampers Baby Dry for the night time diaper. However, she is still able to get her pjs fairly wet by the morning time when she wakes. Any tips on what to do to stop the leaking?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Well, our first step was to change to the Huggies overnight diapers. Like Melissa, I don't like Huggies, but the Pampers Baby Dry just wasn't doing the trick. We now have had leak-free nights! Keep your fingers crossed. Thank you all again for the fast and helpful advice. If she leaks through in the future, we will take it to the next suggestions that were given. Thanks!

Hi Miranda,

I have an 18 month old son whom I was having the same issue with. I now use Huggies Supreme diapers in one size bigger and this seems to help my son alot to not wet through onto his pjs.
Good Luck,

N.

I really don't like Huggies diapers, but we were having the same problem with our daughter right around 14 months. The only night time diapers I found at the store were Huggies & we've been using them for over a month without any leaks. I still use Pampers during the day, but the Huggies night time diapers work awesome for overnight!

Change her during the night.

Put a waterproof bed pad under her to catch the leaks and then you won't have to change and wash the entire bedding set each time.

It's great you are still breastfeeding. I did that too. She is growing, their pee gets larger in volume too. You can only get diapers per what will fit her. Just change her at night. That's what I do with my son, and my daughter prior. It didn't wake them. I just changed them in the dark, quietly and gently.

At night you can cut down on the liquids... but keep up with breastfeeding. Still the pee will come.

Good luck!

Huggies makes a night diaper and they work WONDERFUL!
My son is potty trained now and will not let me put diapers on him at night (he still wets at night time) so i use night pull ups which are nothing like the diapers but i use a plastic diaper cover over the pull up and that will keep him dry. So you can maybe use that too! I know they also make diaper liners (i never used them but i have heard about them and see them all the time) they are like maxi=pads but for inside the diaper. You can maybe try those too.
Good luck!

Hi
I had the same issue with my son. I used "diaper doublers" that I found at Albertsons (kinda like sanitary pads). I also added waterproof plastic pants over his diaper at night. I used the ones with some cotton lining to catch the extra, and just washed them daily.

scale back the liquids. They don't need that much to drink a day, they get most of it from their food, and you.
good luck

Huggies Overnight Diapers! They work GREAT. My daughter was wetting through her Pampers baby dry diapers every single night & we've only had a couple of leaks in the past several months with the overnight diapers.
