Night Nappy for Very Heavy Wetter?

c.m.c · May 23rd, 2011, 16:17 PM

hi all,

i am sure there have prob been other threads on this topic but i was wondering about the best night nappy for my LO,

she is a very heavy wetter and would need a night nappy to last 12 hours-

i dont mind trying new nappies but i own a lot of flip, organics, stay dry and have LL boosters too....

what works well for your LO's???

My LO is a very heavy wetter overnight [can outpee a sposie] and we use Little Gumnut, Wild Child and Baby Beehinds night nappies

I don't have any Flips so not sure what they're like but there's absolutely no way a BG Organic would be absorbent enough for nights for us.

i was actually looking at the little gumnuts last night but didnt want to take the plunge yet- wanted advice from yourselves- i might try some of these-

flip organics are meant to do all night but they would def not last my lo that long!!!

When you say 'very heavy wetter' how exactly do you mean? Maybe tell us what nappies you have tried and how long they lasted. I've noticed a lot of people recently saying 'my LO is SUCH a heavy wetter' and then saying how much they wee and I just consider that normal not heavy! I'm not doubting you at all, I just don't have much faith in the term 'heavy wetter' anymore

.

If she is what I would consider a heavy wetter, I don't think any of what you listed will work or be boostable to last overnight; you would need a proper night nappy.

No way a flip organic would last all night unless LO hardly pees at all!

I posted on that other thread yesterday or whenever about the slinky minki fleece pockets, I really think they would work and you could stuff with 2 flip organic inserts and a stay dry on the top of the pocket (not in it) that way you're only having to buy the outer and can use what you've got.

well i suppose shes not a 'very' heavy wetter but i tried a bright star baby nappy and she was soaked after 1.5hours- a flip stay dry with a LL booster will do us 3 hours- its not completely soaking- but couldnt really get much longer out of it-

i only know a few people who use cloth and they seem to get more from these than my LO>.>>> do you this is normal enough?? when she wakes in the morning- i have to lift her out of her cot carefully and not touch her bum as her sposie will leak up her back its so full- its like- get her out and into cloth asap!!!!

kawaii uses one organic with a stay dry on top for 12 hours- but i def wouldnt get 12 hours with that- i guess im going to have the take the plunge and try- i am def planning on getting one of those minki's you quoted and maybe try the 2 organics and stay dry on top- i just dont want to spend a fortune to get there

thank you SBB

Sammuel would leak out of a sposie overnight in less than 12 hours, more like 8-9 hours! So if it works for him I'm sure it will work for Ava.

Could you try a flip with 2 organic and one stay dry?! It probably wouldn't do up

I was really worried and it took me ages to take the plunge with night nappies. We've had a couple of leaks but now we've got it sussed it's dead easy!

Overnight you really need a 2 part system - a nappy and wrap is far more wetproof than any other system, as it means you can boost as much as you need to. I always just used 2 nappies, with a large nappy cover, but you could use any absorbent nappy with a night time booster pad, covered by a larger size nappy cover. These ones are incredible! I don't think a single person who has tried these to boost night nappies has not said how amazing they are!

And I've got 2 of those coming so I will hopefully be able to confirm soon!!
