    Yeah DS leaked up the back when he was a newborn, even though his doodle was down. But he has a skinny waist and skinny legs so I had to make sure the nappy was on tight and the frills pulled out around the legs. It only completely stopped when we went up from the newborn size nappies to the crawlers.

    pull them really tight around the waist at night time and around the legs, and make sure you pull the frilly bits out around the legs. Hopefully that will work

    Otherwise go up a size. Very common problem with boys it would seem

    Liebling did this sometimes with sposies, but not cloth.

    Can you take the unopened pack back to the shop and exchange? Or do you know any other mum who would need it?

    still use them during the day, perhaps just get the nex size up for the night & see how that goes. DS was out of nb in like a week or two....it happened so quick it that's why I didn't first realise. Then I remember the MCHN saying something & what do you know!!! And not a moment too soon, I recall one night he wet through so much my Dad was washing clohes for me LOL!!
