DD waking up soaked through - what's going on??

[nagromeyk]

those new nappies with an overnight nappy are called Sorbies. Have been meaning to try them but I don't know where to get them from

Sorbies are only available from Coles or IGA supermarkets.

I purchased a 'sample' pack the other day from Coles. They're only $2.95 - has 6 nappies it in, 4 day and 2 night ones and was quite impressed! So impressed that I actually brought a bigger pack for DS. The night one I have found that he is still peeing like he usually does but the nappy isnt as heavy and as bulky so the absorbency must be good. They say they have 12-hour protection.

Maybe give them a go?? You're not going to know if it will work for your situation unless you try them.

It might be that she is starting to get some bladder control overnight and does a big wee in the morning as she wakes up.

If this is the case the nappy can't cope with the big influx of urine all at once.

I'm thinking this is the case. Is she showing any signs of TTing readiness other than this? It could be worth checking out (just in time for summer = toilet training season)! LOL

Thanks everyone.

I've started using the night time Sorbies with her and they have so far been brilliant (touch wood!).

Hisista & Marydean - I've been trying very gently over the last few weeks with TT. She has definitely show a lot of signs of readiness. I've found it too difficult to deal with TTing her while dealing with a very clingy 7 month old so will put in a big effort over Christmas when DH is off work for a bit.

Mel - I used to have her in cloth nappies but she got a really persistent fungal infection. The poor thing is having to have steroid creams, fungal creams, nappy creams in huge doses to keep it under control and that was messing too much with the absorbency of my MCNs. Very annoying when I had just bought another huge stash so DD#2 was cloth bummed too. The MCNs I had for DD#1 don't fit DD#2 very well at all so I have beautiful, almost brand new nappies that neither baby can wear!!

Wow that really sucks!! Pop em on B4B and share the cloth love

"B4B"?? What's that? I'd love to get some money back for them. Some of them have literally never been used.

not a big fan of huggies here either, jaylen leaks through them, but i love the aldi brand! jay sleeps 12-14 hrs a night and never leaks through them
