newborn question... Is it back sweat or wee?

[wookiebreath]

We were using huggies at the time and found they were a horrible fit on our little lean man, so we switched to Baby Love. Problem solved! Hope you find a solution soon!

Thanks everyone for your responses... I think I can confirm that my problem is badly fitting nappies.

Just as I was about to change a pooey nappy this afternoon, my DS decided to do a wiz and I noticed some leakage coming out of the nappy. I think his little bum and legs are too small at this stage to make a decent seal (without pulling them so tight that they leave marks).

A quick call to grandma and we had a different brand of nappies promptly delivered (she would go to the end of the earth for kisses and cuddles with my DS ;p ). The new nappies are for slightly smaller babies (up to 4.5kg rather than 5kg) and are definitely not as wide as the other brand. He's got through a couple of sleeps now without any dramas and I'm hoping you lot have helped me find the solution!!! I'll repost if the wet back returns.

Thanks again for you help

Congrats on your little man!!

When the wet backs returns ... you will know it's time for a bigger nappy I learned that on a weekend away with a 3 month old dd, also learned that you can NEVER pack enough bedding

We had wet back issues with sposies too and the same brand you mentioned. When I changed to cloth it wasn't an issue anymore so I'm sure it was leakage. We also had leaking where the tabs crossed the front.
