Please help! Everything leaks!

[sasha]

Hi everyone, just thought I'd add an update to this as we've had some success and I thought someone else might find the information useful.

Overnight I've been alternating my BBH and my two Mandy Mac hemp fitteds with Mother-Ease covers... was getting some leakage with them but have since bought a bigger cover (large instead of med) and it's GREAT fit, so that's what the problem was.

I got some microfleece liners and they're fantastic, really make a difference to how damp it gets next to his skin.

It wasn't just overnight that I found he was leaking, but also in the mornings. I've since realised (by keeping my eyes open - sometimes stuff is so obvious, isn't it?!) that he wees most in the am when he gets up. So when he gets up and has his morning bottle, I wait a bit (for the inevitable poo LOL) and afterwards I change him into a Haute in which I put two bamboo inserts (I leave out the microfibre completely). They seem to fit best around his legs and tum, and then I change him again before he has his nap, which is about 2 hours after he first gets up.

Generally then there's no problem for the rest of the day, as long as he's changed every couple of hours. I just needed to pay more attention to when he needed more absorbancy - and the bamboo is just a lifesaver! So thanks again for everyone's help and I hope my results might be able to help someone else as well!

I only just read this now, so glad your getting it sorted.
I was going to suggest microfleece also for going against his skin, and mentioned that when my DS was about yours age, we realised that he seemed to be mostly saving up and doing an enormous pee as soon as he`d start to wake - so then we knew we just has to get in there pronto in the morning to change him.
