    Question advice for mcn for baby boy

    hi girls,
    Hope someone can help.
    I have a nearly 5 month old baby boy who all the sudden is soaking through his bumgenius and babybeehind-like (can't remember the brand but very similar) pocket mcns.
    I've used boosters but doesn't seem to help. we had to do a full change 3 times last night and it's waking bubbee up (hence he had a 3.5hr sleep this morn to make up for lost time last night! brh).

    He's 25th percentile for weight
    but 90th for height... he's long and thin in other words.

    So can anyone recommend a mcn that worked well on their long, thin heavy wetter?

    We are going to try sposies over night for a few nights to see if that helps. But all i can surmise is he must have grown somehow to make the nappies ill fitting all the sudden, that or started peeing A LOT more.

    thanks in advance.

    You need a night nappy hun. They're a bit exxie compared to day nappies but worth it.
    My long thin (97th perc for lenth and 3rd per weight) little guy needs something like a Genessa Forge Super Trim Super Night nappy otherwise the Bonnibums night nappy is a good fit too.
    I've tried a Sandmans night nappy as they are highly recommended, but DS just couldn't hold it up lol.
    I've also got a Sandy's and that it pretty good too.

    Hi Grub,

    Perhaps your nappies are due for a strip wash - might help just a little bit. Ahh the long tall boy - DS is 99th %ile for height and just above 50th%ile for weight. He's 8 month and most of his Size 0 onesie suits don't do up under his crotch!

    For night nappies we are using BBH fitted bamboo with extra tri fold booster and a PUL cover at present.

    How did you go grub?
    I really like the side snappers on my little guy because I can do the legs and waist up to different snaps so it fits better.

    Sorry to hijack, but Kim do you find the side snappers difficult to put on a wriggly little man?
