Need advice for a good nighttime MCN

[Acacia]

I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to search through the threads properly before posting this, as I'm sure this question has been posed many times before and I'm likely to find an answer, but I'm hoping no one will mind giving me advice they've given before!

DD is in MCNs during the day and she wears a disposable at night, for a full 12+ hours, and has done so for many months. I didn't do a lot of research, and there's not a huge range available over here in the UK unless you do lots of research, so DD has been in Bamboozles (Totsbots) and Bamboozles only since she was 8-10 weeks old. The thing is I'm really happy with them (despite having no means of comparison!), and she's now just starting in Size 2. I thought that when starting size 2 it would be a good opportunity to try getting her in cloth at night. I can't remember why I decided to have her in sposies at night, but I think it might have been because when she started sleeping through which wasn't long after I started MCN I was concerned she would wet through and didn't want to wake her just to change her, and decided not to bother with it at that time (too tired!)

Anyway, so I put her in a Bamboozle at night a few times recently, having just started wearing size 2s, and each time she has wet through by morning. She doesn't mind this at all as she doesn't wake up or call out, but I do mind!

I've tried her with different wraps to help keep in the moisture, I've tried her with one, then two boosters plus fleece liners, and still she's wetting through! I've been told that Bamboozles are meant to be fairly good as night nappies, especially with a booster, but it's obviously not working for us.

Sooo...

I'm wondering if she'd be considered a heavy night wetter as a result, and in which case, can anyone suggest a good night nappy or set up that I could add to my Bamboozles to stop her wetting through at night? I don't have the time to do oodles of research, and would just really appreciate some advice from people that know what they're doing with MCNs, as I don't know what I'm doing lol!

Thanks heaps in advance,

Miss C

i have tried nearly every NN under the fluffy sun ! the best ones in this house are Keester Kovers and BBH minky magic alls with an extra night booster , i use them on both kids (almost 3 and almost 1) and never had a wet thru or leaks!

both these options are cheap compared to some NN

I wouldnt class bamboozles as a good NN i dont think they are thick enough IMO and they are more like bamboo knit terry than thick 100% bamboo .. so its prolly more the nappy than DD ... babes only pee when they are awake , so maybe she save it all for the lighter sleep in the morning and pees heaps , and often , so the nappy wouldnt have time to soak it all up , it just gets sodden very qickly , rather than one pee , then a break to absorb than another pee and a few hours in between to absorb ... KWIM ?

unless you notice in the day that DD is a heavy wetter .

if you want , i can grab you some and post them over the pond ???

I think Genesa Forge super nights are great or the super super night even if your bub is a super heavy wetter. We love the side snappers the best.
