Waking Up Wet Through, Any Suggestions?

[Ginger]

Hi, the last 3 nights my ds1 has woken up completely saturated- pyjama bottoms, sheets!! i think he's been drinking a lot due to the 'heatwave' we're experiencing here atm, but this is ridiculuos. we've been using Aldi x-large sposies, we've never had a problem with these before. Any suggestions?? i'm tired of washing sheets every morning

do u let him take a drink to bed?? we found DD1 wet through when she took drinks to bed in aldi or cheaper than huggies nappies

[AnyDream]

Ginger, I use a regular large sposie lined with an adult incontinence pad (!!!) They are plain unsticky ones and I buy them at a nappy seconds retailer. When we run out, we creep in and change her nappy last thing before we go to bed...seems to help. FWIW sometimes it's a sign they are ready to TT - "holding it in" then going in one big shot, kwim?

[Ginger]

skybie- yes we do let him take a drink to bed. it's a bit of a sleep-cue for him so i don't think i can change that right now, unfortunately.

md- hhmmm, that's a good idea. i have no idea where to even start with TT...maybe i need to go and do some reading!

I've got a friend who does double nappies for exactly the same reason, and she says it works a treat....

[Ginger]

wow, that just seems so bulky iykwim? thanks for the suggestion, miss excited!

i'm sending dh up to get pizza for dinner and i'm gonna tell him to pop into iga and grab some huggies and see how they go tonight.

ive at times gone the cheaper brands if they were on special etc...and always had H leaking thru at night....these mistakes have taught me stick to what you know...always do huggies at night....

[Miss E]

wow, that just seems so bulky iykwim?.

That's exactly what I thought when she told me, but apparently it works for them...

Perhaps it is the nappies you're using?

We've actually just swapped over from Huggies to Babyloves as I found that both Anelise & DS2 were leaking through their nappies... it is crazy because both DH & I are fanatical about nappy changes.
I have used Huggies on all of my children and this is really the first time I have changed brands. I am really, really disappointed in huggies nappies now

[Ginger]

i used huggies last night and it made no difference. had to get up at 5am and change him as he had wet right through again.

maybe pop a PUL nappy cover over the nappy, i have a large that may fit him, let me know and i can either post it up or bring it up to you

[Ginger]

Olive- i have no idea what a PUL is but i like the sound of it! LOL we'll organise a meet up before xmas with the guni and janie as well xoxo

[Olive]

sounds good hun!
