    After a good night time nappy

    Since DD was born I've just used terry cloth nappies and wool covers for overnight (terry cloth & PUL cover during the day). The last month or so though she has been wetting quite heavily overnight and wakes with damp pants/soaked areas. Not sure if my wool covers are failing a bit, I have a BBH old style wool cover and another different cover. The cloth nappies are usually completely soaked though.
    So, I'd like to get a couple of proper night time MCN's, hoping that they might be a bit more absorbent and she wont have wet pj's all the time.
    What do you recommend? She is fairly skinny, not really a chubba bubba. How many would you recommend to buy? At the moment I do a load of nappies every 2-3 days.

    I've always been a fan of snoozywuns (by widdlewuns), genesa forge super super trim nights, fluffy bubs and nicnaps.

    Eta - and I always had about 5 or 6 per child, cos they always did a poo in at least 1 a week before going to bed!

    I like the Genessa Forge super super trim night nappies (17 layers of bamboo- good for super wee-ers like my DS) in the side snap option - allows for changes in legs and tummy (DS has a big belly at times). I have 5 of them for DS and I wash about every 2 days so I usually have at least two dry at any one time and usually one or two drying at the same time.

    I'm another Genessa Forge SSTNN lover.
    I had a bonibuns night nappy which was OK, or other wise I used a superboosted BBH bamboo, but the poor little guy could hardly walk.
    I've always had 4 nns...just incase.

    I love Twinklelily Supernights. They have side snaps so are great for skinny or chubbier bubs. I have 4 of these, but could do with another 1 or 2 (almost nappy hunt time ).
    I also have a sandman but find it's very wide in the crotch. I only use it if DD has done a poo in one of her supernights.

    Does the TL need a cover?

    Yes it does. She makes them too - really good interlock ones also side snapping. The nappy can be saturated, but the cover and DD's pjs are fine.

    I have mostly Snoozywuns and Maz Nights. What also worked for me until he got to about 2.5yrs was BBH but with 2 of the long inserts instead of 1 long 1 short, ITMS? And then a fleece cover (like a maz cover)

    I have a TL cover. Love it! I just wondered if she made the cover into the NN iykwim
