We use pampers and it's fine

We tend to size up or atleast so the + option in the pants. Found sainsbury and tesco are fine. Also is baby warm enough? as being cold might increase the wees

We use Sainsbury’s and never had a issue

We have a boy stomach sleeper and use pampers for night. I also use a vest and sleep suit that has abit of room as I found if they’re a snug fit round the poppers it doesn’t leave space for the nappy to expand causing leaks. If he leaks like that then it’s time to size up in nappies.

Pampers nappy pants (pull up ones). We use Fred & Flo the rest of the time but Pampers is the only brand that lives up to the claim to last 12 hours. We haven’t had a night time leak since we started using them and we used to have leaks almost every night.

Pull ups definitely!! We were having leaks once my baby became a stomach sleeper and completely stopped when we switched to pull ups

@Louise wow I’ve never heard this 🤔the room is 18c and he’s in a vest, sleep suit and a 2.5 tog sleeping bag. I think he’s arm enough 🤷🏼‍♀️

@Emily this is probably the one thing I haven’t tried! Going to put him in pulls ups tonight! 🤞🏻

@Anke pampers nappies were no good but haven’t tried the pulls ups, will give them a go!

@Hannah I have tried this but thinking maybe I should try even bigger just in case

@Rebecca sainsburys have been fine for us in the day and naps but not overnight

Asda and size up

My little man’s Nappies always leaked then I started putting vest extenders on the poppers of his vests which helps the nappy to expand easier with wee and stopped the leaking.

Pampers haven't let us down yet! Just make sure you're using the right size for their weight

1am 👋🏻 pull ups lasted less time than the nappies do 😭 😴 Have put him in a nappy now but left vest poppers undone to see if that helps get us through til morning.🤦🏼‍♀️

Annnd 5.30, nappy with no poppers done up didn’t work either. This is such a stupid problem but it’s really getting to me. It’s ruining both of our sleep. Genuinely don’t know what else to try as I’m not really sure what the problem is. I’ve already tried sizing up the nappies and tried Aldi, Tesco, Sainsbury’s and pampers. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Is the sizing definitely right? My little boy wasn’t really leaking often but I also wanted him to be more comfortable as he moves around a lot at night! I’ve now swapped to pampers baby dry nappy pants at night time and he seems much comfier! ☺️, they’re almost always on offer too so worth grabbing a pack to give them a go! x

Eek just seen your updates! Is he having too much milk before bed? If he’s weeing that much throughout the night and already leaking by 1am perhaps it’s linked?! That’s a tough one. I used to like Morrisons size 3’s but haven’t had as much luck with their size 4’s. What size pull ups did you try, 4’s? Perhaps a different brand of pull ups? Supermarkets do their own. Also make sure his bits and bobs are pointing down and not to the sides! 😂 xx

My little girl is a belly sleeper and I use Sainsbury’s. Never had a leak ☺️

Put the nappy on backwards x

Sizing up gives more room for the wee to escape, get bubba weighed if you haven't recently to make sure you're using the right size nappy. My LO sleeps on his front all night, wakes several times for more boob over night and will be in the same nappy from 7pm until 8am. We're over 10.5kgs in size 4 pampers xx

@Naomi he does have a 7oz bottle before bed but don’t most babies have a bottle before bed?

@Becky I’ve not had him weighed recently, I will do that. I’ve been using size 4+ from Tesco. It looks like it’s the right fit but might be worth weighing him to be sure.

Yes! I just wasn’t sure how much he had and whether it was 8/9oz but 7oz is pretty average, my little boy has 4-6oz depending on the day! Was just a thought, sorry I can’t be more help! I have seen people say online before to try a nappy backwards but I can’t comment on that x

Also worth checking that the frills are out on the nappies - I didn't know this when he was newborn and we had leaks allllll the time where it wasn't trapped and it just soaked right through. Other than that I've got no other suggestions for you! Hope you find a solution soon!! xx

Sainsburys nappies in size 4+. Shes in size 4 nappy pants in the day so technically sizing up for nightime.

@Becky yep frills are out. It leaks upwards, sometimes all the way up to his chest! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Are you making sure his Willy is pointing downwards when you put nappy on? X

Lidl nappies

@Jayne yep checked this 👍🏻

Asda or Sainsbury’s, every time he’s ever had a leak I’ve sized up and that’s fixed the issue. If he’s a bit more chunky go for Sainsbury’s I’ve found they fit bigger x

Another update as I imagine you’re all incredibly invested in this and you’ve thought of nothing else for days 😂😂!! Going to weigh the baby and go on a mission today to buy bigger vests, bigger sleep suits and an obscene selection of nappies.

Bless you, sending lots of love and patience your way!! 💙
