Hi everyone, I need some help.
My little button is almost 16mths old, drinks alot of water. And every night she soaks through her disposable nappy we put on her.
We have tried going up a size so that she is in the 16kg and over nappies, have tried treasure, huggies and other budget nappies.

I am sick of changing her bed most days and washing her pjs every day. Has anyone found any nappies that a really heavy wetter doesn't soak through? Or what I can do to stop it?

Thanks!

I had the exact same problem at the same age and it did my head it!

In the end I put a cloth nappy insert into my huggies and this fix the problem completely. No brand of disposable nappy worked on its own for us but huggies were def better than the others.

Good Luck.

I put a cloth nappy cover on over top of the disposable (usually a snazzipants fleece cover) - that saves the PJ's and the bed!

We check the girls nappies as we are going to bed. If they have any wees at all then we change them. Haven't had a wet bed since. It also got us an extra 30 mins in bed

Is she a tummy sleeper, found when my wee girl was still having a big bottle before bed she would soak through disposables, but used huggies boys as they are a bit more absorbent at the front and that stopped most leaks. Have also used covers over disposables, yoyo naps make good covers.

Also someone commented on here a while ago that there girl was a big water drinker and they tried to offer more drinks earlier on in the day to try and prevent drinking large amounts late in the day??
