I know i have seen this on here before, but i cant find it now.

What nappies do you use for overnight?

We use Fuzzibunz and IttiBitti during the day but Huggies at night but am thinking going cloth for night too if i can find a nappy that goes the distance!!

I have a feeling my Itti Bitti D'lish may go overnight but i have tried, has anyone else?

We used a boosted Fuzzi on Leo until he was over a year old as he was only a light wetter. But when he started wetting more we switched to a heavily boosted Foxybots, which had a bigger pocket and seemed less prone to wicking (might be to do with the waterproof layer they use). But once Leo reached 18-20mths we couldn't stuff a pocket enough to keep him dry overnight (12-13hrs) so we switched to Designer Bums hemp fitted nappy & merino cover and haven't looked back!! We got the bamboo booster to go with the fitted nappy and it's soooo absorbent - we've never had a leak. In the winter months I switched the cover for a pair of woollen longies as they doubled as pj pants.

To boost a pocket we used a Nix-Kidz hemp fleece flat (2 layers of hemp fleece which you trifold to gert 6 layers) plus a Foxybots hemp/microfibre trifold (for another 3 layers of hemp & 3layers of microfibre).

my fave pocket for overnight for my big boy was a wigglebum stuffed with a flat and a microfibre insert.
but yeah fitteds and wooly covers are what we generally use.

My nearly 3 year old is in his Fuzzy with a hemp supersoaker insert from baby harmony and a normal insert. Hes a heavy wetter (always through huggies at night!) and we have had no problems at all now.
Ali is in her honey child pockets with a normal hemp insert and 2 microfiber ones and no leaks from her either. She has slept in her ittis and didnt leak but is was awfully stiff and full in the morning so i think the HC are more comfy for her.

We use a Foxybots with about 5 layers of m/f and 5 layers of hemp and have never had any problems and I really like how soft they are around his legs, they don't seem to leave any red marks like my Fuzzi bunz do.

We use a bum genius (one size) and just stuff it with 2 of the microfibre inserts.
I have a couple of wigglebums coz they look cool, but they often seem to leak out thru the legs

Jack who is quite a heavy wetter has a foxy with a peapod trifold, baby harmony hemp booster and mf insert.

Caprece who is quite a light wetter could easily do an itti bitti over night

*bump*

JJ is growing out of the fitted nappies he's been in since 6 weeks (which I never liked much anyway), and he's wetting through them at night. (Not leaking because we're using small DB merino covers which keep it all in but he's waking up uncomfortable, then changing his nappy in the middle of the night wakes him good and proper )

I'm not a pockets girl, I like fitteds and covers (or all in ones during the day), so any recommendations? Vic I know you swear by the DB fitteds and I'd love to give them a go but to get a medium fitted, booster and cover for at night would set me back $68.50, just for the one, and there's no way I can justify that to DH.

Where oh where is that itti bitti night nappy we keep hearing about?

I know what you mean about the cost, I felt the same way but when I thought about how much I'd spend on Huggies in the long run I figured that a couple of night nappies was worth it, especially as they never leaked. They also wear really well so you can get good money back when you sell them (easily $20 per nappy).

Why don't you put a post on The Nappy Network trading post board to see if anyone has any medium DB fitted nappies & covers they're willing to sell? You'll be surprised what comes out of the woodwork there!

I use the tots bots bamboozle, with a booster in it and I find it fantastic. We have never had any leaks and my son is a very heavy wetter.
I have tried about 5 different nappies at night and I have found this one to be the best.   It last about 12 hours for us.

I went into Bumbles and asked about good night naps and i was surprised to be told that there was the perfect night nap on her bum there and then. We have the wooley ecobubs...the lady (sorry don't know your name) said to just pop in a hemp or bamboo insert with my microfiber one and it is the perfect night nap. Will be trying it tonight after washing the bamboo insert a few times. Will let you all know how it goes.

It went really well! No leaks and no wicking so you can add Ecobubs wool pockets with a bamboo and Microfiber inserts to the list of good night naps.

All night nappies have to be is well fitting and very absorbant.

So I upsize the nappies I use during the day (so that I can get more absorbancy in), add more stuffing, and just like that I have a night nappy.

Means no extra cost at all, as DS will probably be in the larger size pocket anyway in time.
