tummy sleeper

Help. Currantly I am sleeping my boy in drybees night nappy with two microfibre inserts and a hemp boaster which makes the nappy dam near impoosible to put on its so full but now that he has decided tht tummy is for him they keep leaking at the top.
He is in smalls which according to the website should fit til 8kgs, he is 6.6kgs. They are hard to fit round his chubby legs though so maybe they are too small.
What do people use for their tummy sleepers?

I have a tummy sleeper and have found that it doesn't matter how much stuffing there is, most nappies seem to leak out the top.
I was recommended a Stacinator fleece cover and haven't had a leak since I started using it. It just goes over the top of your normal nappy.

Maybe try more hemp and less microfibre? If he's sleeping on his tummy then he's probably putting pressure on the microfibre inserts at the front, which will react like a wet sponge! Try a Nix-Kidz hemp flat with a microfibre cloth or insert on top.

Also, I'd try upsizing his nappy - even though he's within the small weight range because you're having to add extra stuffing you'll probably find that he'd fit the next size up at nights.

Freesia I tried the flexitot but found they always leaked out the top... not sure why cause during day I find them more absorbant than the bamboozles!

I do use a bigger cover (size 1) with my bamboozles, so maybe that's it? I'll have to try it with a flexitot and see...

good luck
