    ya my biggest problem is she has gotten used to having a bottle right before bed so we get a fresh diaper and jammies on and then have her bottle and she goes right to sleep

    my son is the same way.

    i didnt know they made overnight diapers, in a size 3 do you know? As for Luvs, they give her a rash

    Yes.. the first time we found them was at Toys-R-Us but the closest one stopped carrying them. Now we get them from Amazon.com (my 2 yr old is a skinny minnie and still in size 3)... Subscribe & Save and the Mommy program (whatever it's called)... two month supply of Huggies Overnights for $15.00.

    p.s. Munchkin also gets rashes from off-brand diapers and Pampers. I swear by Huggies.

    WOW does amazon have pampers in bulk too? i've been buying a box of 92 for like $25 at wal-mart.

    Both Huggies overnights and Pampers extra protection (overnight diaper) Come in size 3. I recommend buying a small package first because those diapers tend to run more expensive. Also she might need a bigger diaper, my son always started leaking though when the diapers were getting too small.

    this is true too. my 19 month old wears a size 5 in a diaper.

    PAMPERS CRUISERS!!

    My first daughter was ok with any diaper, so she was able to use any generic store brand which for daytime was fine. But night time, she leaked, so I used Pampers Cruisers. They were her 'night-time' diapers.

    Now with my 2nd child, she has very sensitive skin and kept getting diaper rash off and on until I realized it was the diapers themselves. The only brand she wears now are the Pampers Cruisers, and she doesn't leak, and hasn't had a rash since. They are more expensive but worth the nice dry rash-free baby bum. Hopefully my next box will be the last... Potty training...
  • good luck with potty training! im still a ways off on that dang it lol, will have to check out the pampers

    Thanks, I need it. My girl is a Cars and Toy Story fanatic, so I am buying 'boys' pull-ups (with those characters on them). Now that I'm talking to her about 'panties', she wants 'woody-buzz' or 'mcqueen' panties. Do you think she would be scarred for life if her first pair of panties were boys underwear? :ohwell:

    I swore by Pampers Cruisers for both of my kids...... They never failed me and held in some huge messes if you know what I mean. That being said I really think it all depends on body type.... each kid is shaped different and you just have to figure out by trial and error.

    Huggies night time ones work a lot better for heavy wetters.

    That what we used, and they worked great!

    I don't know if they are still any good or not but I used to get great results with Luv's. Once I learned this with my oldest I used them with all three. I never had any leaks I actually tried pampers and huggies never got the results I did with the Luv's ones and they were cheaper to boot.

    that's the problem:) I can't give my boys anything like an hour before bed cause they will pee to much and get everything wet. So either nix the bed time bottle or stay up another hour to change her before you go to bed....if you don't find any diapers that work...but honestly even if you find one that keeps it in, who would want to sleep with that much pee in their pants! I feel bad for my babies when I get up and the diaper is about to explode! I know you just cant help it sometimes, kids will pee when they pee. But mine have sensitive skin and don't like it.

    maybe a bigger diaper. I noticed when my son started peeing through the diaper wasnt big enough. And I have been a huggies fan for all 4 of my babes.

    ^^Agree! Even if they were a little bit loose, I would just put shorts/tights over the diaper before she went to bed and she usually did pretty good with loser diapers.

    I also waited until she went to sleep before I changed her last diaper so she went to sleep with a fresh one. DD is a pretty heavy sleeper so she wouldn't wake up through the changing.

    I tried Pampers, Huggies & Luvs.. all of them leaked. I switched over to Walmart Generic brand "Parents Choice" those diapers hold everything! Very impressed and the price is 13.97 for a huge box!

    Have never had this problem with Pampers and mine pees all the time! It's like it goes from sippy cup to diaper almost instantly!
  • My oldest daughter could only wear Pampers during the day, but was able to use the Huggies night time at night. We tried regular Huggies with her and she leaked through twice on a two hour car drive. My youngest daughter had the same issue when she was a baby. We put her in a larger size at night & then eventually started putting Huggies Night Times on her also. I won't say we NEVER had issues, but it was rare. :happy:

    LUVS!!! It was the only diaper that I could put on my son at 8pm and he would still be dry when he woke up the next morning. I never had issues with the little absorbent balls falling out either. Huggies were really bad. Pampers were ok if I was in a bind. Tried every store brand around, tried to save cash of course. But in the end LUVS were my choice. And they were very reasonably priced, but that was 8 years ago.
    Oh and size does matter here. You definitely do not want a diaper that is too small or when they move around at night things get all out of whack and leaks happen.

    I totally second getting your diapers from Amazon. I love how much cheaper they are plus they're delivered to my door. The Huggies Overnites in size 6 are $17.49 and ship for free. Sign up for Amazon Mom and you'll save 30% off baby stuff when you do Subscribe and Save. I love it!

    I really like the idea someone had about putting a feminine pad inside the diaper. My 2yo wears Huggies Overnights in size 6, and they still leak! We've cut off all drinks but water after 7:30. I hate to deny him water. At first I just gave him water cause he wanted something and I knew he wouldn't drink it. Now he chugs it!

    i dont think she'd mind. as long as its the character she likes, she'll be a happy camper. and let me add, its something you can use to embarass her when she gets older :laugh: take a picture of her in her new underwears as a tot and show em off when shes a teen lol
