Night-time Diapering Options

 

Is your child leaking out at night?  Well here are several options to help you fix the problem.

 

1)                  Just double up on your diapers.  By "double up" we mean just put one diaper on top of the other and fold it the same way you would always fold it. It works well.  Some parents don’t like the bulkiness, but babies don’t mind. 

 

2)                  Add a doubler to the diaper.  A doubler is a smaller diaper or liner that helps with absorbancy and is not as bulky.  Eco-baby rents 10 doublers (small premie diaper) for $1/week.  Or purchase them for $18.50/doz. They are good for night-time and also longer errands.

 

3)                  If your baby doesn’t mind feeling wet, and is leaking through the diaper, the fleece wraps help to keep baby’s clothes and bed dry. We have the Polar Bummi and the Stacinator fleece covers.   The Polar Bummi combines hi-tech performance with super softness and comfort.  This is the latest in diapering miracles. Two layers of breathable fleece with a highly breathable laminate sandwiched inside.  this diaper cover is the ultimate in comfortable diapering wear.  Never too hot - use it all year ‘round.  This is a densely knitted but lightweight, anti-pill fleece that will wick moisture away from baby’s skin while the interior waterproof laminate prevents any moisture from leaking onto clothing.

The Stacinator Fleece Covers are made from luxurious 200 weight  fleecemade by Malden Mills.  It is the same weight and type that many upscale mail-order and retail stores use for their serious outerwear. Our solid deluxe covers are made with one layer of high quality waterproof Malden Mills fleece.   Experienced reusable diapering moms swear by this brand of fleece for superior wetness protection and leak prevention.      Our single layer solid covers have proven to work as well as the two layer solid covers without the bulk.  Our print covers are made with two layers of high quality Malden Mills fleece. The prints are not waterproof but the solids are. Both covers are a great option for heavy wetters and for use when your baby will go for longer periods between diaper changes.

4)                  Is your baby waking up because he/she feels wet?  Then the pocket diaper from Happy Heiny’s is the way to go.  Happy Heinys® solids have been tested for 12 hours or more at night with absolutely no wicking (rashing) for most babies. The solids have a 100% poly laminated outer layer and will work better overnight.   There are no leg casings, which make better fitting diapers and contain messes better without leaving red marks on your baby’s legs.Should the fleece roll out? Yes! Do NOT try to roll the fleece in. The diapers will wick if the fleece is rolled in. They are designed so the only thing that touches your child's delicate skin is the soft fleece. Happy Heinys® are available in a variety of solid colors and fun prints. Happy Heinys® Prints have a laminated 100% cotton outer layer and work best for daytime use. They may leak if used overnight for heavy wetters. Just place our pre-folds into the pocket of the diaper and your baby is ready for a night of dry sleep.
