wet crib
Okay I know there is probably no solution for this. Anyway my son is 13mo old he sleeps well about 11-12 hours at night he sleeps on his stomach most of the night. The problem is his crib is wet in the am. I am using night diapers and it work for awhile but lately it is not helping any tips out there. He does have some milk at bedtime 5-8oz with some fruit. I could cut out his milk but I do not want to mess up his good sleeping pattern.

Maybe try the next size up from his normal night time diaper. My daughter is a size 3 during the day, and wears Huggies overnites size 4 at night. We almost never have leaks, even if her diaper is FULL in the morning.

I agree with the pp. I love Huggies diapers. Also, you can try diapers designed for boys (they're more absorbent in the front). Make sure his "little man" is pointed downward when he goes down to sleep also....

I always use the pampers cruisers #4 and I never has a time that the crib was wet. My daughters diapers are always saturated in the morning. We alway joke and say they weigh about 10 pounds but we never has a leak with the cruisers. I hope this helps

i've also found huggies diapers to be the best for a snug fit especially through the night. As someone also recoomended, although he may still fit into your regular size, "upping" the size one can help.

I have a two year old daughter and I also had this problem. I did get a bigger diaper size for nights but I also cut back on fluids before bedtime. I would give little to no fluids two to three hours before bedtime. She never complained about not getting enough to drink and the leaks stopped. Maybe if you keep giving him fruit, but cut out the milk it will help. Fruit has lots of water in it too.

Hi Lisa, I have a 2 year old son and deal with this same issue and have for a while, I have tried almost every diaper and the best one I have found is Pampers Dry in the greenish package, he wears the target brand during the day. I also try not to give him any liquids past 6pm and most of the time it works but we still have the occasional accident.

I went throught the wet diapers until my son went from formula to milk. I always gave him a bottle right before he went to sleep, but now i cut back on milk or water in the evening. After 6 he doesnt drink anything until right before he goes to bed, and even then I dont give him very much. It was hard the first few nights putting him to bed, but now he goes to sleep pretty good.
