Default Re: Sheree's reflections - Heavy Wetting Toddler

Hi again,
Well winter is here and yes DD is holding on and doing huge wees. She can get a Bubba J hemp with booster in PUL cover to leak, especially if the clothing is tight in against the cover, eg body suit with wide crotch. If I'm going to put her in body suits, I'll have to add a microfibre cloth inside the nappy to be a quick absorber.
The AIO's survive really well with microfibre folding cleaning cloth and 12 layers hemp in the wet zone (ie at the front with less at the back). I just can't get over the two leaks I've had with hemp and PUL though - I didn't think that was possible from 1 wee, but then I don't hold on all afternoon until just before 5pm!!!
As for nights, well I am now changing her at times during the night because she calls out saying wee wee!!! Tonight I am going to make some new fleece liners with the hope that they will keep her drying and she won't wake as easily. Until now I have used muslin/crepe cotton to prevent leaks out the side if they don't absorb quickly.
Don't they change quickly!!!??
have a good evening,
