My one and a half year old son's diaper has leaked almost every night since he was nine months, even the Huggies Good Night brand. Does anyone have a brand that they have found to work well at night with boys?

What can I do next?

My son is 9 now but I tried the huggies when he was a baby and had the same problem. My favorites were always Luvs.

Hi my son is 15 months and we've been using Papers Baby Dry for the last seven months or so and haven't had any probles. We buy the Sams club brand which work great during the day but these work the best at night. I don't know how much he weighs but we use the size four at nights because he started leaking out of the size threes but the size threes still work for him during the day. He weighs about 24 lbs.

I have a 2 and a half year old boy and over the past year the only brands that didn't leak were Pampers CRUISERS, but go by what fits him best, sometimes the suggested size won't hold heavy diapers. If you're looking for something cheaper, prior to Pull-Ups I bought White Cloud (Wal-Mart's brand) and they work very well. Good luck, I know it can be a pain to clean up after leaks!

Hi K.,

I've used Pampers Baby Dry almost the whole time my daughter (who is now 2) has been here & almost never have had problems with leakage. These things hold a LOT of fluid (Isabel seems to always have something to drink nearby). I don't know if you've tried these yet, but I've been reallllly happy with them.

I'm not sure about boys but my daughter's Huggies ALWAYS leaked and always caussed terrible diaper rashes to the point that they would end up in the hospital. I found that believe it or not Luvs was the best diaper out there. They kept their bottoms dry, didn't leak and didn't have that awful smell when wet!

Hi K., My daughter and i have experienced the same problem. I have just had to cut her liduids off at least 2 hours before bed and be sure to change her diaper right before she goes to bed. If you get better suggestions let me know I am curious to know. Good luck.

We were having the same issue with our son. At the time we were using pampers cruisers. We switched to Pampers baby dry and we have had very little leaking diapers since. Good Luck.

My daughter has the same problem... she wears Pampers Baby Dry during the day, is about to grow out of Size 3, but she wears the same brand but one size up at night. She sleeps almost 12 hours a night, so I'm about ready to go up to Baby Dry Size 5 at night and 4 during the day. Try that... it's worked for us!

Hope it helps,
K.

Personally, I love Pampers the best. I never had a problem with those. At the moment, my son uses the Huggies Pull-Ups and I don't have a problem with those either. We only use them at night because my son is still not waking up to go potty. Good Luck!!!

i had the same problem when my son was a baby. (his leaks started much earlier on...) i tried every diaper out there, and the only one that did not leak was the yellow walmart brand ones. they have ducks on the package and the diaper. i can't exactly remember the name of them....but they worked so great. good luck!

We had the same problem with our first son. Finally we tried the publix brand diapers, and that did the trick for us. Plus we started limiting fluids when it got close to his bedtime.
