When do you change a fitted

ok this may sound daft, but I feel that to leave a fitted on until the whole front of the nappy to where the snaps are must wrong - so do you change them before then.

leo can do that to a goodmama in under 2 hours

I would change before that, when Gracie was in nappies she was changed every 2-3 hours.
Have you tried folding the boosters different? Gracie is in her GM nn tonight and I fold one of the inserts (the bottom one) in half so there is more at the front and I also add a small hourglass shaped bamboo booster x

thats what I was thinking - but leo is only 7 months old - what on earth am I going to do in a few months - I am guessing his wetting is only going to get worse

You may find that he starts to wet less heavily when he's more established on solids and drinks less milk.

really i hope so - he does have 6 bf a day plus 2 night so alot of fluid

I was worried about this a few months ago, but now at almost 9 months, he's cut down from 5 bottles to 4 and with eating more solids he is wetting a lot less.

I change him every 2-3 hours, 1st nappy of the day after 2 as he wets loads then & the one between 5pmish and Bed no more than 2 hours again as he wets heavily then too.

i have a 7 month old, and i change about every 2 hours (unless she's sleeping then). more often than not, fitted's are wet through right round the font, snaps etc even doing the change that frequently. i'm currently experimenting with different inserts to add in, and am considering buying some zorb inserts. can't really afford to buy enough to put one in each nappy though.

wearing wool definitely improves the situation, although dd is only in wool about every other day - partly because i'm a slow knitter and don't yet have enough, and partly because dh keeps nagging me that i have to let her wear normal clothes too otherwise she'll hate me when she gets older and looks at all the photos.

LushTush sells sheets of Zorb for about £4, it's like felt so you can just cut it & use it, not the prettiest and not made into proper inserts but it works & is cheap! I put it in all my pockets

oooo can I have a link please - I will be buying some!!!
