Cloth Nappy Tree Forum

I have a few night nappies now and have found our FFN and WNNN to be the best.
Over the past 4-5 nights I have found Kaydi has been wetting really hevily and the nappies are saturated in the morning almost dripping. I use wool over my night nappies, btw.

What can I do?

what do you stuff your wn with?
they aren't a good fit on sam but when they were i had to use on of the wn trifold inserts bamboo or hempwith the middle booster bit and an extra double layered hemp sb booster, they would still be wet but the wool over the top would be fine

I just boost the WNNN with the tri fold bamboo insert with a hemp snap on bit.
I think I could add extra to the large one I have but I couldn't possibly get anything elce in the medium one.
I did fold the trifols square in the FFN in to 4 which hellped a little but not much.
They have all been working really well untill this last week

They just gape at the legs if I add any extra boosting.

thats basically the problem i have with the wn- if i stuff it as much as is needed it gapes

Can I ask what you use for nights?

Have you tried two nappies Claire? Katie often wears a Sweetiebums under her bedbugs. Other than that you could try boosting between the nappy and wool. TBH though if you're not actually getting any leaks through the wool then I wouldn't worry.

Is the wool leaking? If not I wouldn't worry too much. Some nights Anna's nappy is saturated & you can squeeze it out but her wool is just slightly damp & the bed is dry.

You could try double wool, so use a soaker & longies & then boost between nappy & soaker.

i use either a v well stuffed standard large minki- hanna has put poppers on them for me or a v well stuffed UD NN and wool which seems to have a little more room and does not gape.
i am waiting for a ff nn- so fc it works for us if not i wil use it in the day
i am also waiting for a bedbug- we had one before that was no good sam soaked it in a few hours so i intend to use it in the day too but may try again at night if it can be boosted

I dread the day Gracie starts to wee more but I have noticed she is piddling a lot more at night now. We use a bamboo Sandys and have to say that and HO NN are the best, the sandys is big so has room for more boosting above what we use now. I can see a bedbug coping with a heavy wetter at night, Gracies is pretty damp and she doesn't wee rivers yet!!
