So I've never posted here before...we've EC'd my daughter since birth so I've never worried too much if our diapers leaked.
She's two now and mostly out of diapers, but I put a diaper on at night maybe 50% of the time, depending on what else is going on and how tired I am. We use Fuzzi Bunz medium pocket diapers with a microfleece insert doubled up with a folded flat fold. She only pees in them maybe half the time, but when she does they ALWAYS leak. I just stripped them and I wash with soap nuts. The insert and flat fold are wet in the morning, but not completely soaked, so I don't think she needs more absorbency (although maybe I'll try a prefold instead tonight to test that theory?). But when I say leak, I mean leak all over the place--like practically a puddle on the bed. Last night my mom babysat and I think she snapped the diaper too loosely, so that could have been the problem, but really it happens most of the time if she pees at night. So I was hoping maybe you mamas could suggest some problems I haven't thought of. Thoughts?
