night time diaper

[Rie]

Has anyone made a good night time diaper? How did you do it? I've been making some AIOs for DS similar to the Swaddlebees in fit. Is it enough to just add more absorbancy? Is there anything I should think about doing differently?

I currently have been using 2 PF and a Polar Bummis cover. It just doesn't look at all comfortable, but it does the job. Looking for an alternative!

TIA

I myself just use my regular diaper with th normal daytime soaker, but I add 1 or 2 terrycloth washcloths or sometimes I use just one pf. My dipes are 3 body layers and 6-8 flannel soaker layers if that helps. I don't make aois so mine are just fitteds.

I've made 2 hemp fitteds that work great! I used 2 layers of hemp fleece for the body and made a three-layer hemp fleece trifold insert. But I couldn't do a three-step zig-zag with the 2 layers of hemp because the elastic stayed stretched out. I just do a regular zig-zag instead.

Thanks Ladies!

Where can you buy the hemp fabrics?

I'm a little scared of the hemp because I've heard it can really end up stinking and that it gets hard?

You can get hemp at diapershop.com

I'd be interested to hear what the consensus is on hemp too, since I've heard good and bad things about it too Rie. I use microfiber now, but it would be nice to use something more natural if it works.
