I am either confused or tired, are you asking if we think you should use a doubler? LOL
Is this possible?
I bought a firefly sleeptight to try. While cringing at the cost, I decided if it was as wonderful as everyone says, it would be worth it. My son has worn it twice and both times woken up crying because he's so wet. The wool cover is dry, his jammies are dry, but the diaper is soaked.
Is this even possible? From what I read I should be able to wear a sleeptight

; I've thought of adding a fleece topped doubler so he doesn't feel it, but it's already so bulky and huge. Any ideas?

My dd SOAKED a sleeptight and we tried them for a week. I used the doubler that came with them and a wool cover and there was so much bulk that she had a hard time turning over...but every morning the sleptight would be dripping wet

Of course, she is a super heavy wetter and I have yet to find a diaper that she DOESNT soak at night ( inlcuding sposies

We are STILL on the quest for the perfect nightime system....I hate bulk and wet jammies

i use a trifold hemp doubler (or 2!) in the wettest zone (for my son that's front and center) in any regular diaper, and put wool pants on top as a cover.
Another thing that is really easy for me since my son doesn't wake up if I change him, is I know that he'll pee one huge flood the first time he wakes up to nurse, so right after he nurses, since I'm half awake anyway (we cosleep), I have a new diaper/doubler set up right by the bed and I quickly (like, 20 seconds) swap the soaked diaper and put on a new one. When he wakes in the morning he floods that one, or sometimes as he's stirring and kind of waking up in the morning. I remove that as soon as we wake up in the morning, and he floods 2-3 more diapers in the A.M. and I am quick about changing. The funny thing is that after all that effort in the early morning hours and late morning hours, then in the afternoon/evening/nighttime-before-I-go-to-bed, he doesn't pee much and he doesn't pee often. So he goes dry for long stretches and then piddles, trim diaper works fine, etc.... no effort. Strange.

Any of you guys have babes who flood during half of the day's cycle and barely piddle the other half?

What she said... they barely get used now because FB with 3 joeys seem to keep her so much more comfortable. Plus dd is a belly sleeper and when she would wake in a sleeptight she'd be wet to her belly button
