I'm just starting out & only have 2 dozen prefolds & 3 covers for my 1 year old. I'm afraid he would be to wet when he wakes up, sleeps from 9pm-7:30am. I dont have alot of $$ but want to get something that he can be in all night long without having to worry. I've been sposie'in
: for nighttime, eek!

A quick fix would be to quad or tri fold one pf into the middle panel of your other pf then pin or snappi it on. Do you want to stick w/pf's or do you want to try fitteds? I'd suggest hemp in either case, and most wahms offer hemp these days. I also found organic sherpa to be very absorbent but also much more bulky than hemp. You could also just buy doublers to boost absorbency.

You can get your hands on a pocket diaper pretty easily. You might want to try a pocket dipe stuffed with one of your prefolds or some hemp if you want to buy some inserts. You can check the trading post or Happy Heiney pockets are pretty easy to come by. An all fleece pocket works well for overnights...

I second the hemp suggestion - hemp fitteds with a doubler work well. Quad folding a pf into the middle of another pf is good as well. I use Happy Heinys and Fuzzi Bunz stuffed with hemp inserts at nighttime quite a bit. Nighttime is the hardest time to cd IMO - I'm still trying to perfect my nighttime system!
