This is getting rediculous

Liam has peed through his diaper every night and nap for a couple days now. I even buy the expensive overnight diapers, but those aren't working. I stopped CDing to give myself a laundry break now that I'm in my 3rd trimester, but I'm having to wash sheets so often that that isn't really working out so well. I tried moving up a size in his diapers, but size 4 diapers are too big. I cut down the amount of milk he got yesterday and this morning, but that didn't work either. 

I feel like he holds it all morning. He usually only has one wet diaper before his nap. It's driving me batty. Any suggestions?

I've got nothing but that really sucks, especially in the 3rd trimester. Maybe try throwing him on the potty right before nap and bedtime to see if he will empty his bladder that way? Good Luck

Can you put a cloth diaper insert in his diaper for extra absorbancy?  You may have to use the larger size diaper though.  I can't believe he still fits in size 3 too.  Kieran is so little and I think we're almost ready to give up our 4's.

HUGS!

My son soaks everything often. He pees through his pull ups regularly. I usually have to change his sheets. He did this when he was in diapers too. I don't know what works. But I do know that there is a sheet saver pad that you can put in their bed over their sheets that is absorbent, disposible and saved me from having to wash sheets every day. They are usually where the big kids goodnights are. As far as keeping him dry, I have no solutions, but lots of sympathy. I think that putting the absorbent insert in may help greatly. Oh, and he may be holding it until he is absolutely full. DS refuses to poop at school usually, which means that time we hit the house, his pull up is full to the brim. Don't know why he does that, but that is my kid. best of luck to you. Let us know how it works out. Wow, it won't be long now until you meet your new little one!

Oh man that stinks!! I can't believe he still fits in a size 3 diaper, Logan's been in size 5 for quite a few months now! Can you just do the size 4's up tighter so they are more snug? I wonder if he's holding it because he's getting close to being ready for potty training?

I don't have suggestions on how to prevent the leaking but I can suggest these to make cleanup easier http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4086317

We use a similar product (ours snap rather than tie).  I put two on at a time so if there is an accident  you just pull the soiled one off.  No need to change sheets and you still have a dry bed.

Try 4s in a different brand maybe? I hate the overnight diapers- they're thinner than regular diapers!
