    Hi,
    How many of you are changing diapers at night for 3 months olds and up?
    I have a 6 months old DD. I used to change her 3-4 times during the night till she is 3 months old. After that she stopped pooping at night and I started working. I have to start for the work very early, and so i need to get some good sleep. So I stopped changing her at night. In the morning her diaper is so bulky. I am not sure if I am doing the right thing. Are you still changing the diaper for your baby at night? If so, are you using a overnight brand?

    My baby is 5months old. Previously I was changing her diapers at night. Now I don't change her diapers. One reason is if she wakes up she finds it very difficult to go back to sleep. Even I am not sure if this is correct.

    Dont leave the same diaper for 10 or 12 hrs.. it may not be good for the baby.
    Try to change it once .. Or try to use those Night time diapers which last for about 12hrs and soak in more.

    Hi ilovemymom,

    This is why I am also reluctant to change her at night.

    Thanks Ranchu for replying. I will try to change once. But the issue is she is waking up when I try to change her and then I have to put her Back to sleep, and I am losing my sleep. Which night time diapers are you using? I checked buggies over night diapers reviews and people are saying they have recently changed their design and it is not good now. Somehow I did not like pampers. 7th generation night time diapers are very expensive.

    While changing diapers, feed the baby with milk or water. They'll sip the bottle and fall asleep!
