So my LO is about to be 5 months 🤯 and has been sleeping through the night more often than not. My issue is when we all wake up in the morning he has peed through his diaper all over his clothes and bedding. It's a hassle to change and have to wash everything daily. My issue is this: should I get up during the might and wake him up to change him and then most likely feed to go back to bed?? Or should I let sleep and is there something I can use instead to keel from having to change everything daily. A FTM so I have no idea which side is better to do 🤦♀️

I second night diapers and getting 1 size up.
Worked great for our son, stopped leaks at night 🙏🏻

We use Honest diapers and LO sleeps 12+ hours without a nighttime diaper change.

I wouldnt wake him if he doesn’t wake up from it. I’d get overnight diapers in one size up and sposie pads to put inside. My daughter is 5 months next week and she sleeps 12hrs and went through a period where she leaked constantly but it never woke her up. The sposie inserts have worked wonders Bc her butt was always wet when I changed her in the AM almost like the diapers couldnt absorb more and now it’s dry.

I would change him throughout the night. Would he definitely wake up if you did? I get not wanting to, but he’s still so young that he’ll most likely pee through any diaper because he’ll go so frequently.
You can try an overnight and/or size up like other suggested

I use Target brand overnight diapers and they work great!! She’s in them for 12-13 hours and has only had 1 leak

I cut down the size of his bedtime bottle, and offered more earlier to make up for it. Usually keep it under 4oz.

I used to put just a t shirt on my LG and change her in the crib not waking her around 12, popped the clean nappy under the dirty opened it wiped and swisher it out close new nappy job done no leaks and no waking up baba, she'd mooch a bit after but never woke fully
