Sweat vs pee

I’ve got my 7 week old son out of his next to me cot this morning and the back of his babygrow is soaking wet. It wasn’t like this at 5am when he had a feed. He sleeps in a short sleeved vest and long sleeved babygrow with a cellular blanket which he kicks off in the night. Has anyone else noticed that their babies are really damp in the morning?? Could this be sweat or more likely pee from a leaking nappy?!! If it is sweat I’m worried about him overheating but don’t really want him wearing any less at night in October!

When I've had a similar experience it was definitely pee 😅. But when in doubt you can always check his chest/back inside the vest to see the temperature and make sure they are not too hot or clammy

I’m still getting the hang of this having a boy thing. My little one often ends up with a wet back/side and this is down to a leaking nappy or me not making sure his bits and pointing down (my partner keeps telling me and I feel like I do but he still manages to wee out the side of his nappy) 🤣🤣 which nappies are you using? I feel like if it was sweat you’d feel his neck been all wet too as that’s a place that gets quite warm and his hair might look a little wet xxxxx

Having a penis is a liability! We have had him pee up out the nappy! It’s like a little python ready to strike when we lift the nappy!! 🤣🤣

He wees everywhere. It’s usually the middle of early hours where he wees everywhere 🤣 full change and a very angry baby xxxxx

We’re using kit and Kin nappies which are really good during the day at keeping things in! He wasn’t particularly warm to the touch and his hair wasn’t damp like you would expect with sweat….I’m pretty certain it was pee due to a poorly contained willy! Thanks for the comments! 😊
