Diaper Boosters

Hi mommas, So I am incredibly blessed to have a baby that is almost 2 months old and already sleeping through the night (from about 23:00 to 06:30ish) every night, unless she is cluster feeding. She averages around 24oz of milk (both breast milk and formula since I’m a low supplier) a day. She is gaining weight at a good pace and her pediatrician is satisfied with her growth even if she is in the lower percentiles (she’s been in the lower percentiles since birth as she was a late premie born at 37 weeks exactly), we were told we can feed on demand now without waking her up during the day and at night. That being said, I feel awful when I wake up with her in the morning and she has leaked pee out of her diaper because it gets full overnight. It doesn’t happen every morning but it does happen enough to make me want to find a solution. They don’t make overnight diapers in sizes smaller than size three. My baby is still wearing newborn size diapers as she was born very small and is still fitting into them, in fact she’s just now fitting properly into all of the newborn size clothing and diapers. Anyways, has anyone used diaper booster pads for the overnight diaper? I wouldn’t use them during the day because she wakes every 1.5 to 4 hours ish to eat and I change her every time she eats, has a poopy diaper, or has a noticeably fullish diaper of pee (sometimes she pees A LOT within the span of an hour or two) But since she’s going that long stretch at night without eating, I don’t wake up to change her because I don’t hear her crying at all. Which leads her to have a super full diaper in the morning. I change her right before she goes to sleep at 23:00 so she has a fresh diaper when she’s put down for bed at night. I’m thinking about using diaper booster pads just for that overnight diaper so maybe she won’t wake up with pee leaks. Would this be okay? Has anyone use diaper boosters for young babies? Did they work okay? What brands do you recommend?

So I had this problem with huggies but switch millie moon and it works better but also we had to switch off huggies they gave her a huge rash even with the changing after every feed

We had issues with the nappy leaking and just went up to the next size and it worked. Although she was still fitting into the smaller size, the bigger one seemed to work better.

My 3 month girl sleeps from 8pm to 4am with no leaks whatsoever - Pampers size 2! I would just switch brands?
