Nappy sizing

Hello all, so my little one is 22 months, we use Aldi nappies always got on really well with them, my little one drinks a lot and I have now found that the nappies are not holding like they was, they wore a size 6+ in mania nappies, so I went up a size to size 7 mamai and these don't seem much bigger? First time mum so I have always "winged" nappies, there nappy needs changing in the day time 2-3hours and it's absolutely full almost leaking, so when we go out they leak a lot and I'm always changing there clothes what else can I do and try? (I can't afford pamper nappies) Tia xx

We use Fred and flo Tesco and find them great xx

Lupilu by Lidl

Asda nappies have been good for us or Sainsbury's used to be. How heavy is little one and do they have a belly or not really?

I used aldi when LO was younger as found Lidl leaked but as she got older it switched and I found Lidl suited better and very similar in price. But I was also gifted some Fred & Flo ones and found them good.

Rascals pull ups are really good, Tesco sells them, my daughters never leaked in them. I got Aldi ones recently when I popped in and she leaked in them straight away!

@Kiera what sizing and what age was your little one? X

@Megan funny you should say that because they do have a belly 😂 I'm unsure how heavy they are as not been weighed in a long time, but they wear size 2-3 clothes mostly xx

@Chloe oh really, maybe as they are getting bigger they are not as good, I had no issues up until now xx

We’re 29 months, in 18-24 and some 2-3 clothes. Around 12-12.5kg and 87cm. He’s in 5+ xx

We've been in size 7s for ages cos they were the best round her belly she's around 15kg just now I think, tall for her age and in age 3-4 sometimes bigger in everything 🙈😂

@Lisa I was gifted some Fred and Flo before aswel is that Morrisons? I got on well with them but never looked into the price etc xx

@Kiera @Megan okay thank you, so I changed my little one at 4pm they had a drink of about 200ml then there dinner and a drink guzzled 500ml then maybe then I picked them up out of the high chair absolutely soaking wet nappy is full like I didn't just change it just a little over 2hours ago? do you think the plus in the nappies makes that much of a difference? I always got the plus before because they have always drank a lot, but this 7 size isn't but also doesn't looked any bigger? I'm a bit confused what to do cc

I don't have a massive drinker so I've never really noticed a difference sorry. What about pull ups have you tried them some people like them better? X

I dunno. My son used cloth diapers he never leaked that’s 2 inserts for day (12 layers) and 3 inserts for night (18 layers) Using cloth for me took the headaches out of sizing up and leaks and blowouts he used the same stash at 2m that he did at 2.5. You can try changing brands. You can also try a cloth diaper w one insert in it, on top of the disposable because the extra insert catches all the leaks that come out of the disposable. Maybe for next baby consider cloth from newborn.
