Nappy change at night

We only ever change our LOs nappy if she has a leak in the night. Unfortunately last night was one of those nights and we were awake from 2 until after 4am. We had to do a full nappy, body suit and sleep suit change. Any tips on how to keep her from being so awake after a change? She’s 6 months for context but always so awake after a change, and I know it’s a big thing but frustrating when we’re sat in darkness, rocking her, trying to convince her to go back to sleep 😂🫠

Is she waking up for feeds in the night? Maybe try different nappies that are more absorbing? Like pampers do normal and a + range and the + means more absorbing so we use them for our lad as he doesn’t wake up during the night but will wee (never leaked so far)

She woke for a feed and I noticed her sleep sack was wet. Her nappy never usually leaks but last night we just couldn’t get her back to sleep after the change and her feed 🫩

I always used to change them then feed them as the feed would normally make them sleepy again, other than being in a dark room with a calm environment I wouldn’t know what to suggest sorry 🤷🏻‍♀️

We tried that but she was just so happy being awake 🤦🏼‍♀️ thank you though.

We ended up having to use red light as that helped keep him a bit sleepier x

Great thanks, I’ll try that next time
