Help! I don’t think I can cope with another blow out 🙈
My little boy is almost 6 months and weighs about 8kg
He was fine in size 3 pampers and Aldi nappies but they were getting tight so I tried sizing up to size 4
Since then I’ve started getting leaking nappies every day. If he does a poo while sat up it just leaks straight down his leg and he’s now leaking overnight too
I tried going back to size 3 but I’m getting the same
Also tried Morrisons size 4 which seemed better but little boy has just woken to a leaky nappy
I always pull the flaps out and make sure it’s on securely
Any advice?

Rascals nappies are amazing

My baby boy is also 6 months old and 8 kg. We are using huggies size 4 almost 1,5 month. No leaking

Have you tried sizing up in vests?

Have you tried Asda? Never had leak with my little girl in them!

I’ve noticed rascal nappies are the best nappies ! They hold brilliantly . There my go to bed time nappies

We found we loved Aldi nappies until size 3 and found they always leaked we then switched to size 4 Tesco and they been fine, Sainsbury nappies are also really good

I recommend little angels I went to Tesco bc it’s closer and she just leaks over night never had that issue with little angels

We get no leaks in the Lidl nappies, we really like them!

We had to change brand at around this time - no idea why but the change in brand worked.
Vest sizing up could also help.

We had constant blow outs with rascals and didn't buy them again. Over the last month we were very happy with Sainsbury's nappies. Once in a while we get pampers, also happy with them but they are too expensive.
But in general we use cloth nappies during daytime and disposable only when we are outside and for the night.
We always size up quickly, so they are not tight, that helped with blow outs so far. Our little one is 7.5 months old and is 7.9 kg.
We are using size 4 since he is 5.5 months old/ 6.5 kg, even though the nappies are for 8-14 kg.

I’ve only ever properly used Aldi nappies, found the other ones very thin! If he’s leaking while sat, I would say that the nappy might be too big?

Maybe try a 4+ as they are more absorbent, not sure if you are aware but the plush is the absorbent level xx

Eurgh I am in the exact same situation. We’ve loved Lidl up until size 4, same with Tesco! We’re now trying size 4+ from boots and Sainsbury’s

I recommend trying rascal & friends nappies, they’re absolutely brilliant for my boy. He’s 6 months and nearly 9kg🙈. Never have leaks in them and we’ve been using them for about 3/4 months now as he was allergic to pampers and leaked through Tesco. Sainsbury’s are always worth a try as they are our go to as well

We’ve been using Sainsbury’s since size 4, only had 1 poo leak in the last 2 months but it was a teeny bit out the side because he filled the nappy right up😅
