Hello all, my little girl 8 months old sleeps through the night but wakes up soaking wet in the morning where her nappy has leaked through to her clothes. I’ve tried Aldi, Lidl, Tesco, and pampers and they all leak….does anyone have any other brands that might work 🤷🏽♀️

Have you tried sizing up on nappies and also on vest and sleepsuit sizes, I often found the vest was the problem.....

I’m using Rascals and I size up x

Hiya , I’ve had the same problem with my son since he was a baby, he’s now 2😭 we’re on rascals and we’ve had to buy nappy inserts to go inside his nappy at night to help soak it up, it does help tbh but the odd night where he’s still wet through but I think he just moves around a lot . Babies also wet through when they’re cold and he does do this more in winter so could be it too , I’ve bought the inserts off Amazon and I normally get the 100% or 100% bamboo , they’re also reusable which sometimes can be a mission to keep washing but it’s your discretion as I think they’re disposable inserts too , hope that helps 🙌🏼x

Just change her before you go to bed x

Those are good brands but if possible, change your baby’s nappy every 3-4 hrs to avoid infection/ uti

Sainsburys

I found switching to pull ups at night stopped my little boy leaking through x

Rascals

I swear by peachies! They’re a bit more spenny but 1000% worth the investment never had a single leak. Kit and kin are also a cheaper alternative to peachies equally great with 0 leaks neither brands contain any toxic stuff in them either like many others xx

We use the brand Naty from waitrose and she never leaked at night and she sleeps 11-12 hours straight

Have you tried the plus size in pampers babydry? Theyre more absopant. Dont get the premium protection, they arent as good
My baby is 13kg, but hes in 6+ at night and 5+ during the day
6+ are advertised for babies 14kg+

We use rascals pull ups at night - only ones which don’t leak!
When did yours start to stop?
I’m 7 months pp and it started around 4 months pp but it’s making me feel so sh*t with the amount I’ve lost.
I take vitamins and eat well and I just want it to stop 🥲

What would you do?
My partner took our little girl to my mums, after just coming to pick her up, no heads up, so that ruined the plans i already had with her, they have just got home and i found out my aunt cut her hair. Her first haircut and i missed it because no one told me, didn’t even ask if it was ok, i have made it clear so many times i want to be there when she has her first haircut cut. And this wish was denied. I feel upset that i missed it but mainly annoyed. Am i being silly?

We have just found out my MIL has cancer. We are devastated, trying to process it, honestly I'm still in shock. The woman is one of the healthiest people I knew up until this.
I have a two year old and a 9 month old. I'm trying to support my husband as best I can but I'm really concerned about my 2 year old. We took her to the hospital to see her grandma before she goes on the chemo ward, because kids aren't allowed on there for risk of infection. Totally understand that but how do I explain to her where grandma has gone or why she can't see her? She's already picking up on the vibe that things aren't right and she's worried and clingy, I've told her grandma is poorly and she's at the Dr in bed so they can make her healthy again. I didn't loose a grandparent until I was 7 and by then I'd had two hamsters so I kinda understood what death was. But how do you talk about that without scaring the shit out of a younger child. I'm trying to stay positive but if it comes to that how do I tell her. I told her it's normal for people to feel sad sometimes and daddy is crying because he's sad that grandma is poorly. It's so horrible I just don't know what to do or say to help either of them. We are gonna take it in turns to visit her going forward, try to keep her company. It's going to be a hard few months ahead. Any advice on any of it really appreciated.

Before anyone judges, let me put it straight that I do absolutely love being a Mum but recently i’ve found i’ve been losing myself and becoming more and more agitated with little things, I never get a break from being a Mum and sometimes find myself missing the person I was before having a child, I feel awful that i’m feeling like this as I don’t want my Daughter picking up on my moods, I try so hard to make her happy and give her the best but sometimes it feels like i’m not doing enough, i’m juggling everything all at once (trying to get back into work after 3 years and having no luck) (doing course work that has tight deadlines) (trying to make sure I get her out and playing) (making sure she’s eating nutritional meals everyday) (trying to be the perfect person for everyone) it’s becoming a draining and depressing feeling.

Anyone else find it weird that the amount you get from the healthy start card drops after your child turns 1?
Before 1 : £34 a month
After 1 : £18.60 as month
