Any suggestions as to how I can stop the nighttime leaks? Oliver was just soaked this morning, as usual. I started cutting off all drinks 30 minutes before bedtime. Should I cut them off an hour before bedtime?

I never had this problem, but here are things I have been told herlp

1. buy a size larger at night then during the day
2. they make insert (maxi pads basically) that you can put inside the diaper at night. I believe Babies r us sells them
3. Huggies Overnights are suppose to be good
4. some people will by cloth diaper inserts (on line) and put them inside the night time diaper as well.

What size of diapers is he in? Because any time that luke gets soaked like that, it means to go up a size!
He's in a size 3 Luvs. Maybe he does need a bigger diaper.

Nichole is a pound lighter then Oliver and she wears a 3, but she could go to a 4 as well. Some parents will even put a 5 on at that size, just at night

I just checked the Luvs website and size 4 is for 22 lbs and up. You're probably right then that I have to go up a size.

Jordyn is 13 months and she's been in a size 4 Pampers for awhile now. I'm thinking after this box we are going to go up a size. She started leaking through this weekend.

Yeah my goddaughter would be soaked every morning if we used regular diapers at night... it's huggies overnights at night, and everything's good :)

Lol you guys think your babies are big? Eli is 7 months old and weighs 21lbs. Wears size four diapers. He's 27" long too I think. He doesn't eat more than he should, according to his pediatrician. Anyway he'll soak through any diaper at night for some reason, so I got the Huggies Overnights, they work AMAZINGLY every time, never had a soak through since. They're expensive, but if you think about it as one pack lasts about 2 months since you only use one every night, the price is worth it. I love them, it really saves me a lot of trouble. During the day he wears Luvs. Cheap, cute, effective, and smell good. :D lol.

My son did this all the time until we put him in size 5 overnight diapers. That was many months ago (and he's only 18 months now!), and he hasn't leaked since then.
