Aisling isn't a particularly heavy wetter but we either use a BGv3 with both inserts or a Flip with organic insert and we've never had any problems. I keep looking at all the pretty night nappies but can't really justify getting one seeing as we don't need one!

Oo my favorite subject! Ive been trialling a lot of nappies at night. Definately a two part system is best for bedtime and the slimmest ones are Ellas House Humhugger and Tots Bots Bamboozle Stretchie, both are MUCH slimmer than anything else and I use them on Theo overnight with no added boosting. The nice thing about the EllasHouse is that is has a pocket so if you NEED too you can add extra boosting easily, the fleece inner keeps all wetness away from bum and it is slim and cheap to buy too.
The Stretchie bamboozles I like a lot, again cheap and Im yet to use extra boosting they are SUPER slim.
WNNN arent that slim but they are absorbent, I really like them. Bedbugs again arent very slim but are absorbent. I havent noted that the WNNN and bedbugs arem ore absorbent than the TBstretchie or bumhugger TBH!
If I were to choose one for a heavy wetter Id go and get an bumhugger first, try it unboosted and then add a bamboo or hemp booster to the pocket if you need it. I just put two little weed hemp inserts into the bumhugger and its still slightly less bulky than the WNNN

Oh and wool wise, I have three lots of wool. They dont even really get damp on the inside because the nappies Im using them over are good but if I wanted to just use one pair I could until they got dirty or needed lanolising.

Yep, we are using them over bedbugs boosted with pop in inserts (mega wee baby, lol) and the nappy is soaked by the morning but the wool is only damp. Would be even better on a baby that doesn't wee for england! They smell a bit weeish in the morning but are fine within a couple of hours.

I don't think they are pre-lanolised, I did mine twice before using overnight but I think they are fine after doing them once, I just wanted to be extra sure, lol.

We just started using disana pants over bedbugs with a small pop-in insert and it seems to work well for us so far. I didn't pre-lanolise the wool before I used it during the day, but I did before using overnight, just in case. As Kirsten said, the wool got a bit damp but it didn't smell anywhere near as wee-ish as a pop-in
