Overnight Diapers


Claire always had massively full overnight diapers. She was getting up in the night (still does as a rule, there have been exceptions). We haven't changed how much liquid she intakes in a day, other than she's fully switched now to Homogenized Milk rather than formula.

It seems though, since the switch her overnight diapers aren't that full. Like, if I change her diaper during the day (if I happen to have her in a disposable, we normally use cloth) it is more full than the overnight that she's been wearing for 12 hours.

I'm worried that she's not getting enough liquid. I've given her sippy cups with water or juice in them, but it is more of a game for her as she'll drink a bit, then spit the rest out by blowing a raspberry. I figured that if she was thirsty, she'd drink. She still has 5oz of milk in a sippy with each of her meals (3 a day) plus one extra one as a 'snack' in the afternoon.

Not sure if that is enough? I'm confused because I'm used to seeing diapers that are ready to split at the seams when she gets up, and tbh I'm sure I could probably leave her in these diapers for longer as they're barely peed in.

that sounds like plenty and she's still having wet diapers during the day so I wouldn't worry. It might actually be a sign that she'll be ready to potty train early I think

Hannah has around 16 ounces of milk plus 8-12 ounces of water throughout the day
