I change every feed, mid bottle. It's because I'm worried that he will leak otherwise and I'm also trying to make sure he's comfortable to try and sleep longer stints if possible
If it's a wee not every time unless it feels particularly full/uncomfortable for her if she has a poo yes change as soon as we can We've just found that if she's only had a little wee the nappies are designed to be absorbent so it won't really be uncomfortable or she would be upset and she seems to settle better if we leave her to sleep rather than putting her on a cool changing mat, using cold wipes and things and moving her about to change her nappy but everyone's different she doesn't tend to have big wees on a night anyways so not a big deal for her, we use mamia from Aldi (size 1 transitioning to 2) or Fred and Flo from Tesco (size 2) 10lbs 6ozxx
I change before his feed x
I change before the feed to wake her up a bit so she feeds better. Might be because I bf but she can struggle to latch otherwise
We don’t change overnight unless he’s had a poo or a big heavy nappy- have switched to pampers and they seem to absorb really well and last a night, no nappy rash and he’s been comfy with it
When my little boy was up every 2-3 hours I used to change after every feed but now he’s sleeping longer stretches I change after he wakes, unless it’s in the day, then I’ll leave it a feed and then change on the next one if that makes sense? Mostly because in the night I might not hear him go but would hear him go on the monitor if not in the room so I’d know if he’d done a poo or not x
I change every feed, before the feed!X
I found this, but she got used to the routine of us changing her before every feed. She doesn’t feed in the night now but we I used to do is change her a little before putting her to bed even if I’ve just changed her for a feed x
I change every feed, it’s just a habit now. Wake, change, feed x
I don’t change him I just cover him in sudocrem and then change him around 7am when we wake up, he doesn’t leak!
I don’t change my gal overnight unless I’ve definitely heard her poop! X
I tried not changing my 10 weeks old until the next feed and they leaked! So twice as much work at 4am! I’ve been changing their diapers before the feeds ever since.
I base it on how his nappy feels. He has a habit of pooing after a feed, just after I’ve put him back down, so I normally wait until then to change him 😂
I change my little girl before every feed, unless the wetness indicator is still yellow then I’ll leave it. I wouldn’t want to sit in wet underwear while I ate my meals so I don’t expect her to 😂

I dont change nappy through the night full stop. She stays swaddled all night and sleeps like a dream. She doesn't dirty her nappy until the morning. I did the same with my first and he was the same x
I change before the feed if he's slept quite a while and the nappy is wet, and sometimes after the feed too if he decides to wee throughout the feed 🤣 even throughout the day as soon as I notice the indicator is blue he's getting a fresh nappy on. Hate the thought of him being wet and uncomfortable.
I change if baby’s nappy is full or if he wakes up for feed. If he is not bothered feeding n goes to sleep, I let it but change in first wakeup, even if he goes to sleep after. If dirty then I change but it keeps changing. Touchwood he poops during evening time, initially would poop early mornings.
Nappies are designed to be super absorbent, you absolutely don’t need to change every 2-3 hours overnight. Better to let them sleep and not disturb, unless they’ve done a poo obviously. I’ll usually do one nappy change overnight after about 6 hours and use lots of sudocrem
My sisters got 2 little ones and she told me she didn’t change her babies every time in the night and honestly this was a game changer for me. Sometimes I still change every feed if the baby isn’t alert enough to feed as much as I’d like so will change them halfway through. But having someone say it’s absolutely fine to not change them was like the permission I needed so do what feels right Mama. Also had no nappy rash issues as wee’s don’t seem to bother him if not changed straight away, but poos do so I always change a poo x
I only do a night change if she's pooed or if she's uncomfortable...if I can't get her down after the feed.
I normally changed her nappy then give her feed after, my little girl is the same soon you change her nappy she wide awake for the rest of the night
I always change after the feed and then pop him back on the boob. I think leaving it would just make his skin sore, especially when you think how strong wee can be and stingy. And poos should be changed straightaway. X
I usually change before feed then feed to sleep. However, this weekend we switched to reusable nappies for night time and both nights he slept for 7-8 hours and then i had to wake him to feed because i was so engorged (previously he would wake after 4 hours, then 2 hours later). I think it was the feeling of wet nappies that was waking him up. If this continues then i can’t recommend them highly enough. No leaks, super absorbant so can tell its full of wee but doesnt feel wet on his skin
I don’t change her over night unless nappy is very heavy or if she ever did a poo overnight I would of course do it then too (she’s never done a poo during the night). I use pampers and they work great :)! I tried the f & f nappies recently and I find I normally do end up doing one change with those as there not as absorbent so will be going back to pampers when these run out! I changed my first every feed for a few months but didn’t find that helped either of us with getting enough sleep personally! Neither have had any nappy rash :)! X
I change my daughter before every feed, it's just become a habit. More so my husband remembers to actually change her and he's really gotten out of the habit since my eldest potty trained 😂
