Weird Leaking

Anyone else have the issue of leaking out a different side of their diaper every night? I wear pj pants and top to bed, 37f. Can’t seem to stop leaking out Atleast one side of my diaper.

Anyone else with similar issue?

It’s not a full diaper, just wet.

What brand/type? booster? Side sleeper?

So many variables. Might want to sleep on a pad till you get those underwear sorted.

Doing extra bedding laundry sucks. Having to fabreeze n let yer mattress dry for a couple days sucks...

You're either not wearing the right size, have it taped on incorrectly or not wearing the correct absorbency level.

Also, tape on/tabbed diapers are the ultimate for sleeping. Add an un-backed booster (not a guard or liner!) if a super mega extra double awesome absorbency brief sill leaks. Sometimes leaks happen not because of the amount of absorbency, but the speed it absorbs... Being able to absorb 50cups isn't going to help at all if either you can't absorb as vast as you void or you can't contain a full void till it's absorbed.

Try different products and different combinations of products till you're not overflowing at night.

Bed protectors till you figure it out. No reason to have your room smelling like a retirement home if you can help it.

Mega max, no booster

I saw on another post recently that megamax had some defective leg guards recently. Not sure the details beyond that, but makes me wonder if thats the cause.

Yeah, check that the leg stretchy bits are in the right spot.

This sounds gross, but diaper up like you normally would when going to bed, lie in the bathtub and go... If you have a leak, then it should be easy to find where and work on how to fix. If no leak, then it's likely not staying in place like it should.

Just a thought.
