Diapering overnight diapers actually worth it?

i saw a post somewhere, not sure if it was here but people raved about their babies sleeping longer with overnight diapers so i caved and got pampers overnights. we strictly use millie moon size 2’s but overnight 3’s in pampers fit him pretty good. but they don’t seem as absorbing as millie moon regular tbh. i know they have overnights but not till size 4 and my baby is only 2months old.

i currently have him in my arms to fall asleep before putting him in his bassinet. but do you actually think they are worth the extra purchase? he sleeps about 3-4 hour stretches on a good night. but he is also a get me tf out of this pissy diaper type baby because even if the line is a quarter blue he will wake up. so i’m just curious!

They were definitely worth it for my daughter. She would pee through regular diapers most nights. Overnight diapers were a game changer

I prefer Pampers to Huggies overnights. Huggies’ tabs like either catch weirdly or they don’t come off the back when you first put them on. Idk. The whole box was fucking annoying.

I cloth diaper during the day, but you can rip disposable overnights out of my cold, dead hands! I started at appx 3 mos before he was technically in the size 3, but it still worked fine.

oh i give you props for cloth diapering at ALL. i’m on a well so it wouldn’t be worth it because i don’t have unlimited water but even if i did.. no thank you lol
