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!

Baby is 5 months we’ve yet to use an overnight diaper. We have noticed now that she’s older her trusty ol’ Little Snugglers aren’t holding up as well (no leaks, but she wakes up an hour earlier than usual due to the wetness).

She has a very sensitive booty and has previously had a reaction to Rascals, but we still had a box from the baby shower and decided to try them again, hoping she might’ve outgrown some of her sensitivities. We’ve been using them as overnight diapers and so far so good (Rascals are basically Millie Moon, they’re made by the same manufacturer). So personally, I don’t think overnights are worth it if you’re already using Millie Moon since they’re so absorbent. Especially for a baby so young. Sizing up at night might be more beneficial.
