In comparison to hemp liners, how well do these work for heavy wetters overnight?

In my opinion they work best! My little guy is a heavy wetter and these have held him overnight. My husband and I place 2 liners in his diaper and they hold pretty well. Using two didn't make the diapers too bulky at all. These are more absorbant to us than the bamboo or hemp.

These are more absorbant than hemp in my opinion. You still want to double them with another liner such as microfiber though.

I'm not sure. I haven't used hemp liners. These are very thin and SO absorbent (they fool you). I actually resort to disposable diapers at night time because my little guy is such a heavy wetter, that no amount of cloth diaper padding keeps him dry overnight. We use a large microfiber with 2 layers of bamboo for naptime, however, and that seems to do the trick. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Hmm....These work well overnight if you double up on them. I really like these for daytime use as a single liner. I also really like the bamboo 4 layer ones by the same company. Both are top notch. If using overnight without a change, I would use more than one. If changing at night, then these can go about 3-4 hours with a heavy wetter in a single layer. I don't have hemp liners, so cannot comment on that part.

If you are talking about the thin hemp liners then these hold much more. We use one of these on top of 2 thin bamboo liners and dont ever have leaks with our heavy wetter at night. He easily goes 12 hours without an issue.

Hi Megan- I also bought these to use over my child's underwear at bedtime, as he is fully potty trained in his conscious hours. Unfortunately, they did NOT keep the wetness in. They leaked pretty much every night. If the elastic around the thighs and stomach are tight enough to hold back wetness, then they hurt him. If they were remotely comfortable, they leaked. These are basically useful for those kids who are almost making it to the potty, but needs those few extra seconds. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I found that they generally kept me dry. I used them for cold weather 'wave running' so water gets everywhere but with good socks these worked very well. I would recommend them as the best thing I have found.

Hemp can absorb a lot, but they are slow absorbing. It should be used behind another insert, like a prefold or microfiber.

Great liners, and they work amazingly for their thinness. I just used these for winter camping up in the North Woods of Wisconsin. During four days in the great outdoors, using these in conjunction with non-insulated windproof gloves, my hands stayed warm and toasty. Even after my gloves got wringing wet, my hands stayed warm. Wrung out the gloves, put them back on, felt the cold dampness for a minute ,than the liner started doing its job, trapping body heat and keeping moisture away from my skin. Wearing the same gloves without the liners, while stringing Christmas lights for 4 hours, my hands used to get cold, but not anymore. These things really work.

I bought liners for my dog's urinary incontinence, but the liquid is never contained to the liner because of her movement, etc., so I'm not sure the investment was worthwhile. As soon as I run out of liners I'll know for certain - but it seems that the absorption layer will be sufficient.

I used both and seems like they both work, but the Wet and Forget maybe a bit quicker. Neither are instantaneous. If you have real heavy stuff, it takes an extra spraying and time period. Had heavy stuff on a LP Gas tank about 1/2" thick. Took 2 years without touching it, but it is gone. I bought the concentrated in both brands a couple of years ago.

Actually, these are 55 percent hemp, 45 percent cotton. I have never tried using these alone, but would guess that you could. Thirsties does sell an insert that contains a hemp insert and microfiber insert that snap together. This is a great product. This is the insert that I always reserve for night time use since it contains eight layers of hemp/cotton and is super absorbent.

They could be used along, but are more effective under microfiber. Hemp absorbs a lot but slowly, so the microfiber helps to absorb the initial liquid quickly.

Hello,These drops work excellent when you are in areas were the water is not drinkable. I have used these all over the world- traveling and hiking. Enjoy!

I actually use these for light stress incontinence since I am post menopausal. I keep them in a zippered net lingerie bag which I throw in the washing machine with my light colored laundry but I air dry them rather than use the dryer since I wasn't sure if they would shrink or not. I have seen suggestions on keeping a covered container of soapy water in the bathroom to hold them until you do your laundry, but I haven't done that since mine don't get very soiled. I can't answer your question about whether 3 will last for a heavy period day.

There's not a sizing guide as far as I know. Pantyliners are small, and might be good for the very beginning or very end of a cycle. Or if you have very light flow, they'd probably be fine. The standard pads should be adequate for regular to slightly heavy flow. The overnights are great for heavy flow or nighttime. The way you control how absorbent the pads are is with the inserts. I use no inserts if I'm waiting to start, or if I'm at the tail end of my cycle. I use one insert for the beginning and when I start to slow down. During my heaviest times, I use two inserts, and a nighttime pad at night. If you need something extra long, you can go for the postpartum pads, which are ridiculously long, but extremely useful if you toss around in your sleep.

We put these inside our son's Naty diapers at night due to him having pee-pee blowouts. We're not sure if they'd last the whole night (our son wakes up to eat once), but they certainly have nearly eliminated blowouts. I will be honest in saying that we switched over to disposable overnight diapers as he has started to sleep through the night and we didn't want to risk it. But overall these were a huge help and we recommend them.

I don't think that it will help with the bedwetting issue. Sure Fit does sell Quilted Suede waterproof covers - you might try that.

Yes these should work fine. It does help with heavy incontinence during the night

Yes they are great because you can remove them with plastic diapers on so they stay dry and/or change the pad. You have the benefit of the diapers for any big "accidents"and the changing or removal of pads keep the skin dry. They also wick away moisture to prevent skin breakdown and if arranged well to prevent leaks help keep bed dry overnight if large amount of urine flows out.
