1. well my daughter had the same thing... they hold there pee i dont get y but they do .. i had to go to a size up (make sure they fit her) and i use pampers .. huggies leak alot
2. I use pampers and they have done the job for me. But here lately i have used the ones froms sams club. they have a club pack, but they work very well. Good luck.
3. my daughter did this, too. i went up one diaper size just for night time (as they hold more liquid), and also put a washcloth in the crotch of her diaper to hold any excess urine. this seemed to do the trick for the most part... there were rare occasions that she still leaked, but it helped tremendously. good luck!
4. Try Huggies
5. We use huggies on our 17 lb. baby. He's going into size 3's very soon. We don't have a problem with leakage. She should be fine in a size 3 Huggies. Make sure you are making them tight enough.
6. I've always bought a size up for overnight. never really had a problem. If she bought seperate packs, Walmart will exchange them. I've done it plenty as I'll only use Pampers swaddlers at first. Anytime someone gives me something else, I thank them and then go exchange them. I rarely have a receipt and they still take them. Good luck!!
7. I use Pampers, we used to use Huggies, but they leak.. Pampers are great!! at 18lbs, she wont be in a size 3 much longer
8. Well I always say change to cloth diapers. A bamboo or hemp diaper with a wool or fleece cover works wonders for overnight! If you aren't willing to go that route (poor baby!) then I do have another solution for you. I recently started using gDiapers for outings. They are a cloth pant with a snap in liner and big pads you tuck in for absorption. You could buy a package of the absorbent pads and fold them down into your regular diapers to make them better for night. See the link below, it has folding tips!
9. We had to start using Luvs or Pampers at night because they are the only ones our son doesn't leak thru. Huggies always leaked on him.
