As per the suggestions of all you woolly goddesses over here, I ordered an Aristocrat (BTW, I ordered it Friday 11 am and it was in my box on Sat., from Nicky's diapers. It helps that she's in Madison WI and i'm in chicago). But I forgot: what's a diaper to use at nighttime with the 'crat? Do people use prefolds at night? I think N.T. would soak through it before he reached REM sleep :). He is a SUPER SOAKER. When we use pockets, we only use hemp inserts, and all of our PFs and fitteds are hemp. Any suggestions for an in stock night time diaper that doesn't require me to dip into NT's college savings fund?:)

How about a Happy Hempy's hemp pocket? You can use all your hemp inserts with Hempy's to get just the right absorbancy. They are $12 for a regular dipe and $13.50 for fleece lined ones. If you want to save even more you should check MDC TP and DiaperSwap, I see them for less than $10 ppd/dipe there from time to time.

We used hemp prefolds and Firefly Sleep Tight hemp fitteds with DD.

Both worked great overnight with an Aristocrat :)

i dont have an aristocrat but i do have a super soaker. i have a benjamuffin that i use with a stacinator and it works great. i just asked her to make both of the soakers hemp. he has a butt the size of texas but it holds up.

I'm on the Happy Hempy bandwagon, too! Get the fleece lined one. You get the conveinence of a pocket with the stay dry lining, combined with breathability. I have trouble keeping thick nighttime fitteds, like Benjamuffins or Firefly Sleeptights buildup free, but not the Happy Hempy. I got mine at www.lilbunz.com (she's in Michigan, so super fast shipping, too), but lots of retailers carry them.

I use a bulky fitted with a Joey Bunz topped with a huge fleece liner on nights where DD has exhausted our other "nighttime" diapers. It works really well, and then you don't have to buy a specialized diaper.

are the happy hempys good for a super soaker? are they as absorbent as a benjamuffin? do they make for a trimmer fit then the benjamuffin? i hate how big ds's bum is in the benjamuffin.
