Overnights: Use a Wool Cover

I have recently learned that wool covers are fabulous!  I always shied away from wool because it seemed to require more work, it is a bit more bulky, and I thought it was too itchy to use on my baby. 

We first delved into wool as a protective cover over our Eco-Posh Trainers when Elaine was potty training.  She now wakes up dry 95% of the time and no longer wears a cover to bed.

I asked a friend {who is a fan of wool for overnights} what she used under her wool covers.  Her answer surprised me!  She said that she just slips the wool cover right over the pocket diaper.  If anything does leak out of the pocket overnight, the wool is sure to absorb it.  Since then, Nolan has worn a wool cover over his pocket diaper at naps and bedtime. 

So if you just can’t seem to find the right combination for overnights, or if you’re tired of changing the sheets every morning, or if you just have a really heavy wetter and you want to be sure to have enough protection…try a wool cover!
