Leaks at night are one of the biggest issues moms face when using cloth diapers.
Solution; Buy wool for night time to help with leaks. Even if you don't use it any other time. Or
switched to All In One (AIO) cloth diaper for night time. Like, Thirsties pocket AIOs . It double stuffed with either Babyology longies or Sbish pants.
If you don't want to invest much money you can make recycled wool longies (or shorties and soakers).

How Often I change ? Frustrated?
Autumn Beck says about 'How often change baby diaper? '
Why cloth diapers leak during the day?
This was a problem I couldn't figure out in the beginning with cloth diapers.
Unfortunately, in this day of convenience we have been led into thinking that a diaper should last all day or at least until it sagging down to the baby's knees.
If you used disposables atany point and then made the switch to cloth you may have a hard timeadjusting to the absorbency difference. The chemical compound in disposable diapers responsible for absorption can hold up to 300 times its weight in tap water. That is far more than cotton, hemp, or microfiber used in cloth diapers.
It is suggested that a cloth diaper be change every two hours. Oddly enough, I read this to be true of disposables. I will admit though when I used disposables I went a lot longer than 2 hours between changes.If you expect a cloth diaper to last 3, 4, or more hours then you will be let down. Then you will get so frustrated that you may give up on cloth diapers.
Anytime I have had "wicking" it is because I have left the diaperon for toolong. When I make an effort to change my little one consistently(before the point of a wet lap or when I am forced to because she pooped) I am much happier with my cloth diapers.
