A member asked:
My 6 months baby sleeps for 9 hours straight at night and wakes up with no wet diaper. . is that ok? she feeds 5oz and goes back to sleep 3 more hours

Hard to say: Unless you use cloth, it is hard to say if they wet or not unless you weigh the diaper.Most available disposables are designed with material woven into the fabric that pulls away moisture.If concerned, a square of toilet tissue placed over the genitals will show evidence of a wet when checked. If the kid is otherwise thriving, this is probably ok.
