    J & A are day trained, but still wear a pull-up at night. And almost every night they leak. I've tried the largest size pull-up - no luck. I've tried the size small-medium Goodnight, but they boys are too small (read:skinny) and the waist and legs just gap. We make sure that they urinate before going to bed. And they rarely drink after supper. We are stumped as to what to buy for overnights. We are reaaaallllly tired of washing sheets almost everyday.

    Pull ups are designed for true diapering, more of an accident catcher. They're just not nearly as absorbing as regular diapers. If they aren't starting to train overnight, I'd go back to regular diapers or overnights.

    Since there day trained, and getting to be big boys. It might be time to start night times(hard as heck).
    You said very little to no juice after supper...how long is it from supper to bed? Could be the issue. Encourage them to pee as soon as supper is done...at least 3 more times before bed(at times they will say nothing to come out, but when they sit it will). I know we cut juice or drinks out totally after supper till they caught on to night time training. Took about a month. Our time from supper till bed was 3hours. Now they get a small drink for snacktime.

    Pullups are evil. I found no matter when we used them they'd leak a bit.

    I use the overnights, which are meant to hold the night time amount of urine. We've rarely have a leak, and it's more the moving of a child while putting it on and it's on crooked! LOL

    I have one that's potty trained and the other isn't. We tried him without the overnights one night, and he had an accident. We tried for a week, and accident each night, but now I get him up to go pee before I go to bed and at 3:30 in the morning. We've only had one accident since I've started this routine.

    Oh, just went back and reread your posting- they make diaper type pulls ups called "easy ups" from Pampers. Try them, maybe they'll be smaller in the legs for your boys.

    Good luck!
