Two things that you need to take into consideration. How many times do you wet during the night, and the design of the diaper. Diapers that don't have gathers at the waist are more prone to leaking. If you drink lots before going ninis and wet a lot, you should use booster pads, or two diapers. If you use two diapers, cut slits in the backing sheet of the innermost diaper so that it leaks into the outer diaper. That way you get more wettings per change, but that tends to be expensive. Boosters are nice, but they don't hold as much as two diapers.
Another thing is HOW you sleep. If you sleep on your side, you have to have a diaper that has padding on the side, or it will leak.
Cloth diapers over disposables are a good way, and then plastic pants over top of those. The cloth diaper catches the leaks of the other diapers, and the plastic panties keep it contained, but you need to wash those diapers like every day.
You can get Baby-Pants diapers and plastic pants, which are a pretty good deal, at Baby-Pants.com.
