Recommendations How to prevent rash with CD overnight?

I've just started with CD as a first time mom. I have Nora's Nursery pocket diapers with bamboo inserts. My little guy seems fine with them during the day, but he wore one overnight (from about 8pm-5am) and his skin got extremely irritated! Does anyone have tips for preventing this? Would doing 2 inserts help keep him more dry and prevent rashes? I've currently been doing cloth during the day and disposables at night when he goes longer stretches without being changed. It's working okay, but I'd rather do cloth at night, too! I'd appreciate any suggestions:)

If he's waking up wet to the touch, definitely double up on inserts. Also just to note. Nora's Nursery aren't full bamboo. They're bamboo sandwiching two microfiber. They're susceptible to compression leaks.

We do two inserts at night, either the GroVia AI2 Buttah O.N.E diapers or pockets from Kangacare or Lighthouse pocket diapers stuffed with two of whatever is clean - we have 6 layer microfiber inserts, 6 layer bamboo inserts, or a trifolded prefold.

We do a smear of diaper cream and the microfiber liner!
