Bed Protection

I always use rubbersheets,red ones like they used in hospital in the 70ies. They smell good and they feel good,when you lay down on them....its a very secure protection,exciting before the enema-procedure as well

I've got a PUL mattress cover on our bed and I've gotta say it doesn't work great.

It works to some extent, however if I flood the bed early in the night without waking up, pee will definitely seep through to protector wetting the mattress by morning.

I never wet the bed prior to 6 months ago, but from my first accident until now, the mattress has certainly progressed to look like that of a consistent bed wetter..... Despite being "protected". It doesn't smell unless you burry your nose directly into the mattress, but the stains are definitely getting darker in some spots. My messed up head finds it kinda hot.

Hi Pppants it maybe that your PUL protector has multiple splits in it !

My last plastic pad got so stretched due to my weight and the flexible mattress that a series of slits appeared in the actual plastic inside the absorbant cover, might be worth unstitching one side and having a peek.

I would love to have an actual rubber sheet on my bed. But unfortunately with cats not a good idea. I do although have a bed cover much like the Spartan moisture proof pants that I wear. Mostly for the simple fact is I want to keep my new mattress as new as I can keep it for as long as I can.

MY wife and I were buying a mattress and the man ask if we needed a protector and without missing a beat my wife said yes.

My wife sometimes is incontinent at night so we use a 3x4 foot pad. It';s relatively infrequent that we need it. The pad also is useful for me to help pull her over to the middle of the bed after she gets in (similar to the way hospitals use sheets to reposition people).

As I wet every night, bed protection is required, along with diapers! Have a plastic sheet and like the noise it make when moving on. I'm searching for an hospital mattress with that kind of heavy plastic/rubber protection over it.

I buy the fabric from Babykins it's available by the yard and have a friend make my sheets ,because no one makes sheets that fit , i have a about 3 inch high bumper that's built into the mattress as extra protection , the fabric has a waterproof layer between the two sides although it never moves and most people can't tell its anything but a very nice almost t shirt type fabric ,bbMichael be forewarned those rubberized mattress are somewhat fragile they rip and disenegrate quite easily and to keep the warranty in effect they have to be replaced every year at a cost of $200.

I use a complex rehab bed which to most people it's a padded crib, but i need that level of protection to prevent injury during seizures so I don't break anything well seizing and it's virtually impossible to fall out it's height adjustable so my aide can raise it to a comfortable level for care activities and as added protection drop it completely to the floor so if i do manage to fall out there isn't far to go. It can take all kinds of accessories from a totaly secure enclosure that locks for people with dementia, to 10 point frame mounted restraints for violent / mentally ill patients and everything in between, it's an all purpose care platform for all stages of patient care throughout life , pretty much whatever your need it's all ready there you just need to apply it .the cost of these things is as much as a new car , but are virtually indestructable , it can also do all the cool tricks from elevating your head or feet as well as turning into a giant recliner at the push of a button. The base is made of tan powder coated steel and can handle any blood or body fluid you want to throw at it .

No bed protection. None needed. I use good quality products (Abena, Molicare, Tena, Tranquility, and even Depends at times) with added 'diaper doublers' sometimes, always with plastic overpants (long legged plastic bloomers often or snug fitting pullup plastic briefs). Yes. Yes indeed. Once in a great long while, I do have some leakage but I also wear running pants on top of my protection when I go to bed so they save-the-day on the few times a year when my protection fails me. Still, from time-to-time I do have leakage. NOT enough leakage nor often enough to get-into rubber / plastic / poly under sheets.

When I do have a leak, it will be focused in one spot, in the area of my waist. It will be very visible. After changing my absorbent protection, I will put a large towel, folded in half, over the leakage spot and go back to bed.

I hardly ever leak with my thick cloth diapers and plastic pants, but we have a waterproof mattress pad on the bed just in case.

We do have mattress protector on our bed just in case. There has only been a couple of times my diaper has leaked at night.

We don't have any bed protection either. My wife is so good at changing my diapers, pinning fresh diapers on and very carefully with much loving experience pulls my rubber pants over my diapers, making sure they completely cover my diapers by checking each leg opening and the top of my diapers that we never have diaper leaks. Our sheets are dry every morning, but my diapers are soaked.

I have a vinyl sheet over the mattress and a waterproof bed pad over that and then the fitted sheet. I also use a peapod mat I lay on. If my diaper leaks the peapod mat absorbs the leakage and is easier to clean

I have a PUL bedsheet. For me it is good to know I don't have to worry about my matress, whatever happens in my bed.

I actually built a crib to sleep in. I haven't seen one as nice yet in all the photos I've seen. So when it came time for a mattress it had to be just as nice. I bought a new twin size that came sealed in a heavy plastic bag. I thought it would be a waste to remove it. I also added a plastic zip on protector. I use a cloth sheet on top but bot does it crinkle when you lay down on it. There's no doubt it's set up for a bed wetter.

I did sleep on what my mom called a rubber sheet when I was young and living at home. She wanted to be sure my mattress stayed dry since I wet my bed most nights and wore diapers and rubber pants every night. This was in the 50's to early 60's and mattress were quite expensive. I stopped wetting my bed at 17, but when I came home from college on holidays, she still kept my mattress protected with my rubber sheet, because she knew I liked to wet my pants and still wanted to wear diapers at night.

I had a plastic mattress cover on my bed during potty training and it was very crinkly and stiff. Once past potty training my mom removed it and no longer had the crinkly mattress. The one on my sisters bed was a nice buttery swishy smooth shiny white plastic one. I remember my mom removing the sheets to do wash, So there was her bed with that nice shiny white plastic cover on it. I used to lay on it and rub it hearing all the crinkle and swishy surface wishing I could wear a plastic panty made of the same plastic at the time.

I have had a mattress made by a local company that is water resistant and I cover it with a mattress cover. One of my hated items a stained mattress.

Since Im not a bedwetter and always awake when I wet my diaper in bed, I use a medical disposable protection 60x90, and put it under me before I pee in the diaper.

I often remove it after I have peed , if there is no leakage.

It can be reused many times before I switch to a new one.

When i lived with my X she had heavy periods and ended up staining our first mattress pretty bad and i may have had my fair share of accidents too so when we bought our next mattress we bought a zip on waterproof mattress protector. i would use disposable chux pads but she refused because she wasn't like me and didn't need diapers on or under her! So every mattress i slept on from that time on had a waterproof zip on protector but i still used my disposable chux pads to save laundry in case of any accidents.

if there is no leakage. It can be reused many times before I switch to a new one.

I do the same i have my A team chux and B team (reused) chux pads, as long as you don't leak, tear it, or rip it they can be used for multiple days.

A disposable diaper is the main protector, but when I slaap at sister’s house she mostly puts down a pad on my mattress.

Having enjoyed various wives and girlfriends who have a tendency to lubricate, and or squirt liberally. I have pads that I put under the sheets to protect the mattress.

We bought a mattress cover that seals the mattress that makes it bed bug proof and pee proof. What I like is that shows my pee stains but protects the mattress.

I have a proper rubber sheet. They are not easy to find these days.

A large waterproof protector that we can use when we are a bit kinky
