Bed Protection

What is the best way to protect your bed?

There are several ways to protect your bed. It just depends on how much you want and can spend on it. I use a vinyl zip on cover for mine and got it from Wal-Mart for about $15.00. I also used a quilted waterproof mattress cover that cost about $30.00 from Sears a few years back. If you want to keep it on the cheap side try a shower curtain or a bed pad found in the baby section of most department stores. Most importantly if you plan on wetting while in bed in a diaper protect your mattress! Good luck in your selection.

Poly drop cloths used for painting, rubber sheets and plastic mattress covers are effective mattress and bed protectors.

I have a large rubber sheet on my bed. Sometimes have a cotton sheet over & other times just lay on the rubber.

I've previously tried mattress protectors and cheaper plastic sheets but nothing beats the quality / protection of the rubber if you use your nappy regularly at night.

As for how to protect your bed best. Well you can go to Walmart an get the cheapest vinyl mattress pull on cover there is for under the sheets. But to make sure your well protected. I go to a medical supply store and get those big reusable cloth under pads. Some stores have them for about 12 to 15 dollars. You don't need a lot of them because you can wash them. And they are great if you wet a lot like me.

But if you don't wish to do that, then you can also get a waterproof pad in the baby section at Walmart. Put that on top of the sheet and then put a bath towel on that to catch the biggest part of the wetting. Then when you do the wash . If you don't wish people seeing you washing a reusable bed pad and know you wear diapers, they'll never look twice at a towel.

Mattress covers can be very uncomfortable to sleep on especially in combination with bulky diapers and plastic pants. Better diapers and diapering techniques is the way to go, it also allows your bed mate to have a decent nights sleep without the heat of a mattress cover. 😃

New generation (Just me ) you need to try a blast from the past. Well folded, firmly pinned, double thick night time diapers and plastic pants. You may find they sway your thoughts. Now maybe a young lady to help you with your diapers might be nice.

I find that a good-fitting, well made pair of plastic pants over my disposables works the best.

Absolutely yes, Naughty Elf. Nothing like thick cloth and well-cut plastic.

Just to be sure I have a plastic cover over the mattress, under a mattress cover and often a plastic hospital sheet under me. Guess I am obsessive about keeping the bed clean.

But it’s dream of for me about anyone changing my diapers, only if i get really senile in an institution.

I have a hospital style twin mattress on my bed at school. Have plastic sheets on my Queen size bed at home.

I put pads down and wear heavy duty diapers, and i also have a commode just in case..good luck

Probably a plastic sheet, or just good diapers, in my experience

OMG there is nothing worse than a pissy smelly mattress. I ruined one when I was younger and my Bottom suffered for it...Mom was not happy at all. From then on it has always been a plastic cover and drawsheets to protect the mattress. Yes they are hot and noisy but well worth not having to buy a new mattress.

You mean besides a diaper? 😉

There are a lot of different items you can check out. One is a bed protector. Its like a diaper but lies flat in your bed. You could also check out some plastic sheets too.

I use a Fitted Vinyl Mattress Protector. I know that they have all diffrent kinds out there. Some have a cloth like cover on it so its not so noisy, but it's just something else to wash if my diaper leaks. Plus they are not expensive either. But it does have to be replaced once in a while too. Only downfall of them is that they are noisy.

I use a plastic sheet, on top of that a regular mattress pad then a regular bed sheet. I put one of these to sleep on with a disposable chux... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001YIB1A/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B0002DMPFS&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0MBXQVYBYZKDAEDFWC7Z

I use to use a plastic or rubber sheet to protect the mattress, however with today's diapers and plastic panties i don't find the need to put anything on the mattress anymore. If I really want to have a very, very wet night - e.g. leak, then i will put a plastic sheet over the mattress.

Hospital red rubber sheeting is the best and traditional method of protecting my bed, just like it was as a boy.

I got some bedding protectors from fetlife, they are cute with babyish animals on them, come in all sizes.

I use a lot of things for this problem. First I use a plastic mattress cover. Then comes a hospital pad that has a waterproof backing that is pink. Then I am diapered with two cloth diapers and topped off with a pair of pink plastic panties. I am then dressed in a onesie on top of this. I am pretty leakproof and ready for bed, mommie does not like leaks

I covered my mattress with a waterproof matress cover. Stevie

I have a fitted waterproof cover and a kylie under my bottom sheet to protect the mattress.

Any sort of plastic protection under the sheets.

I use a PVC fitted sheet under my normal fitted sheet.

I also use cloth diapers.

I always use a pvc or rubber sheet under me and there is a company called fetwear out of the US (New Hampshire) which sells baby print ones.of fair quality, but they do the job, a little pricey but you need them

I have a plastic sheet on my bed. I have a king single mattress which is a touch on the large side so I have a double bed sheet.

I don't use any mattress protection so to speak. My night time diapers with plastic pants over them work very well for me. I also lay on a washable leak protection pad on top.

I use a heavy vinyl sheet on my mattress, and an absorbent mattress pad on that. Nothing gets through to the mattress

I use a plastic matress cover.

Chux pad covered by a large, comfy bath towel.

I've had the best results with a rubber sheet.
