Wetting In Bed And Not Leaking

[Jen Harris]

Regardless of the diaper I wear, when I wet in bed, I always seem to leak. Is there a trick to avoiding this?

Hi Jen -

I only seem to have that issue when I either wet alot during the night and do not put on enough cloth diapers to hold all of it or when I wear disposable diapers and sleep on my side.

Good News! The best cure I found was to tuck a cloth baby diaper in the back (and front) of the disposable diapers or just take baby diaper pins and pin two baby diapers in a circle just above the disposable around my waist so that if I really got "going" and the disposable did not hold up then I had an extra margin of protection.

Of course, a good pair of pastic or rubber panties are a must, I like the higher backed ones for night (obvious reason) or a size large pair than you wear during the day which 99.9% of the time work to keep the bed dry.

As far as the mattress I use a full coverage protector one that I put a bed pad on top, then I sleep well knowing that I will only get the sheets wet and the pad which are easy to change if I leak.
