[crazytown]

Hi all of a sudden ds has dry morning pull ups.

Want to order a mattress protector as may go for it and take them off next week. Cant believe how many they are ranging from £5-30!!!.

Also some people put double on dont they? Just want advice on if I should double protection and what cover I shoudl buy. THanks

Hi - I would go for a cheap mattress protector and use those pampers care mats on top - then if there is an accident, you can whip the care mat off the bed and the protector is still there - saves changing the whole bed at 3 am !

Agree with wrongside - cheap mattress protector under sheet, care mat on top. Re-use care mat till it gets wet or you discover DS is properly dry, at which point I will be

thanks - so I put the mat on top of the protecter then his normal sheet?

Hey its come all of a sudden the last few weeks he's been soaking in the mornings!

Nope, sheet on protector, mat on sheet should do it. Then if you have to sort him out in the night, you can just replace the mat, and if necc take the sheet off to and put the mat on the protector till morning. If that all makes sense?

i beg to disagree - found the care mat gets all rumpled if on top - I put on top of protector - underneath sheet - slightly more hassle to change but worked ok for us !

yes - my ds wouldnt sleep on the mat, so I think I will put this on top of protecter under the sheet
