Washable nappies in larger sizes

Hello everyone

My son, who is diagnosed with ASD, has always wet the bed. He's nearly 10, and he's not been wearing nappies since he was 6. The daily laundry is just getting too much for me. I've come to accept that this is just how it's going to be for a while longer - until he starts caring about being dry, it's just not going to happen.

I kow there are pjama pants style nappies, but I'm looking for the washable terrys type. It'll be cheaper and better for the environment. I can't find anything in large enough sizes though.. I've googled it to death and come up with nothing.

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

P&S Healthcare do washable night-time boxers. My 14 year old wears them as he still wets every night. They take a bit of drying but other than that they are great!

I got some night time undies - from mother of eden in size 8-10 to put over a washable or disposable pad but I think this size is hard to get now. They take a while to dry.
What revoultionised my life is a waterproof duvet (from Amazon of all places). OK I still have to change all the other linen but the duvet only needs a wipe and a dry cover. Ds is 10 too and I know what you mean about resigned to the daily washload!!
