Each night without fail I will unknowingly wet myself and each morning I am reminded by my soggy protection that my bladder lacks control. Its actually got to the point now where I would be worried if I woke up dry.
I couldn’t tell you how often or how little or even how much I wet during the night but lets just say its enough to fill the heavy protection I use. Sometimes this is not enough. Thank god for bedding protection. I always make sure I sleep on top of a disposable bed pad and always have a washable bed pad under the sheets. In my mind the disposable bed pad is essential. It catches 99% of leaks and does a great job at catching those tiny leaks that we might not even notice. Yes they can be a bit hot to sleep on, can move about and can rustle a bit but I am so used too them I hardly notice it. They really have saved me during some disastrous leaks.
I don’t change the bed pad each day, only if I know I have had a leak or if I can see the pad is starting break down. It just seems wasteful throwing it away if it hasn’t been soiled.
I’m often amazed at just how wet my nappy is in the morning. Just a shame that my body still wakes me up when I leak!
