Can anyone recommend a plastic or vinyl or otherwise leak proof mattress cover? We are getting to the point we don't want to put Zoe in a diaper all night long... but I need protection! We've had one accident and I know there will be more to come. Thanks!

I actually just bought one for MY bed (because of dog accidents and in prep for my water breaking). I got it at WalMart. Queen sized was $11. The twins were cheaper.

We have one on Rebekah's bed but I can't remember where we got it.

I am pretty sure I got ours at Target for $7. Thankfully, we've not had any (if any at all - can't remember for sure) accidents but it makes me feel better knowing it's there in case.

I have several lines of defense... I have a vinyl one that sits on top of the mattress and then one of the padded waterproof ones that goes on top of that and then his sheet. We probably got them at Wal-Mart or Target. They are really cheap for twin sizes :aok:

I bought mine at Sears - for Kaitlyns bed. It's a mattress pad with a plastic layer in the middle of all the *padding*. Machine wash and dry too.


You can use a shower curtain under the bedsheets too. What finally worked for us, in getting Kaitlyn to stay dry all night... is that we take her to the bathroom just before we go to bed at night.

Good luck!

We got ours at Target - I like it because it's not just a mattress cover, but it completely encases the mattress and zips up. Less than $10. :aok:

We got the same one for Riley. $9.99

Thanks guys :) I got by Target yesterday and picked two up. I'll probably put it on today and say BYE BYE to diapers for good tomorrow. :crossfing:
