Do they have an Ultimate Crib Sheet for beds? My 4yo DS wets the bed and it's such a PITA to take off and put on the mattress pads. Any suggestions? TIA!

The PullUp isn't enough....kid must pee a gallon a night.

Note to self: limit DS' liquid intake...

We always put a big waterproof pad under the sheet but over the regular mattress pad. That way any accidents were limited to the sheet and waterproof pad. Occasionally the upper sheet or blanket. They were infrequent, so putting something over the fitted sheet was not necessary but the waterproof pad always saved us from having a wet mattress pad and mattress.

We used something very similar to these (http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3046050) (perhaps even these exactly, it's been 6-7 years since we bought them) - sort of centered on the bed from head to foot.

My guys wore cloth diapers, like antsy pants. Much easier to take off a wet diaper, than strip the whole bed.

I use those sheet toppers by one step ahead. then I only have to pull that off and wash that (assuming the top sheet didn't get bunched up and soaked too. Only negative is they are made of non-cotton so can be a little clammy/hot in the summer.

i think the clouds & stars sheets make sets for twin sized beds

we use them exclusively in the crib. i :heartbeat: them big time. changing is a snap

good luck!

I just got back from ikea where I bought 2 fitted mattress pads(14.99 ea) for dd's twin bed. Someone from this board, I think, posted the idea. She makes the bed with 2 pads and 2 fitted sheets. When there is an accident she removes the top sheet and waterproof pad and their is a fresh set all ready. If that makes sense.

I am going to start tomorrow so I don't know how well it will work but it sounded brilliant to me.

yes, this is a great system. i mentioned it another thread where someone asked the same question. i'll try to find it so you can see the other suggestions.

ditto.

Best investment and item I bought when baby was an infant. I'm so happy they make twin bed sheets too.

Even my husband said that these sheets rock.
