Mom,is 89 has slight dementia. Wears a poise pad all day & at nite. She slide off, her bed day before. But, is fine. Except for saying she, heard a man singing with beautiful voice. Her, mind seems good to me. Just, wondered if, nite time bed wetting, going to be a regular thing? Or,hard to say. Pat
Check around, there are health care supply shops that sell *blue sheets* and/or other items to use to keep the bed a bit dryer. If possible don't have your Mom drink any liquid a few hours before bed time.... if she takes night time pills, see if she can take the pills around dinner time.... check with her doctor first.
Moment to moment....I know no other way.
I've been able to keep the bed clean with a waterproof pad, and then disposable bed pads on top of that....but she is always a mess. When this all started happening, I had her tested for UTI's as well, and they're negative. Sometimes it's a normal thing I guess. I've started reducing her liquids toward bed time, and it has helped reduce some of the mess in the mornings. For example, she used to drink an Ensure before bed as a dessert, but it was contributing to the bed-wetting, so now I give her chocolate pudding instead, and she's just as satisfied. Yes, she still has the accidents every night, but they're not as bad. Good luck!
In addition to the great diapers, we put a mattress pad on the bed thatcovers the entire mattress and zips to keep it in place. In addition, we use cotton pads with a waterproof backing that can be thrown in the washer and dryer and re-used. These are more comfortable for her to sleep on than the disposable ones. We also buy these on Amazon. We also use these pads for them to sit on during the day, which keeps the furniture dry, just in case. Good luck!
