How to deal with incontinence at night?

My husband is totally incontinent at night. He goes through everything. I use extra absorbent depends and a pad and he still goes through.

You may also want to watch his liquid intake after lunch each day, especially if he’s on a diuretic like my husband is. Coffee with supper or in the evening is a no-no. Lots of soda pop, juice, tea or flavored drinks after about 1PM isn't good either.

If you are saying he goes thru the pad then you need a better pad. I have started using the peapod mats and they do work. As long as he does not roll off it.
Much better than washing all of the bedding.
