My Mom is very small with very small legs. The grocery store brands are aimed more for daytime use. If you look online for a medical supply company you will be able to find a much greater selection with a better fit and varying levels of absorbency.
Look specifically for overnight protection. They focus on providing more absorbency and a better fit to protect from leaks for up to 8 hours.
Try a few different brands until you find one that meets your Mom's needs. The various companies will send you samples to try if you contact them.
It's worth trying a few different brands to make sure that you're getting what you need.
It's truly been a no-win situation for my mother with this issue. Thankfully, she's in Memory Care and has an entire team of overnight care givers to help her with everything. And to change the soaked bedding every morning.
Also, keep her hydration either consistent or heavier during the day. She may have enough fluid that she doesn't need any pre bedtime rehydration.
