Someone recommended placing a wee pad under the sheet in my toddler's bed to contain nighttime accidents while potty training. Would these be too thick or stiff for that purpose? Don't want to make the bed uncomfortable.

I honestly don't know, but since you have a toddler, I think that sounds like a good idea! They are thicker than other puppy pads, but most pads are pretty thin. These are wonderful;, and I don't think would be too thick at all. There is one size that is larger than these. I would definitely try them! They come in four sizes mine is the next to largest. The largest would probably be great for a toddler bed. Good luck! If you try them, write back and let me know if they worked! :-)

The link below is to a sheet that fits pretty well. It's not perfect because the sheet is for a rectangular bassinet but this bassinet pad is a little rounded. I think it works great. I use a waterproof pad between the bassinet pad and the sheet. My little guy goes a lot and we have had a lot of leaks trying to find a diaper that works. The bassinet pad is washable, which is nice.Carters Easy Fit Jersey Bassinet Fitted Sheet - Carters Easy Fit Jersey Bassinet Fitted Sheet, Sage (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

I have hard wood floors and I lie the baby on it and it doesnt seem to bother her. About the thickness of the mat its not like a gym pad. Its more like a bed comforter thickness.

Hi Megan- I also bought these to use over my child's underwear at bedtime, as he is fully potty trained in his conscious hours. Unfortunately, they did NOT keep the wetness in. They leaked pretty much every night. If the elastic around the thighs and stomach are tight enough to hold back wetness, then they hurt him. If they were remotely comfortable, they leaked. These are basically useful for those kids who are almost making it to the potty, but needs those few extra seconds. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I actually have not put my on and this is the reason. A friend of mine has a set and hers are often not where they are supposed to be, but she is OK with that. I would not be OK with that. I plan to purchase those devices that hold sheets securely to a mattress and use them under the seats. I can think of no other way. Amazon has several of these devices and most are adjustable.

Yes I think so! When my LO was tiny I used this and a sheet on top. Now I just use this padded sheet alone for confined playtime.

I didn't wash before, but I was desperate to protect my bed from my potty training toddler. It worked well, when it was tested later that night. And I put mine in the dryer, no shrinking, but it takes two full cycles to dry! And that is with an extra spin cycle in the washer. But I love the sheet. I use it in addition to a hospital bed pad, as its easier then washing and drying the full sheet every day. But I know my mattress is safe.

Babies r us has a pad that you could fit under the fitted sheet. It won't look pretty but it will give waterproof protection. They come in various sizes.

No, regular sheets are fine......and I also used a mattress pad under the sheets

Think of it as a square cut out of a padded mattress cover with plastic backing. It protects beds from human excrement so should protect a rug from a little pooch 's "accidents " and around and under the tray. My concern about using it INSTEAD of puppy pads would be confusion. Little guy might think other "fabrics " might be lofty pads.

I used toddler sheets... To be honest this bed really isn't worth the money.... If you lived in las Vegas I would give you mine.

I put a pad on top of mine, but I don't see why you couldn't just put a sheet directly on it. For me though, I like having an extra layer to protect the mattress in case of spills or other random messes.

I wrap the pad with a crib sheet that my daughter is used to and instead of putting it underneath, I just put it inside. She sleeps great in it while camping and on vacation!

I recommended this for my daughter who is also potty training her little girl. They have deep pockets so it should fit over any mattress. I do not dry it in a hot dryer but on a lower setting.it does not make you hot at night. I highly recommend it.

Joy, we don't use a sheet. The pad is on the outside/underneath, so there is no place to put a sheet. We gave our son a blanket (but it gets a lot warmer in the pea pod than in the room) that he can use if he wants.

Hi Nisha,We purchased this bed for our 45lb pit/terrier mix and she loves it. The pad that comes with it isn't great but it isn't horrible. The pad is about 3-4 inches thick but the bottom is hard so that the bed keeps it's shape so I have considered buying the pad that goes with this bed. What I do is put a couple towels and blankets in the bed so she has more comfort. I would consider this bed more for keeping the dog out of your bed but u may have to add to the bedding for more comfort. Hope this helps!

I would not. They deflate pretty easily. For example, any night my 3-year-old son ended up resting his head over it, it was completely flat by the morning.It worked great to train him to not fall off the bed. But I wouldn't use it on my 6-month-old baby or anyone larger than maybe 40lbs. Maybe a foam roll or memory foam body pillow that you can tuck under the sheets? That's what we use when visiting at my parents' house. I hope this helps.
