Does this require a waterproof mattress pad or will it be okay without one?

I don't think it needs one. It cleans up easily. But mattress pads do make for quicker clean up especially in the middle of the night.

My daughter is now 6 months old, and I haven't needed a waterproof pad. It's pretty water resistant because it's laminated

It'll be okay without one. Depending how often its peed on. My daughter only peed once but since her comforter is there and her clothes its pretty hard for it to go through it.

It is safe and it is waterproof also. but I still recommend using a mattress pad and crib sheet. Nothing is too good for a precious newborn baby! tthing is

I think it's best suited for body sweat (low volumes of liquid).The pad is coated with a rubberized material on the bottom and it is waterproof, but the terry top is very thin. If it were to be a large volume of liquid, it might end up soaking the entire top, which might then drip down on the sides of the mattress.

I don't know. I have a waterproof mattress pad on it and haven't needed to wash it YET. But, I will be contacting th manufacturer if and when I need to wash it.

Absolutely not. This is really expensive, and waterproof mattresses wipe right off. Also, anything fitted isn't very fast or easy to put on or off a crib mattress when it's in a crib. Much easier to clean the mattress itself. Also, this pad isn't really padded.

As far as I know this is not waterproof. Machine washable. You would have to get a mattress pad that had a waterproof lining

A foldable pad that you can cover with a sheet. My babies have slept on them just fine without any additional mattress added.

It comes with a waterproof pad that is the mattress, you don't need a mattress cover. The sheet that comes in the box fits perfectly. Not sure about any sheets bought separately.

It's very slightly water proof. By that I mean if you spill a little bit and are quick enough you will be able to wipe it before it gets everything wet. It's not made of vinyl, so eventually the wetness will get through to your mattress.

The little "mattress" or pad that comes with the cradle is water-resistant, so strictly for the fear of leaky diapers, you don't need anything extra. However, for comfort, I would put a cotton/cotton flannel cover on it.

The waterproof cover is sewn onto the mattress. There have bed wets with my twin 20mo. Old boys but I wiped it clean and kept going. I have not had any problems. No mattress cover is needed.

No I wouldn't get a mattress pad for it. My daughter sleeps on it without any complaints. It is an air mattress so it isn't squishy like a mattress but it does the job just fine.

Not at all. I do have a standard mattress pad on it though. Nothing special just to protect the mattress. Very comfortable.

We Had A Mattress Pad So We Used It. But I Do NoT Know If You Really Need One. The Top Is A Soft Velvety Top Not Plastic.

This is very thin. I purchased this because a mattress pad is to thick to throw in the washing machine. So, to answer your question, an addition. And this is waterproof.

No it is not waterproof and yes it does breathe! It is the best mattress pad I have ever purchased.
