Well I finally got a duvet cover and I must say it makes me feel a little more comfortable knowing that if I do have a leak which happens more often than not that I want have to wash the duvet. It is a little noisy to sleep under though but I'm sure I'll get used to that.

Is it a waterproof duvet cover or is it just that your leaks are so slight that a single layer is enough to keep the duvet dry?

If you go to babykin's online you can buy a real nice cotton t-shirt feeling sheet material that has a noise less water proof barrier sandwiched between the two sides , you buy it buy the yard and it is awesome stuff,I have been sleeping on this stuff for the 10 years , my mattress has an irregular shape being I have bumpers and grab points built into it (the bumper keeps me from hurting myself during a seizure or falling out , the grab points are to help me transfer from my wheelchair ) so I bought enough of it to make sheets by sewing cheap hospital bed sheets to the ends to tuck in , you can also make great pillowcases and comforters and such out of it , and a normal person would not know it was any different than a luxurious sheet. It comes in white but can be died to any color.

It's a waterproof duvet cover. My leaks vary from night to night and have to wash the duvet every few days, that's why I got the cover.

Thanks Tetra I'll look into that as well doesn't hurt to have more than one cover

My wetting isn't completely uncontrolled at night but the big production of getting out of bed, removing my diapers to use the toilet is just too much. I wear a heavy cloth pull-up diaper ( most of the time with a cloth insert and a "disposable diaper liner" (to make BM clean-up easier) along with heavy gauge plastic pants I seldom experience leaks. I do use a comfortable cloth bed pad with a water proof backing to catch any leaks if they do occur. We all eventually find what works for us.
