In your opinion, what is the best overnight bladder control pull-ups and plastic pants for your LO? My dad is a heavy wetter and we haven't found much to keep the wetness out of the bed.  Thanks.

    Have you tried the Abri Flex pull-ups? I get them from Amazon. They hold a lot of fluid. Something like 32 oz. I still use a pad underneath the pull-up too.

    No, I think my mom is just using a regular depends, plus a night time pullup as well as an insert all covered with a plastic pants. It's still not holding it all in.
