What to do if incontinence bed pads move at night? 

Incontinence underpads often come with adhesives to help secure the bed pad in place. Before going to bed, make sure to place a new disposable bed pad and remove the adhesive strip covers from underneath the pads. Then, place the pad onto the bed sheet and press down on the underpad. The underpad should be secure on the bed and should not move.

As you sleep through the night, you may find that moisture build-up can cause the pad to move. In order to prevent finding stains when you wake up in the morning, we recommend placing two or more underpads -- “doubling up” -- to make sure that everything is getting absorbed throughout the night. Only you and/or your caregiver knows how much you leak. It is recommended to use your best judgement.
