Cleaning up in morning after bedwetting accident

[cm6768]

Hi everyone,

I wet the bed every night. I wear pin-on style prefold cloth diapers covered with plastic pants. I use Aquaphor to prevent diaper rash. My question is this. I don't like to take showers in the morning - is it okay just to use a perineal cleanser and wipes to clean up instead of showering? Are there any other products in addition to (or instead of these products) that you'd recommend?

Hello there,

I wear plastic/fabric tape on diapers every night. Even nights that I have accidents on, I use wipes to clean everything and then just add fresh powder before putting on a dry diaper/pull up in the morning. Ive yet to experience any negative effects or rash, or any nasty smells. Granted I only have bladder incontinence, if I had bowel incontinence I'd probably shower every morning though.

I only shower, if my urine happens to be exceptionally storng (being dehydrated) or if my skin already had a rash.

Hope this helps, good luck.
