have you tried the disposable covers for mattress? Used them as my son had a few wet nights after illness, but he did not want a mattress cover as he felt he was a big boy not a baby, he did not know I had put this under his sheet. They can work out expensive but better that than a wet mattress. Hope all goes well, your doing a great job caring for these two girls.

I used change mats under the sheets on my kids beds. They are from pampers i think and are supposed to be like portable change mats. You just chuck em when they have been used. They dont make the kids sweat like the plastic sheets. you sound like you doing a great job and good on you for being so understanding. these kids go through hell you deserve a pat on the back!!
