My wife is using an overnight diaper, which holds up to 10 hours of production. She usually sleeps 12 hours which means the bed is wet every morning. I am using underpads to absorb the extra, but even that is sometimes not enough. Has anyone come up with a solution? Maybe two diapers? That thing that wicks away urine is way to expensive.

I’ve been caring for my 86 year old mother for over 2 years. Follow me for tips! 😂

But I agree with everyone else that 12 is too long, she can always sleep again after you change her.

Or you wake her 6 or 8 hours or so into her sleep to get her to the bathroom to change her.
If you have not already limited her fluids early then you can try that.
There are liners that you can place inside the disposable brief (aka "diaper") but it has to be one that is intended to be used as a liner. Other "pads" have a leakproof backing that will inhibit absorption.
