Reddit reviews A WORLD OF DEALS INC2336R Disposable Blue Underpad 23 X 36, 150/Case

It depends on how "far out" you want to get - but some of my non-baby-item must haves for baby include a:

• stick vaccuum - this comes in handy the minute kiddo becomes mobile. I use mine at least 2x daily
  
  
• chux pads - pre labor, after labor, during diaper changes, in your car, in public. I use these everywhere
  
  
• pop socket for your phone - because dropping your phone on a sleeping newborn infant's head while trying to snap a picture is sad. Ask me how I know
  
  
• wet bags - I use these to organize my diaper bag, store snacks, wet clothes, everything
  
  
• collapsible storage bins - I have these all over filled with toys. It's nice because my son can lean into them to collapse them so he can reach toys at the bottom, as opposed to hard toy boxes where they either cry for you or fall in trying to reach
  
  
• immersion blender - you can turn anything into puree without having to buy a baby specific product, and it'll serve you post-baby as well
  
  Might be weird to put these things on a registry though :'D

I bought these pads from amazon initially to put a pad in my car in case my water would break in the car, ended up ordering a big pack of them for changing the baby out in public. They are not that expensive and will absorb the leaks perfectly:

While potty training my kids, I've found that slipcovered furniture is a lifesaver. Ikea in particular makes lots of machine washable covers so getting them clean is easy. I also use Chucks Pads between the covers and the cushions themselves. They absorb liquid on one side and have a thin waterproof sheet of plastic on the other side. When there are accidents or spills I simply wash the cover, throw the soiled pad away and replace it with a new one. It's great even for people who are just sort of clumsy. Grandma was all upset that she spilled wine on my couch at Thanksgiving until I showed her how easy it was to clean up.

YAYS:

Chux pads, hands down, were the best purchase we made. Those saved us so much laundry and so many diapers. The link is hit or miss - one box we got was great and quilted, the second box was not quilted and they fall apart more easily. Which really sucks because we're not going through several a day anymore, so it has time to really fall apart before it gets soiled. Even the shitty ones are incredibly helpful.

A Haakaa breast milk catcher. Best money I've ever spent. I stopped using it every day at 11 months PP. 11 months of daily use.

An electronic nail file. I cut too close once, and decided I don't ever want to do that again. It's quiet, it has a little light on it, two speeds, and a bunch of different nail heads.

Stacking cups. Don't know why we even have other toys. Did you know you can throw them and chase after them and then throw them again, mom? You can put them inside each other! You can put them in the toy basket and then take them out and then put them back in again! You can knock them down when mom & dad foolishly stack them up! You can clack them together! You can bang them against EVERYTHING!!

This inflatable tub. It has a little shoehorn for the crotch so you can use it before baby can totally sit up by themselves. We're still using it because my child is dead set on committing suicide in the bathtub.

Sleeved bibs. Or as we like to call them, eatin' ponchos. We got some "art smock" cheaper ones to alternate with, but the Bumkins one is 👌👌👌 so much better. The art smocks are fabric-y on the body, so they stain.

A ring sling. No link because I actually borrowed from my local babywearing community. But I checked out a ring sling back to back to back. My chonker outgrew the Moby wrap I had (which was super hot and a PITA to get on and off) by 3 months when I finally discovered ring slings. Ring slings are like the cool, breezy older sister.

A yoga ball. We spent hours bouncing our child.

NAYS:

This Graco Swing. Well, any swing, but this is the one we had. Of the several swings at daycare, my baby tolerated one kind...for a few minutes. Obviously this is a my baby thing.

A walker. We got one used from a garage sale before we realized they're not really recommended for babies anymore.

Any chew-toy specific type teether.

It's a wild ride, but it's essentially a straw, lube it up with vasoline and insert(read/watch the directions as well though). Watch where you aim it, and expect things to go to hell occasionally. We use these to protect the changing table and build a containment area.

I'm confused as to why everything else is 'bodypart'-frida, but these aren't assfridas?

Puppy pads are usually scented. The ones that come from a medical supply are much better. We bought a ton of these when we had our LO. They ended up being useful in more ways than one.

Yes! This 150 pack lasted me nearly two years, including travel where I had to use them on airport floors, across my lap in the airplane seat, in the back of rental cars, etc. They even catch and instantly absorb free-pees!

Not an answer to the question that you asked, but:

Cover your mattress with a waterproof plastic cover. Under the mattress pad and sheets, you won't even be aware that it's there.

You can buy, from Amazon, "chucks": large disposable large squares of absorbent material that they use in hospitals all the time. Better than a towel, and you don't have to wash it - just chuck it!

You shouldn't be ruining your mattress or sheets.

I hope you get the healthcare part sorted out. I'm sorry this is happening to you.

I know you probably can’t use amazon but here is what a chuck is disposable and washable. The washable ones seem to last a bit over a year and a half, but would probably last much longer if they were air dried. They make it easy to lift someone to slide them up the bed, but the disposable can’t be used that way.
