do you use any protection to bed when on your period?

Question

I woke up the other morning on my period and found I'd leaked on my sheets and I hate when it happens, i usually just use a pad but I must wiggle in my sleep because it doesn't work
I'm just wondering if anyone has any hints or tips 
Hoping I don't get any bad comments like I know I should know but when I was younger I was ill so I barely even had a period

Answer

I use the extra long overnight always purple pads at night, they are really big. I call them horse pads, but they def get the job done. 
When I was younger I would put a towel under me and sometimes double pads.

Answer

I use cloth pads. I can sew them in whatever shape and length I need so I have a few 17 inch overnight pads that flare really wide in the butt so it really covers everything. Before I went cloth I slept on puppy wee wee pads lol

Answer

Honestly, I just use a tampon while I'm sleeping. If my flow is pretty heavy then I put a thin pad on ALSO... just in case. Idk, I just hate pads in general, they're so uncomfortable to me.

Tampon and a pad. Sometimes a towel if its been particularly heavy.

They make pads that are specifically for sleeping and they are pretty great

You could also buy 'puppy mats' and put those on your bed where your leaks normally are, then whatever does leak will be on a disposable pad!
