I think either wool product will work but I'll be honest we don't have any experience. Both my boys are still in bed with me but when we set up their room this summer I think I will get an organic futon mattress for the floor.

I bought washable adult incontinence pads. The kind that nursing homes use and they are FANTABULOUS

Our mattresses stay dry, it's easy cleanup and reusable. I went to the med supply store to buy them.

I use waterproof mattress pads. They are quilted and skirted, just like the non-waterproof varieties. Just a bit harder to find and a little bit more expensive. I don't know if the materials suit your non-toxic requirements. They are cotton tops, but the waterproof fabric inside is most certainly synthetic.

We have a wool puddle pad and it works great

! It has been tested several times, and has worked so well, I'm finally not scared all the time that our expensive, organic, latex mattress will be ruined

. I am fairly certain using a felted wool blanket would give the same results.
Thanks for the recommendation ladies! Also free shipping for MDC mamas this month

. I have a 2.5 y/o whom still has night accidents so we use our nekkie blankie (top keeps him dry; bottom keeps matress dry). You can use felted wool in a pillowcase- but then your LO doesn't stay dry. My guys are both pretty proned to rash and we EC so I wanted something that felt dry.
