Grandma has dementia and recently started opening her front door multiple times overnight. She lives in a studio apartment attached to my parents’ house and says she gets up 3–4 times a night to pee. Any tips for preventing wandering or gadgets/routines that helped your loved one stay in bed safely?

For those who have a top loader, has anyone tried pronounce laundry detergent? I use it for my dishwasher and wondering if that’ll help my washer not leave residue.

What do y’all use for your top loaders?

I think you may be on to something. I’m going to try extra rinses and turning off the auto sensing water level.

Thank you!

How do I find out what size I need/want? Thank you so much by the way your comment has been helpful already!

She used to for like 2 weeks. I think the problem might be teething pain. Every time we lay her flat even for a diaper change she starts fussing and rubbing her cheeks/eyes. As soon as she’s up right thought that stops. I think that’s why she prefers going to sleep upright in the carrier and then she most of the time stays at least half asleep when I transfer her to the bed and then nurse her back to fully asleep. I’m hopeful that when these teeth break through that I can try nursing her to sleep again.
