This is a red flag mom. She has been affected emotionally or a physical illness/issue.

I wouldn't use diapers on her. I would support her in every effort to feel good about herself as well as spending time with her to hear her if she wants to talk. Kids don't open up freely to parents when they need them the most.

As for the bed, what is a few sheets? I would suggest strongly that you place a plastic cover over the mattress, followed by a thick quilted mattress cover that is soft on top and lined with plastic as well.

I hope all is well with her and that you get to the real issue with her with deep understanding that she must be humiliated that is occurs so your quiet understanding is really badly needed.

Please don't put a 12 year old in a nappy!!! She will be embarrassed enough as it is! Try looking in to the reason of why she's started wetting the bed it is usually a sign that something is worrying or upsetting them. Teach her how to wash her own bedding if it's so much hassle that way at least she can just sort her own self out.
