she hadn't wet her pull up in like 2 months so we said no more to the pull ups well last night she soaked the bed. I am so tempted to go back to the pull ups but then another part says we can't go back. I just don't know what to do.
Well, you can't really train for nighttime, so I wouldn't feel bad about going back if you decide to do that. I loathe changing the bed, so I'd probably wait.
Did you give her an hour or two after her last drink before she went to bed? That makes all the difference for DS.

When we went to undies at night I had to wake them up and hurry them into the bathroom. If they woke up on their own we would have a wet bed.
Oh, and ditto this. I would let him wake on his own, but get him to the potty immediately so he wouldn't wet the bed. Now he holds it for a good 30 minutes after getting up most days (he must have a huge bladder!).

Last night might have just been a fluke. Don't get so discouraged after just one accident- give it another shot and see what happens. If it happens several nights in a row then she just might not be ready, but I think it is pretty much expected that you're going to have a few accidents in the beginning. Good luck.
I could only find crib size.. so I'd lay it across the width of dd full size bed at a level where your bum would be in the middle of it... I put it right on top of her sheets so if she had an accident, I'd just change it. I also found blueberry cloth trainers... and put a potty on a towel in her room... she started getting up on her own and using the potty. eventually we moved the potty out of her room.
