Mine broke in bed & due to the circumstances (I was 31wks pg at the time) was flown straight to Melbourne not to see home or my bed for almost 3weeks. Needless to say I don't think DH cleaned anything up as he came home had 3hrs sleep & then drove to Melbourne to be with me & nothing here has rotted away ~ maybe I didn't get loads on anything else except my knickers, the pad & my pj bottoms??????

Do know that I made sure I had a couple of towels under my bum in the car, but when we got to the hospital here the midwife made me walk all the way up to the maternity ward & a trip in the elevator & the whole time I was still leaking rather madly!!! Think my sneakers caught most of that though!! & they never rotted away either. 8-[
