I have mattress protector then sheet, but to be honest I didn't find that the sheets got wet or anything. i did put a nappy underneath her head for a couple of months but I don't worry about it now. I fold the flat sheet in half then have it tucked up down the end so it can only come up as far as her chest/just below her shoulders. I did look up short sheeting but that was too hard..lol
I woudn't worry too much about the underlay getting wet/dirty if you have a flat sheet over the top of it, so if it was me I would probably go underlay, protector, sheet, only because that's what we have on our bed! If you are worried about her chucking I would put a terry towelling nappy under her head, mine didn't reach from one side of the cot to the other but I did tuck it in on one side. Now that her hands are grabbing everything I don't use the nappy, she doesn't chuck much overnight now anyway so haven't had any spews on the sheets!
