  1. Like Alf, I had a lot of soiling accidents as a kid - in my case, until I was 9 or 10. As a result, numerous babysitters threatened to put me in diapers, though none of them did. My dad would yell at me and spank me whenever I messed, and one day he lost it and told me he was going to the store to get me Pampers. I freaked out and stayed in my bedroom crying the rest of the day. My mom didn't know what had happened, so when I told her about it she said not to worry. She must have talked him out of it because instead of getting diapers, I went to the doctor. They did some tests and discovered I was allergic to milk and that was causing the problem. I stopped drinking milk and that ended my accidents. The funny thing is that ever since I was 3 or 4, I was fascinated by diapers and wanted to wear them again. But fantasy and reality are two different things and when I was faced with the prospect of having to wear them to school and around my friends I didn't want any part of it.
  2. I have a Priva Ultra Plus Waterproof Sheet Protector (look on Amazon.com) that's really nice. It has a waterproof backing and a quilted top layer. I put it between the mattress pad and top sheet. Other than my side of the bed being a little softer I don't even notice it's there... it's not hot like others I've used. I think there are a couple sizes available - I got the 34" x 52" which is nice and big.
  3. RocketKid (and others ), I've had a change of heart about cloth-covered disposables. Not so much because of the cloth but because they actually just weren't absorbent enough and the odor control was lacking. I started stuffing them with baby diapers but still found myself changing way more often than I wanted to because I was afraid of leaks and odor. So a few weeks ago I started wearing Molicare Super Plus (yes, even to work!) and they are so much better. I drink a couple cups of coffee in the morning and they cope with that quite admirably. I change around 10:30 or 11:00, and am set until around 5:30 or 6:00. Most days I only use 3 (and I'm 24x7), but some days I use 4. They're the only diaper I've used where all of the padding gets wet before they leak. I've only had two leaks, and both times I was deliberately pushing the limit to figure out what the maximum capacity is. Even though they're quite a bit thicker than the Assurance, my wife says they're only a little thicker under my jeans and that you would have to know what to look for to notice them. You might want to consider trying them if you haven't already... the plastic backing is quiet, the tapes hold great and the refastening system actually works (one time only, which for me is enough). I know you said you're not looking for extended wear but if your main reason against that is smelling like pee I don't think you'll have that problem with them. And since you have a private area to change, you don't have to worry about the sound of the tapes peeling off the diaper and such. I get mine from XP Medical - they ship discretely and you can order a sample pack too. Regardless of what you decide, good luck... I know how hard it is to find just the right diaper.
  4. I agree with Dude's jeans comment -- I've been wearing Molicare Super Plus's 24x7 for the past few weeks. Since they are a bit thick, I bought jeans one inch larger around the waist and a bit looser cut than I would normally wear. I went for a darker wash jean which also helps conceal them, so unless someone is really looking and knows what to look for you can't tell. When the diaper is really wet it does sag a bit but by that time I'm off to change anyway so it hasn't been an issue.
  5. Check out this video - it takes some practice and you may have to open the diaper from the front instead of the back but it works very well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IQpDzXYuAo
  6. I'm quite late to this post but it's a good topic! I've recently decided to wear 24x7. I've been wearing at night and occasionally all weekend for the last 20 years but have finally realized and accepted the fact that I need diapers. Not physically, but emotionally Anyway, back to the topic at hand! With wearing to work I need something that's both effective and discrete. I'm willing to change a couple times a day, but I want something with cloth backing -- which I normally can't stand either! That said, being able to change without a tell-tale diaper crinkle is important. So I've been on something of a quest for a good daytime diaper with cloth backing. This week I've tried the cloth-backed WalMart Assurance (maximum absorbency) briefs, Prevail Breezers, Prevail PM, Tena Super, Tena Ultra, and Tena Classic Plus. Surprisingly, Assurance seem to be the best for me. They're comfortable, very absorbent, and thin enough to wear under a pair of loose-fitting jeans without really showing. Prevail came in second for me. They're absorbent and fit about the same as the Assurance but there's something about the way the fabric rubs against itself when I move that gives me the heebeejeebies. The Tena Super and Ultra were just too thick to feel safe wearing to work, and the Classic Plus didn't fit (I got a small cuz my waist is 31" and they're supposed to fit up to 36" - shoulda got a medium). I haven't had any problem with wetness seeping through any of these diapers, btw. I prefer the cut of Attends over all of these diapers, but I think I've found my daytime diaper - Assurance. I've worn them to work the past two days and changed twice both days. No problems!!! It was a bit nerve-wracking but the diaper is quiet enough that if someone walks in I can sit down on the toilet and wait til they leave. Luckily I haven't had that experience, yet
  7. Top shelf from left to right: Luvs Size 6, Sanipant, Girls XL GoodNites Middle shelf from left to right: ABU Super Dry Kids, Attends w/Waistband, Boys XL GoodNites
  8. My verdict is to leave the elastic leg cuffs on the Luvs. I was able to wet it twice fairly fast before the GoodNites leaked. I wouldn't flood these but for going out and wearing to work they'll be fine. This morning I also tried laying a size 5 Luvs inside the GoodNite rather than stuffing the GoodNite. I put two horizontal slits on the back of the Luvs about 2" above and below the fold in the center so it would allow moisture to flow through into the GoodNite. It didn't look as nice as stuffing the Luvs into the GoodNite but it actually held 3 wettings before developing a very small leak at the legs. The leak guards are better on the Luvs than the GoodNite so I think that's why it worked better for me.
  9. It does make the GoodNites smell great. And they look more baby-ish! I tweaked some things a little tonight. The OP used a size 5 Luvs but all I had when I tried it were 6's. They worked ok but were a bit hard to get into the GoodNite and caused some leaks because they didn't sit flat against the GoodNite. I just got back from the store with a box of size 5 Luvs and some girls XL GoodNites. The size 5 Luvs fit the GoodNite much better than the 6's. Another thing I did was tear away the elastics from the leg of the Luvs. Not sure if that is a good thing though yet - they were easier to get in but may cause leaks because there is no longer a leak guard in the outer diaper. Will let ya'll know tomorrow how it works out.
  10. Excellent idea! I just did this and it's great. I used a Luvs size 6 in an XL boys Goodnite.
  11. I second this recommendation. Make sure you get the maximum absorbency Assurance briefs. IMHO, they're much better than Depends. My only complaint is the tapes could be stickier -- just a small amount of powder on the diaper will cause them to pop, so ya have to be careful if you like powder.
  12. Same here - the print is very cute (I like it better than Bambino's). The absorbency isn't as good as Bambino, but definitely better than Attends. My order included a piece of paper that said "Think THICK - coming soon" so a thicker (more absorbent?) version should be available eventually. I'll be keeping an eye out for it
