I can tell you as a lifelong diaper wearer...there are definitely some positives about wearing 24/7 but there are certainly some negatives. Particularly, messes. No matter how you spin it - whether you are in public or private. If its not the smell, its the cleanup. It can be some work no doubt. If you have someone to change you its great but finding somewhere to change can also be a challenge. But, you adjust like with anything and it becomes truly a nice feeling once you get really comfortable.
