@Babyshroomy As @DiaperboyEddie12 says, I do use Northshore Megamax Diapers:  They are BETTER than almost ANYTHING that you can buy today.  In order for me to be able to have Vermont Medicaid pay for my diapers, I had to basically start at the BOTTOM of the chain and work up.  I responded to another user about my Prior Authorizations, and how that works, and I post that thread HERE. That way, don't have to post it twice. Welcome to Daily Diapers    Brian

I'm in Eden prairie 

I hope there will be more of this story

Happy Mother's Day, everyone. I got up and made an espresso for my wife, while enjoying lounging around in a soggy Critter Caboose under some light shorts. When I went to bed, it was mostly dry, so I must have wet it overnight, but I have no recollection of doing so.  I noted an interesting phenomenon this morning, not for the first time, but I don't think I've written about it before, and it made me curious as to how the bladder works, and how I am perhaps subverting that via putting myself back into diapers full-time. As most of us diapernauts do, I tend to dribble here and there rather than holding it until a heavier voiding incident is required, because diapers just last longer that way - flooding leads to overwhelming the absorbance of the stuffing locally, which leads to rivers, which can sometimes lead to leaks, even when there is still a lot of capacity left. I've had a diaper leak at a leg gather on the first wetting, and I've had diapers not emit a droplet after 14 hours of use. Obviously, the latter is the preferred mode of operation.  This morning, I woke up in my somewhat soggy diaper, went and made coffee, drank some, read the paper, and then felt the stirrings of a #2 requirement. I did briefly consider that I needn't worry too much about it, because my wife and kids were packing up to go visit her mom, but then I pictured myself idly reading the paper while sitting on a load, and knew that I'd be compelled to change myself within a half hour, and that doing so would probably take a half hour, and involve a shower, and, consigning a somewhat pricey super diaper to an early grave. So I carefully removed the Caboose from my caboose, and did the needful.  Now, when I engage in nature's act #2, inevitably, some of nature's act #1 occurs - it's just how I'm wired, and I assume most people experience the same thing. I can wee with abandon and not invite any synchronicity from the #2 department, unless I'm at Defcon 5 back there,  but any attempt at #2 brings #1 along with it. So, I tinkled as well. I then got up and put my somewhat pendulous diaper back on, and proceeded to brush my teeth, during which, I suddenly felt a need to pee, and did so... but I was curious as to why that was the case. Yes, brushing my teeth can be a precipitating event for me - I often pee a little bit when I do that, just as I sometimes do when I have the dog out and he pees, or, strangely, when I'm putting my shoes on or taking them off - that may be echoes of the "latchkey" phenomenon people talk about. And I often pee a little bit when I get home, even if I'm not desperate to, and if I am at all desperate, unlocking my front door makes me about as close to incontinent as I'm ever likely to experience, unless I have a stroke or go get incontinence surgery in Mexico.  But in this case, I had just gone pee, so I was, and am, curious as to where that need sprang from.
