I used to do this all of the time with Depends or a similar store brand but, once I switched to X-plus, Bambino, Dry, etc. I never feel the need to use more than 1 or 2! Thicker is better, that's for sure.
Welcome, we are glad to have you! It sounds like you have a wonderful balance in your life and that is something that many people would love to have. Anyway - it's nice to meet you and speak with soon.
I would suggest that you do the bottom two and one of the top tapes first while lying down. Then, you should try standing up to finish the fourth tape... this will make sure that you get an extremely snug fit. Although, the better you get, the more likely it will be that you get a snug fit everytime while lying down.
I agree with the last post. The "air" diapers are far quieter than the standard X-Plus diapers. I have noticed that the original X-pluses are more comfortable and maintain a more neutral smell than the "air" version. Enjoy either one though, they are great!
This is a great combo... you almost tease yourself with the tee-shirt revealing part of your diaper. If I had it my way I would just wear a diaper to bed though.
