Sounds like you're describing lots of AB themed diaper brands that are unavailable. What about premium medical brand diapers? Are those off the "changing table" too??

I recommend wearing diapers during the daytime to help increase your Bedwetting, It takes a long time but if you constantly wet your diaper during the daytime (whenever you feel the urge) your bladder will shrink eventually to a point where nighttime accidents become inevitable. Reusable Underpads are also critical because night time diaper leaks are a common part of the process, and sleeping on an underpad means not having to ruin your mattress or constantly doing your bedding laundry.

I've been somehow on a morning messing schedule for the past few years. I mess my diaper every morning while I drink my coffee, without any pushing. I don't change right away, and usually have a second or third BM within a half hour or so. And then before showering, I'll give a push attempt to see if there's anything else in there before taking my diaper off, (But i'm usually empty at that point). Other than the morning, I usually don't have to poop during the rest of the daytime. However, there are some rare exceptions where I will have a need for a daytime BM, but a very small percentage of the time. I would suggest you try to get onto a schedule like this, so you can take care of your BM's in the morning before you shower. As far as accomplishing this, It could have something to do with that I drink lots of water before bed, for better sleep and extra hydration. I hardly drink soda, and also drink plenty of water during the day.

Yup, I second the Abena L3 Pullup recommendation. They swell up nicely but will leak on you, and onto wherever you're sleeping... Also, Pullups are much more expensive than actual Diapers that won't leak as often, (while also holding a lot more urine.) Pullups are marketed towards people who either don't want to admit they need a diaper, and also offer the option to make it to the toilet. Kind of like people buying one pack of cigarettes at a time VS people who buy a couple cartons. I understand the stealth factor of a Pullup though, If you were sleeping over with friends it would be easy to slip on a Pullup after getting into bed. https://www.xpmedical.com/xp-abe-ab-u-flex3-xp

I would drink fluids normally, as you crave them. If you're thirsty, drink some water. If you're groggy around noon or afternoon, have some coffee. Before bedtime though, it's good to drink extra water to compensate for the fact that you'll be sleeping for the next several hours. I get great sleep when I'm extra hydrated, and that leads to a soaking wet diaper in the mornings, (Which for me is not a problem). Regular vanilla people starve themselves of water and fluids before bedtime, which leads to them waking up with dry mouth in the middle of the night, or headaches in the morning from dehydration. Plus regular people have to wake up in the middle of the night to use the potty, and then might have trouble falling back to sleep, or not be able to fall back asleep at all... That leads to not getting a proper nights rest, and could affect work performance, driving reaction time, and other heath problems. I'm happy to be a bedwetter and always wake up fully rested. I don't dabble too much with ABDL Diapers, and by purchasing only Medical Branded Diapers, I can afford to wear 24/7.

You basically want to empty your bladder as often as possible, by shrinking the size of your bladder, makes it easier to release more often. A Smaller bladder will also cause your diaper to leak significantly less often, making things easier on you. A few minutes after I get out of the shower, (just before I put on a fresh diaper), I always empty my bladder, (usually into my most recently used diaper.) Having a cup of coffee after a diaper change will pretty much guarantee you'll have a good urge for a wetting within 30 minutes to an hour. It's also good to drink plenty of water during the day, and especially before bedtime to properly unsure your diaper is doomed. For a little back story on me, I went 24/7 before and also during the pandemic because I didn't work from home and my job required me to be constantly on the move. I'm at the point now where I never leave the house without a diaper, it just wouldn't be comfortable without one. I wet often enough that If i'm not wearing I have to constantly focus on holding it, so diapers are just a better option now. I can manage without one, but I've had small accidents on long car rides, discovering a small wet spot on my friend's car seat. I legit didn't even know I wet, which was kind of scary but also exciting providing justification for always being padded. It's good to have an arsenal of different types of diapers for different life situations. Some diapers are for bedtime, where it's okay to be thicker and super comfortable, like (BetterDry and Trest.) Some diapers are good for Daytime wearing around the house, or running errands on your days off from work. (Threaded Armor). And some diapers for wearing to Work, when you need something that won't bulge or break apart, (Total Dry Overnight).

I have a small quantity of retro Tena Slip Maxi's, back before they were discontinued and updated/downgraded. They're over 10 years old now, but I can't seem to use them, because then they'll be gone forever! 😭

I no longer recommend buying samples. When test driving a new diaper, It's much better to purchase a Bag. Here's why: Bags are vacuum sealed, which ensures the diapers arrive in perfect condition. Samples arrive wrinkled and abused, so you don't get to experience the diaper in it's natural form. Also, Samples usually come in sets of 2 or 3. Personally, I don't feel like that's enough time to really get to know a diaper. For example, I've purchased a Bag of diapers before, and my first impressions of the diaper weren't that great. ...But at that point I'd already opened the bag, So I continued using the diapers and actually began to start enjoying and trusting them. This has happened with a couple different brands actually, because the more you use a diaper the more you learn about it. Experimenting with different taping strategies, different booster placements, different applications (whether it be used at daytime or at night), etc. TLDR, Buy A Bag instead of a sample pack for a true "test drive" of a new diaper. If you sometimes run in-between Mediums and Large, I would recommend buying One bag in each of those sizes.

I would say they're similar to a: Tena Slip Maxi, but the Total Dry Overnight's are physically tougher Wellness Superio, but the Total Dry Overnight's are more absorbant and more comfortable BetterDryDay, but the Total Dry Overnight's don't break apart and clump during serious physical activity Total Dry Overnight's are slim when you remove them from the packaging, but they swell up nicely as you fill them, but not like a balloon so they're ideal for public. I wear a Large: -BetterDry -MegaMax and pretty much every other Diaper I order, if that helps. And I wear a Large Total Dry Overnight as well. You might want to order a Bag of each size before you buy cases. One of the best features of Total Dry is the markers on the landing zones. You can get a perfect fit, every time. Obviously some other brands have markers on their diapers too, but not all of them, so it's worth mentioning that Total Dry does.

I don't think they are the same as the Bellisimo 5,000 ML absorbancy, which makes the Total Dry Overnights more discrete. To compensate for that, I use a Booster. The Total Dry X Plus are very nice too, but they're a little too poofy for daytime use because I don't want everyone to know I'm wearing a Diaper. I've also tried the Total Dry Plus before, and I too have experienced the same plastic ripping in the back as you mentioned. However I have never had that issue with the Total Dry Overnights, and I've put them to the test way more often than the average user. I've literally hiked for miles with them totally soaked, and the tapes hold up perfectly, the plastic doesn't rip, and the material doesn't clump. TD Overnights are literally the perfect daytime diaper, and i'm super excited they're back on the market. Yes, The BetterDry's in Size Large are OUT OF STOCK, and have been since mid December 2023. A representative I spoke with said they would be back in stock January 2024, (and now it's almost March.) Luckily, I stocked up big on BetterDry during the Black Friday Sales, because I love using BetterDry's as my Go To Night time Diaper. I have however spent a great deal of time searching for the perfect Daytime diaper. I've tried many different brands and sizes, and the Total Dry Overnight is the best Daytime Diaper I've ever used.

MY favorite Diapers EVER are BACK from DISCONTINUEDLAND!!!! The Total Dry Overnights are Back and IN STOCK!!!!! They are my favorite Daytime Diaper AND they can also be used for Overnight!! They're discreet but they also hold a decent amount of wettings and wick well! The material on the inside is super smooth against your skin and the leak guards are perfectly high enough for BM's and Boosters. They're also built tough, and the tapes hold tight for extended periods, making them my favorite daytime diaper ever! You could even wear them during daytime without Plastic Pants or a Onesie...if you wanted to, they're just that good. I was very upset about their discontinuation, but now that they're back I'm excited to see what improvements they've made. I wanted to let everyone know so that maybe you'll give them a try while you're waiting for the BetterDry shortage to be over.

I highly recommend NOT pooping your diapers at work, or around friends and family. However, I've come pretty close to having a poopy accident in my diaper, (while at work), but luckily I made it to the potty in the nick of time. After that near miss scenario, I've accepted the reality of how close I was to filling my diaper, and I've taken proper precautions. I now keep a small backpack with a couple diapers, wipes, gloves, disposal bags, and diaper rash cream...In my Car, Just in case. Having a diaper change kit with you provides a sense of added comfort and peace of mind. Even if you only plan on changing once, you never know, sometimes the tapes rip off the wings, or plans change and you decide to spend the night somewhere, so it's always better to have extra diapers with you, always bring more than you think you will need. Also, kind of a personal preference thing, but I don't like using ABDL themed diapers. For starters, ABDL diapers are significantly more expensive, (considering if you're wearing 24/7). And it would also be really embarrassing to be caught with an ABDL diaper, compared to being caught with a normal diaper. Not to mention there are some really good medical brands out there already, so in my humble opinion there's no need to waste extra money for ABDL prints.

If you're having trouble peeing while laying down, try using the "Frog Legs" position. 🐸 It also helps if you fully "Trust your diaper", And to never be afraid of diaper leaks, just like a toddler. A quality reusable underpad helps overcome this fear, such as the North Shore Champion underpad. It takes lots of practice to constantly keep your bladder relaxed, and eventually it's very easy to wet after the slightest urge. Be careful what you wish for though, some people regret becoming a bedwetter. Being a real bedwetter does make sleep overs with friends and family more stressful, but it's easy to manage with proper planning and protection. As for the daytime, drink plenty of water, try taking a good sip each time you wet. With practice it will get easier, and your bladder will shrink slightly, which will eventually reduce leaks because you won't be flooding your diaper as much.

You know, I really don't like that word, Fetish. After I was potty trained as a Kid, I missed my Diapers. I was jealous of other kids who were still wearing them. I did not Develop a "Fetish". I was Born this way, Baby.

I feel like the more a Person dabbles with wearing 24/7, You reach a cross road where it's no longer a choice to wear a diaper instead of regular underwear. It gets to a point where all you want to wear is Diapers, because it becomes all you know. Wearing diapers becomes such a routine wearing regular underwear becomes strange and foreign.

That's when bedwetting has truly become the new normal. When you get used to a soaking wet diaper inbetween your legs every morning. BetterDry are my favorite for this, because they're just so smooth and comfortable.

I have to change my diaper at least an hour or two before bed, otherwise I'll be too tired for a diaper change and subsequently skip it. So I'm usually going to bed already slightly wet. I also drink some water during the time leading up to before I get into bed, otherwise I'll wake up thirsty and grab my water bottle off the night stand. I usually sleep wet within the first REM cycle, and then wake up and wet a couple times throughout the night and then easily drift back to sleep.

Two things that can ELIMINATE your fear of leaking in bed. 1) PROTEC Briefs. They're basically a pair of shorts you wear over your diaper. They're extremely comfortable, they catch all your diaper leaks no matter what position you sleep in. https://www.protecbriefs.com/products/adult-protecbriefs 2) Re-usable Underpads. I use a NorthShore Champion reusable underpad. It's comfortable to sleep on and probably holds a gallon of pee, lol. I recommend buying two so that you aren't immediately forced to do laundry every time your diaper leaks. https://www.northshorecare.com/adult-diapers/underpads-bed-pads/northshore-champion-xd-washable-underpads You can also combine the two. Wear your diaper, with a ProTec Brief and sleep on a reusable underpad. Sometimes i'm really tired and literally skip my nighttime diaper change because I know even if I leak, i'm covered. BONUS) You can also buy comfortable waterproof mattress protectors. I prefer the soft flexible ones, but they also have the "plasticky" kind.

"LIVE FREE OR DIE" Except people being able to enjoy the freedom of diapers, they don't like that...

My least favorite part about being 24/7 is the logistics involved for changing a diaper in public. I'm an expert at diapering while standing, but it's more difficult with pants down at your ankles restricting your movement. Combine that with how gross public bathrooms are in the first place. The horrible smells, the constant toilets flushing, people coughing, etc. No wonder I prefer diapers!

Yup, but those tapes are the most exciting! lol

There's a lot of things that could be going wrong here... The batch of diapers you got could have defective tapes first of all. OR you're touching the tape landing area with your fingers before taping. You might also be taping too tightly, instead of taping a snug fit also supported by a onesie and plastic pants. Are you rubbing the tapes excessively after placement? Are you taping, then removing the tapes, and then re-taping?? Because this is HORRIBLE for the tape's adhesives.

Shortly before you go to bed, empty your bladder and put on your nighttime diaper. Drink 64 ounces of water, and then go to bed. While you're lying down, focus on keeping your bladder relaxed as you fall asleep. If you feel the urge to wet, go ahead.

We've all thrown a couple, or even a few Adult Diapers into a Backpack before an Adventure. But as we move around, the Diapers get shifted and squished. I was thinking some Packing Cubes would keep them in better shape, but does anyone know which brand and size would fit their Diapers well???
