So apparently size XL+ PeekABU is a thing: https://us.abuniverse.com/product/pab/ Has anyone actually seen it in person though? I will be trying to get my hands (and tape measure) on one. ABUs sizing is quite incoherent, which I will be further elaborating here, but just for overview: S S/M M L XL XL+ Absorbency [ml] [in] Simple Ultra 31-36 37-42 43-48 6250 PeekABU 31-36 37-42 43-46 43-46 6250 Space 22-29 31-36 37-44 45-52 5000 Little Pawz 22-29 25-31 31-36 37-44 45-52 5000 Simple 22-29 31-36 37-44 45-52 5000 BareBum 27-35 36-43 44-49 3500 PreSchool Cloth 21-29 30-36 37-42 43-49 3500 PreSchool Cloth 21-29 30-36 37-42 43-49 3500 Cushies 22-29 30-36 37-42 43-48 4500 Super Dry Kids 22-29 30-36 37-42 43-48 4500 Kiddo 21-29 30-36 37-42 43-49 4500 DinoRarwZ 26-34 35-41 42-48 5500 BunnyHops 2T 26-34 35-41 42-48 5500 BunnyHops 4T 26-34 35-41 42-48 5500 So there are two different (three if I count S/M as small) small sizes, four mediums, five larges, six extra larges and one extra large plus, and when it appears there's a group of models that are similar in medium or large, they differ in other sizes (if they even exist) or absorbencies or something else. Is there a system, or is it just an assortment of random arbitrary decisions? Then there are the actual numbers. I'll take Large (my usual size) as an example. Average ABU large diaper is in the vicinity of 40 inches, or 100 centimeters (with the exception of hook-and-loop ABU diapers which are, for some reason, even smaller). For medical diapers like Northshore Megamax Large or Abena L4, 100 cm is the low end, not its median. ABU's idea of how large should a Large diaper be seems very different from other brands, including ABU.

ABU DinoRawrz - L Rated ISO Capacity: 5500 ml Rated waist size: 89-104cm (35"-41") Backing: polyethylene foil Base color: white&blue Print: full Relative thickness: ~ Tapes: 4, hood-and-loop Landing zone: hook-and-loop, 61x15.5 cm, 5.5 cm offset from front edge Elastic waistband: front & rear Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: no Soak pad: no Scented: optional Note: quite small for a supposedly size Large diaper

Ok, Thank you ?

Yesterday. I came back late from work, but I had everything prepared beforehand, got padded by 0:30 AM and was wet by 1:00. I thought I could hold off until morning, but I could not, so at around 3:00 AM I let it go and then went to sleep in a very poopy diaper. In the morning, I needed to poo again, so in the diaper it went. And then again, a smaller poo this time. And again. And again, I lost count how many times I needed to go, five at least, suffice to say I filled my diaper properly, and then sat in it and watched TV. I felt super naughty, because my diaper was super messy and wet, and it most certainly was no accident. I came twice in the process.

Seni Super Quattro - L Rated ISO Capacity: 4600 ml Rated waist size: 100-150 cm (39"-59") Backing: non-woven fabric Base color: white Print: stock Relative thickness: - Tapes: 4, single combination Landing zone: no Elastic waistband: front & rear Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: yes Soak pad: no Scented: no Note: The backing of this diaper is of different kind of non-woven fabric than is found on other breathable diapers, it's denser, stronger and better quality in general. Possibly the best of its kind. Impermeable to liquid, but still breathable.

Is it possible to send consecutive posts without them merging? I'm trying to upload more of these, but if I post them they just merge, which is not ideal

Abena AbriForm Air Plus - XL4 Rated ISO Capacity: 4000 ml Rated waist size: 110-170 cm (43"-67") Backing: non-woven fabric Base color: white Print: stock Relative thickness: + Tapes: 4, stacked combination Landing zone: none Elastic waistband: none Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: yes Soak pad: no Scented: no Note: So, back again with more measurement. Only difference in size between L and XL is the width of the wings. Cloth-backed Abri-Form L4 has same dimensions as PE backed version.

I've just pooped my overnight diapers that were already swollen from several wettings, and oh my god, there's so much of it. I started to feel pressure and thought I could just hold it for little longer but it was becoming uncomfy so I let go, thinking it wouldnt be much, but it came out all at once in one big mushy wave, and filled my diaper completely. I'll wait an hour or two to see if there's a second wave coming, but boy my diaper feels so good already, it will be difficult fighting the urge to rub it until I come.

Yea dude, not cool. What are you going to do next? Park your vehicle on a disabled parking spot to find out if, I don't know, it doesn't crack the pavement on it? Guess what: unless you drive a six ton truck, it probably won't. There's no need for you to test it.

Something akin to baby tights, embiggened to adult size would be nice.

Tykables Camelot - L Rated ISO Capacity: 7000ml Rated waist size: 91-122 cm (36-48") Backing: polyethylene foil Base color: white Print: landing zone Relative thickness: ~ Tapes: 4, hook-and-loop Landing zone: hook-and-loop Elastic waistband: front only Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: no Soak pad: no Scented: no Note: front left wing isn't cut properly

Abena AbriForm - L4 Rated ISO Capacity: 3600 ml Rated waist size: 100-150 cm (39-59") Backing: polyethylene foil Base color: white Print: stock Relative thickness: + Tapes: 4, stacked adhesive Landing zone: none Elastic waistband: none Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: yes Soak pad: no Scented: no Note: slightly defective, as you can see front right wing is missing a triangular portion of same size as an excess that's there on rear right wing, probably from a badly sharpened or calibrated cutter on production line.

Crinklz Aquanaut - L Rated ISO Capacity: 5128 g (~5130 ml) Rated waist size: 110-150 cm (43-59") Backing: polyethylene foil Base color: white Print: full Relative thickness: - Tapes: 4, stacked adhesive Landing zone: none Elastic waistband: front & rear Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: no Soak pad: no Scented: no

Two hours ago, but this time I'll try to hold out because I know there should be more waves coming and I want all of them in the same diaper.

Not exactly on myself, when I do I try to aim for the drain, but in any case I need to, why not. After a hard day's work, the urine you pee is a lot more sanitary, or cleaner, if you will, than whatever else you wash off your body. It's not exactly a good conversation topic, and people who have too much pride to think about the economy of it will scoff at the suggestion, but it's economical nonetheless.

Incontinence or bedwetting management usually doesn't require wearing lacy PVC shirt and a paci. Anyway, yea, he's on his property, but being on your property is not the same as being invisible, and when you go out to your yard that's got a see through fence and not a wall around it, being dressed like that, people are going to notice, and it would be naive to think they're not going to find it strange. It IS strange after all... If he wants to do that on his property, it's his right, but it's not going to win him any neighbor of the year awards, kinda like having your yard full of old rusty junk or something. And as for not giving ABDL a good look, well, I don't find a reason to care too much about that.

Hi, I'm starting this thread to see if there's any interest or use to anyone to have a sort of database of diapers with objective measurements how big in which direction diapers actually are. Not how well they fit, feel, look, absorb, etc. things that are more or less subject to opinion. Only things that are objectively measurable or discernible. For a reference, I took everyone's favorite (that's a hyperbole), the revered NorthShore MegaMax in size L which I will post as a first practical example. Standardized content format, in my opinion, would be best that starts with a headline: brand, type and size, then a picture with dimensions, and then a bulleted list of properties and features. See below ______________________________________ Brand and Type - Size (Picture with dimensions in centimeters goes here. Centimeters because SI (metric) is the superior measurement system, get over it, it is the system of science and this is meant to be scientific. For measurement, diaper should be placed at a reasonably flat surface and fully spreaded, but not overstretched. Specs and features: Rated ISO Capacity: number in mililiters Rated waist circumference: range in centimeters (inches in parentheses, because converting this is not that much extra work and many manufacturers state it in inches anyway) Backing material: polyethylene foil OR non-wowen fabric (alternatively plastic or cloth-like, but note that not all non-wowen fabrics are made equal ... Seni and ABU are of different kind than others) Base color: base color of the backing Print: landing zone OR full OR none OR stock (stock means full legth pattern stripe typical for medical diapers, sometimes with drop symbols, size letters etc.) Relative thickness: + OR - OR ~ (with Mexamax as a reference, + for thicker , - for thinner than, ~ for comparable) * Tapes: number of tapes on both sides, simple adhesive OR stacked adhesive OR hook-and-loop OR single combination OR stacked combination Landing zone: adhesive refastenable OR hook-and-loop OR none; width, height, offset from top in centimeters Elastic waistband: front only OR rear only OR front & rear OR none Standing leak guards: yes OR no Wetness indicator: yes OR no Soak pad: yes OR no Scented: yes OR no (* relative thickness to Mexamag (the reference). Measurement should the thickness of a diaper at the highest point (typically in the middle) that has been taken out of a package but has NOT been unfolded yet, and let sat for > 12 hours on a flat surface with no weight on top of with, and also measured without any pressure acting upon it. Why? Well, measuring thickness whilst inside a package is not informative, because diapers are heavily compressed to fit in. It should be not unfolded, because unfolding and refolding will completely skew results. And why relative and not actual number? Because in this case, number doesn't mean that much. Measurement in this dimension introduces a lot of variables that are difficult to control, so a Megamax L that has been taken out of a pack and let sit for some time is about 4.5 cm thick. A diaper that is within +/- 5 mm of that should be ~, otherwise + for thicker or - for thinner. Now, the point of this all might be, that if someone is trying out some type of diaper, but feels that it could do with few centimeters (inches) more or fewer in certain directions, could look into this, and find comparison. See, manufacturer numbers for waist circumference, let alone the S, M, L, XL, L/XL and other designation are not always comparable, all manufacturers have their own ideas of how actually large should a "Large" be, and sometimes, you even find variances between products of the same company. ABU is guilty of this, where their size Large Space is bigger than most other size Large diapers, Betterdry XL is shorter in length than size large Crinklz (same company), and lots of other shenanigans. So, enough yapping, here's an actual example: NorthShore Megamax White - L Rated ISO Capacity: 6500 ml Rated waist size: 107-137 cm (42-54") Backing: polyethylene foil Base color: white Print: none Relative thickness: = Tapes: 4, simple adhesive Landing zone: adhesive refastenable Elastic waistband: front & rear Standing leak guards: yes Wetness indicator: no Soak pad: no Scented: no Some commentary about the dimensions, because there are curves between the crotch and wings, the distance between front and rear wing (32 cm) is taken between the apexes of these curves. Otherwise, it's (I hope), quite clear. Measurements should include overall length (99 cm), wing width (77 and 77 cm, can differ depending on type), wing height at edge (17 cm front, 24 cm rear), crotch width at middle (35 cm), padding height (79 cm), padding width at front, mid and rear (30 cm, 21 cm, 36 cm), padding hourglass height (18 front, 24 rear), tape width (4 cm). Elastic waist band widths (front 24 cm, rear 25 cm) are optional. They introduce sort of a variable as they stretch (that's what they're for after all), and some diapers don't have them usually on front, or at all. I would very much appreciate your feedback, ask questions, have suggestions, and if there's enough interest, I'll get to work measuring and posting shortly (well, in about a week and a half - I'll be out of town for some time), and I would like to ask admins if it would be possible to perhaps eventualy pin this thread, if it gains traction. Thanks

Diapers are better than toilets, because when I was wiping a floor around one particular toilet, there was an expensive ceramic toilet brush holder next to it, which I accidentaly knocked over, and of course, it cracked into pieces. Never experienced anything like that with diapers. Oh, and one more reason. We all know wet wipes work better than toilet paper, but you're not supposed to put used wipes into the toilet, because it would clog the sewers. You can however put them in the diaper that you're about to dispose of (unless it's a cloth).

I have five, bought in this order: 1. Airoliver, 2XL size, cotton, white with elephants pattern, envelope neck, short sleeves, four snaps at crotch. Solid choice for my first ever, but now doesn't get much use anymore. 2. Airoliver, XL size, cotton, white with popsicles pattern, envelope neck, short sleeves, four snaps at crotch. Still wear it (infrequently); not my best purchase, being size smaller than previous makes it nice and snug but it has developed tears around the snaps from stretching too much. 3. Airoliver, 2XL size, cotton, plain white with round neck, short sleeves, four snaps at crotch. Nothing special. Gets occasional use. 4. Locally made for a special needs store, 188 size (probably 3XL compared to airoliver), dark blue, bamboo fabric which is supposed to be all the rage but I still prefer cotton, round neck, long sleeves. It came with 3 snaps at crotch, but I crimped four more per side for extra wide diaper embrace. My second favorite, best for cold days. Very stretchy, so not a lot of snugness. 5. Same source as above, 182 size, cotton, wonderfully elastic and snug at the same time, blue and white stripes, short sleeves, round neck (my only complaint, envelope would be better but they don't make those), came with three snaps, added extra 3 per side. My absolute favorite. Basically, whenever I'm in a diaper for the night, I will wear a onesie. Folks, even if you aren't into the whole AB side of things, as I thought I wasn't, get yourself a onesie. Or three. It doesn't need to be babyish after all. But it just makes the diaper wearing experience so much better. I used to think I didn't need any, now I wonder how could I have gone so long without them. I will definitely get some more. The number of onesies you need is N+1, where N is the number of onesies you currently own.

I don't have a faith is the most accurate answer I can give, so that makes me an atheist. (Note, in my definition atheism is absence of belief in god, NOT belief in absence of god - that I call anti-theism). I'll dare to be controversial when I don't add the obligatory addendum that "I respect everyone's belief", because if I am to be honest, I do not automatically respect a belief simply because someone holds it. I respect everyone's right to have a belief (which must entail the right to express it, as long as it's expressed in a manner that doesn't violate other's freedom of expression), but not necessarily the belief itself. Why? Because beliefs are not equal. You can, for example, believe that the Earth is flat. I will respect your right to hold that belief and share it, and as long as your method of expressing it isn't violent or abusive, the only way I will respond is with civil discourse (well, ideally that's what I should do, but since nobody is perfect, there's a good chance I will also respond with sarcasm, condescending tone or other unpleasant ways, and I will accept criticism for it afterwards.) But, I do not respect the belief per se (that Earth is flat), because Earth quite demonstrably is not flat, and therefore a belief that the Earth is flat is ignorant of facts, and that means it is not equal to the belief that Earth is round, because the former is based on nonsense, and latter is based on facts. Belief on its own does not warrant my respect. Effort made towards discovery is what warrants my respect. But, there's a catch. If you plunge yourself into the discovery of truth with a pre-existing belief, it may come into conflict with your findings, and then you might tend to lead the evidence, instead of following the evidence. That puts you at a disadvantage than if you started your discovery of truth with a clean slate. So, I have respect for those who made an effort towards discovery. I have even more respect for those, who had to make even more effort towards discovery, when their findings were in conflict with their pre-existing belief, and they were able to overcome their bias and change their mind in light of newly discovered evidence. Whom I don't have much respect for, are those who obstinately hold onto their beliefs, make zero effort towards new discovery, and when their belief is challenged with presentation of evidence to the contrary, they will dismiss it without any scrutiny, and double down on their belief. Stubbornness is not a virtue in my book.

I was 25 when I ordered my first pack of actual diapers online for the first time, and it would be an understatement to say that my heart was beating hard from excitement and also anxiety throughout the whole process: when I clicked the confirm order button, when I picked up the package at postal office, when I smuggled them home, and when I opened the pack and first tried one on. My excitement was only somewhat lessened by finding out the Abena Abri-Form M4 air plus was one size too small for me, which I went to remedy right away by placing another order, this time for the one size larger L4.

Typically when I decide to have diaper night, by the time actually I go to sleep, I will have already peed in it. Well, when I say it, more like them, as it never is a single unboosted diaper. It's always multiple and with cloth diapers on top as extra protection against leaks, and for dat thiccness. Getting it all on is quite the process, so I don't take it off until I feel like changing, for any reason short of it leaking, of an emergency like the house being on fire. One such case was once, when I was rudely interrupted from my diapered night, when at 2:30 AM someone ringed my intercom from the street, and subsequently, for all I could hear, everyone else's in the building, but not responding when I picked up. And then, half an hour later, somehow getting into the building (I guess someone must have buzzed them in), the guy (saw him through my peep hole) ringed my doorbell, banged on my door, and, without uttering a single word about what's his problem, sighed and went on to do the same for every other flat on my floor and the ones below and above, seemingly with same result, which, from what I could hear, frustrated him? Because of course it's totally normal, and not at all suspect, going door to door, banging and ringing at every, at 3 AM, in a building you seemingly have no business being in, and sighing when no one opens....

Certainly not babied past baby age, and I think I can say with confidence my parents didn't spoil me. Objectively, my grandma doted on me, and seemed to have favoured me slightly over my sister, which occasionally created some tension between me and her.

3 days ago, as usual I overestimated the capability of my diaper that was soaked and poopy, and leaked though the front as i was lying on my tummy. Good thing I had forethought to put an absorbent bed mat under me, getting pee out of a mattress is not fun. On that note, does anyone know what ever happened to Pampers bed mats? It seems as if the world has run out of them, and that's only possible if P&G stopped producing them. Which would be a shame as they met my key requirements for absorbent bed mats: - be the last line of defense against leaks - look cute
