Smash-N-Dash

I collect vintage and out-of-production baby diapers and training pants. I’m having a tough time finding the Pampers Easy Ups made before they switched to the current 360° waistband. eBay and Amazon are hit and miss. If anyone has any boys or girls Easy Ups either size 6 or 4T-5T and are willing to sell them, I’m looking to buy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For one, they have a nice smell to them. It’s not overpowering, but very babyish. The plastic is very noisy and crinkly, so get ready to crinkle and pop with every move you make. They absorb well, and do a decent job wicking, plus have footprint wetness indicators printed on them. Depending on where you got them from, you might have some from the bad tape batch they had a while ago. I have a pack I got from Amazon that had the same issues. Just be careful pulling on the tapes themselves when you go to put it on. You’d be better off pulling the wing as tight as you can and trying to get the tape right on the first try.

It could also be the way you tape the diaper on. Depending on which way the bottom tapes are angled, the seal around your legs will be looser or tighter. Generally, angling the bottom tapes up towards the middle of the landing zone helps seal up around the legs better. The other thing that may help is folding the diaper lengthways if you don’t already. It helps create a channel to allow liquid to travel and wick farther back, spreading out more. I’ve had this happen to me every now and then, and part of the reason it simply happens is the male anatomy. Because of how we’re setup, the fronts of diapers we wear will always get soaked before the back starts to get wet. The liquid tends to pool in the middle, between your legs, and that’s where the vast majority end up leaking. It doesn’t sound to me like you have the wrong size diapers, just that you need to make a few adjustments.

Nope, can’t say I ever was.

Yeah, something along those lines. It’d be a boutique-type of thing. A boutique diaper pretty much.

Idk, the store I guess? I don’t have any interesting diaper stories like that.

I agree with the sentiment that you should wait. Having your family find out is a can of worms you do not want to open.

Either that, or a customer could submit their own design to be used, let alone spec the whole diaper out as they’d like.

I saw these new diapers on Amazon the other day, and thought they were kind of interesting. I actually ended up ordering a few packs. The description says they’re similar to Rearz Safari. What do you guys think? https://www.amazon.com/Forsite-Health-Under-Briefs-Medium/dp/B07L8MDFBW/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1549338217&sr=8-1&keywords=forsite&th=1&psc=1#immersive-view_1549758903062

I just find that for me, the cleanup takes the enjoyment out of it. Wetting a diaper involves hardly any cleanup. It makes it a lot more enjoyable. Messing on the other hand, again in my opinion, is a different story.

Just something to keep in mind, but there is a section of the site for meeting other folks.

Before I begin, let me preface this by saying I generally don’t like to mess my diaper. Frankly, the cleanup is too much of a hassle to be worth the positives, in my opinion. Today, I had a little extra free time, and I felt like doing something a little different. I didn’t actually have to mess at any point, so I figured I’d do the banana-up-the-tailpipe trick to simulate a mess. Frozen peeled banana, coated in lube, up the tailpipe, the usual thing. Well, it didn’t make me want to mess either, and I didn’t want to sit there all night with a mushy banana sitting up my butt. That’s when I decided to try the enema. I’ve had a few laying around for a special occasion or just for shits and giggles (pun intended), so I grab one and use as intended. Not even a minute after I empty its contents into my backside do I feel the need to go. The proverbial floodgates opened, and I was off to the races, helplessly messing my diaper like a baby. It was an unbelievable feeling, very euphoric and amazing, to the point where I was aroused. Once at the point where just about all the contents of my bowel were out, I had some fun, squished the diaper around, rubbed one out, and enjoyed it for a few minutes. After, I got cleaned up, put a fresh diaper on, and went on my way. I will say that even though it was an enjoyable experience, the mess afterwards was way too much for me. I think from this point on, enemas will be rare, and I mean very rare for me. Fun, no doubt, but cleanup is not fun.

Huh, I never considered stretching. I’ll have to give it a shot.

I’ve actually been dieting since October. I work a desk job, and I found out I put on some weight since starting my job. Since I started my diet, I’m down 15 pounds.

I personally feel as if wearing 24/7 would ruin the whole experience and turn me off of diapers. I find that the right balance of wearing verses not wearing satisfies my cravings enough without it losing appeal.

So, Huggies Convertibles for adults? Anyway, I actually have two separate ideas for a dream diaper. The first would be your traditional diaper. I’d want it to have: Elastic wings/side panels, much like Pampers and Huggies do today. I know Bambino offers this already, but I’d want panels with more stretch and elasticity to them. They’d help the diaper stay in place and seal up gaps and leaks better, especially when active and moving. The option of both plastic and cloth-like covers. A Velcro/hook and loop tabs and landing zone system. It’d be more reminiscent of today’s baby diapers, and in my opinion, they hold better than adhesive tapes. I like Firefly’s pre-fastened tape idea, a la Huggies Convertibles. Maybe have one standard diaper model, and a second like the Convertibles. A moisture barrier/quick absorbing membrane. I’m not sure if this is possible, mainly because of the issues Pampers had with their Dry Max system giving babies bad rashes and reactions, but if there was a way to include a built-in moisture barrier, that’d be fantastic. I like a good, squishy diaper, but there are times I hate that wet clammy feeling it leaves on skin. Double, maybe even triple leakguards thst extend from waistband to waistband. Extra stretchy and elastic waistbands. A wide variety of designs, customizable by the customer. Licensed stuff like the usual Sesame Street and Disney stuff, but also other stuff like MLP, Paw Patrol, etc... Discreet and plain options too. Two levels of absorbency, customized for gender, as well as a unisex third option. One level for daytime use, or a “true” training pant, the other for overnight or a diaper pant level. Basically, daytime use is equivalent to a daytime adult diaper (3,500+ mL), and the overnight is equivalent to a overnight adult diaper (5,000+ mL). Optional, customizable wetness indicator (design/pattern, location, size, full length or single location, etc...). My second idea is for more of a training pant or pull-up style diaper. That would have: Velcro/easy open sides, just like Pull Ups. Two levels of absorbency, customized for gender, as well as a unisex third option. One level for daytime use, or a “true” training pant, the other for overnight or a diaper pant level. Basically, daytime use is equivalent to a daytime adult diaper (3,500+ mL), and the overnight is equivalent to a overnight adult diaper (5,000+ mL). Optional, customizable wetness indicator (design/pattern, location, size, full length or single location, etc...). Optional sensory indicator. Think Cool Alert Pull Ups or Wetness Liner/Feel N Learn Pull Ups and Easy Ups. Either a chemical reaction or physical suspended liner to let you feel the moisture briefly. A wide variety of designs, customizable by the customer. Licensed stuff like the usual Sesame Street and Disney stuff, but also other stuff like MLP, Paw Patrol, etc... Discreet and plain options too, as well as lace/frilly trim for girls and the faux fly and seam trim for boys. Double, maybe even triple leakguards thst extend from waistband to waistband. Extra stretchy and elastic waistbands. I’m sure I’m missing something, but I think for the most part that’s it.

I appreciate all the tips, guys. I ended up getting a smaller (8 gallon or so) stainless steel trash can with a foot pedal-activated lid. So far it works great, though I wish I would’ve bought one a little bigger. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20.

Same here. For the most part, they just lounge around my room until I feel inclined enough to do something with them. I do sleep with at least one at night though.

Same here. Something little, but it definitely helps in my opinion.

Unfortunately, leaks just happen sometimes, even if you’re prepared and properly padded up. Underwear style stuff has never personally worked well for me. You might want to try looking for more of a daytime diaper, something a little heavier on absorbency but still discreet if it keeps happening.

You lucky duck! I’m jealous!

I appreciate the tips guys. I’m thinking a simple garbage can will work out the best, and way more affordable too. I’m gonna have to pick one up next time I’m at Walmart.

I don’t wear diapers 24/7, but I wear often enough to think about investing in a diaper pail. Basically, I wear when I have free time for the most part, and I go through a decent amount of diapers a week. Two questions I have are should I invest in a diaper pail, and which ones would you guys recommend? Any pointers would be helpful too.

I don’t personally travel very often, but when I do, I try to be as discreet as possible if/when I wear and use diapers, including disposal. I’ll even either brings trash bags or go out and buy them while on vacation and try my best to either find the dumpster or a larger, public trash can to dispose of used diapers in. I’ve worked in the service industry before (I was a mechanic and car rental agent for a little while), so I can sympathize with hotel workers and some of the stuff they have to go through. That’s why I always try and make it as easy as possible for them to do their job.
