I diaper myself daily in front of my wife. I have interstitial cystitis and severe OAB and am in diapers 24/7 because of the small leaks I have every time I make it to the bathroom. I always make the toilet but have leaks until the next time I make the toilet. she does occasionally diaper me to help me get ready for the day. I really like it when she diapers me, it shows that

Tena Classic, size Large. One of 3 brands of diapers I like. I have bladder issues including some leakage, and am a Foley catheter user. I'm a DL or maybe former DL?? I now wear out of medical necessity.

I use the valves to put on the end of the catheter to go swimming etc. but I don't use the

He told me that I could not work during the trial period. I have a job that is very physical, and often unpredictable. I emailed him to ask some further questions about it as I was instructed to do so and he never bothered to email me back. I took that as a sign that it wasn't a fit for me with a doctor that was going to be unresponsive.

One of my 13 doctors wanted me to get the INTERSTIM. He told me I wouldn't be able to work during the trial period, and it appears as though I'd have to be out of work for 3-6 weeks after the surgery for the permanent one. I can't take 8 weeks off from work as nobody's paying me to sit at home.......OAB Meds did nothing but make me impotent and constipated with cotton mouth.......I'll stick to diapers and the Foley catheters........

Once upon a time I was a DL. I never was into wetting my diapers and never messed myself. I used to just enjoy wearing. I HATE being wet.

How are you straining to pee with 3 sphincterotomies??? Wow?? I usually don't go more than 12 days with a foley. That's the longest I've had one in. (Most of a 2 week vacation) I'd rather not have to live with a foley but sure do like the freedom its provided me. I went 7-8 days without one a little while back. I enjoyed not toting the bag around and changing bags morning and night but, being in the bathroom 25 times a day and getting up multiple times at night gets old. After a few nights of interrupted sleep I begin to get very anxious and quick tempered with the slightest things and I begin to take it out on the wife and kids. And then she doesn't give me a choice about the foley. She'll tell me she's going to do it and I usually don't argue with her because I know I need to sleep through the night. So she caths me.......I don't pee in my diapers on purpose if I can make the toilet. My incontinence usually comes into play after I've gone to the bathroom and then I'll leak for 15-20 minutes until I have to go to the bathroom again, and then leak for another 15-20 minutes till I go again.......it's always small amounts and never floods but, it's enough I have to wear some protection. I prefer diapers, but wear pullups/pads with boxer briefs over them at work as I can conceal them easier. At home and any other time but when I'm in a uniform at work, I don't wear anything over my diapers. I just like to give the appearance of not being broken when I'm at work.

I usually only have them in for a few days at a time.......while I'm off work for 4-5 days......when I go to work for 2-3 days at a time I go without the foley and suffer without it. When I'm home for a stretch of days my wife will put the foley in. At first the catheter caused me a lot of discomfort, but nowadays I don't even notice that it's in......I used to get some bleeding when I would do strenuous tasks, but I don't even notice that happening anymore. It is better to have a foley than spend all my time in the bathroom and being up all night peeing.

I had an angiogram in November of 2014 to look at my spinal cord as they thought that there might be an abnormal blood vessel in my spine causing my urinary issues. It was a three hour surgery and they gave me a general anesthesia for that as they do not want people moving around while they're poking around your spinal cord. Since it's a three hour surgery I had to be catheterized. I actually went to the hospital with A catheter in already, I am a catheter user regularly and my wife puts them in for me at home since she is a nurse. So they let me just come in with the Foley already in, before I went into the operating room they let my wife change the bag from the leg bag to the overnight/bedside bag and she took my diaper off as well. When I woke up I was naked except for the gown. I don't like to be without a diaper even when I have a catheter because it feels like my equipment is bouncing around all over the place. So I asked the nurse if she wouldn't mind getting me a diaper and she brought me a blue hospital diaper. She asked me if I needed help putting it on but my wife was right there so I told her "no thank you" and my wife diapered me instead. The nurse was pretty, it would have been cool to say she put it on me, but she didn't. I think my wife would have been mad at me had the nurse put the diaper on for me. When the nurse got me up to walk around I carried my Foley bag and my wife did the Johnny up in the back and took a walk around the recovery room, that Kendall blue hospital diaper was pretty crinkly and made a lot of noise.

I'm a foley user due to medical necessity. For the last 15 months I've been a catheter user, because of extreme urinary frequency, urgency and incontinence. I get Cathed when my symptoms get real bad. I use silicone foleys. I get them inserted at home by my wife. She's a nurse.

I began to have issues at age 32. I had been a DL since I was a kid, but bought my first bag of diapers at 22. When my problems began during a very stressful time in my life, it began with urinary frequency with urgency and some fairly light incontinence/bladder leakage. I started

If I'm diapering myself, I usually do it standing up leaning against the bed. Or against the wall in the bathroom. If my wife is diapering me, she lays me down on the bed.
