Issues with taped diapers falling down
ozziebee replied to sjaeger's topic in Incontinence - Medical
I also use hockey tape, but only about the length between outstretched thumb and pinkie, and placed evenly directly over the top of the diaper's tape. This is sufficient and works well to hold the diaper tape in place. To the OP, you should have a look at Onesies Downunder for onesies which will be the correct size and come in plain colours, as well as prints. Yo should also think about maybe 4-tape diapers, not two-tape ones, and get away from the Molicares/Abenas. Here in Australia, I've noticed a marked decrease in quality of the Moli's and Arenas in recent batches - the stretch tapes are really thin, held on by about 1cm of overlap with the backing sheet, and after about 30 minutes or so, tear off the backing sheet, so are useless, and the diaper will fall off or be really loose. NDIS + BetterDry or similar would be far better for you. -

Oh, so LDU has fresh stock now? Awesome! I wonder if he has the XL Betterdry? -

Go to Woolworths or Coles, and in the baby section ( ? ) you can find nappy bags, which you can pop the rolled up Betterdry into, then tie up. No more stinky nappy. The nappy bags i use are also slightly deodorant too. -

Where I live, a bushfire started about 5km away. It was reported by some on Facebook that a pair of stoners appeared out of the bush at the time the fire started. After an hour or so, the fire had blown up so much through the scrub that the rural fire service called in aircraft. Was amazing to watch a C130 and a 737 buzz around, and dive into the smoke to drop their fire retardants. That fire was luckily moving away from my house, but we were inundated with smoke and falling black eucalyptus leaves. As I speak, I just heard some thunder! Wow, what a sound! I woke up this morning to hearing rain on the roof! What a novelty! (I do hope the lightning doesn't start another fire nearby). Yes, some areas desperately do need rain, and lots of it. More thunder! Windows creaking from the earthy vibrations! How exciting! I won't go into the causes or otherwise of these terribly massive fires, as this isn't a political discussion. I have my own views, and will leave it to other threads. -

*giggles* Does wife even need to know new friends are from a diaper/AB community, rather than from your professional work community? -

I had a dream the other night that was so lucid, I was dreaming I was wetting my nappy, waking up from that dream to realise I was actually in the middle of wetting, getting so excited about it, but realising I'm still dreaming, and then waking up fully from all the excitement to suddenly realise it was petering out, and wondering to myself "did I just have a pee dream?" The majority of times when I get a night-time urge, the uncomfortable pressures and pain wake me up enough that I immediately release the flood gates. I have recently started to wake up a few times in the morning to "Oh, I don't recall waking up to wet. Oh! I have a dry nappy!!". Nope, the flood gates open on waking, and my seemingly dry nappy and night, is now quite wet... -

Don't worry Oz - a high-powered torch renders the person behind it almost invisible, from the glare of the bright light rendering the observer almost blind. What a fun experience though! -
Cute! Keep going! Write when you can, and have fun doing it. Your writing style is great too. Keep going!

Powerful chapter.

So.. so... so tempting... licks lips. What harm could come of it if I scratched that itch, and had one bottle? Hmm...

That chapter has to be one of the most intense I’ve ever read. This reading has to be my fourth time, I think. I remember the first time I read it, crying my eyes out. Lovely and intense writing!

Wow, umm. At least you have access to something now. Ive spent the past 5 days on a training course, and have built up an understanding with the cleaner here in the hotel. My little teddy bear keeps finding new locations in the room, and I dont tie up the garbage bag each morning. it seems they reuse it. -

Also not for bedwetting but pooping. Mum followed through on her threats a number of times, pinning me into cloth nappies each time. When I was in Year 2, about 7 or 8yo, I’d had a few accidents at school, which prompted a trip to a paediatrician at Camperdown Children’s Hospital. The doc suggested to mum to put me back into nappies, but that only ended up as threats, not anything more permanent. She kept them up as punishment, and I’d sometimes even be changed in front of my cousins! I was 17 or 18 when I bought my first pack of Huggies. Mum eventually found them, and surprisingly didn’t throw them out.

Haha, thats gold! I wonder whether those ones are from a DL covertly wearing at work and disposing before going home, or someone with a need, and find its the only place in the estate to dispose of them thoughtfully? -
Anyone got dimensions (length, width etc) on the XL?

IIRC the base technique of tapping/pushing the bladder multiple times with fingertips is one taught to some SCI patients, to het the bladder to start contractions. I’m not SCI, but every time I’ve tried it, it’s worked.

I wonder whether the cleaner at that place do what the cleaners at my current place of work do when cleaning the toilets (disabled toilet too) - reach in and remove all the rubbish from the bin, but leave the bin liner in place. Cheapskates. 99% of the time, the rubbish in our toilet bins are paper hand towel. So they get away with the practice. The bin liners themselves are often clear plastic, not black. I’ve never changed in these toilets as a result. -
Probably my biggest spelling peeve is “woman” versus “women”. You read that right. I often see “The women touched her toes”. That should actually be “The woman touched her toes”. Second one is literal spelling “She waz speling da werd”. I see that on Facebook all the time n it drives me crasy...

Question: Does Martha know at this stage what luzy went through, and has chosen Luzy as the sitter based on that, to get Luzy to start down the path towards therapy?

Oh! Oh! I absolutely adore this story! I’ve read the full version a few times now. So I know what’s around the corner for Luzy. Certainly hope ya dont make me cry whilst reading this amazing tale on the train again!
