It really depends on time of day and whether I'm home alone. As I'm "kind of" 24/7, i.e. since lockdown I've been wearing non stop, despite much grumbling from the wife we've got through it so far, but if I'm left alone, I'll just do it in the nappy I'm wearing, shower and change. If I'm not alone, best thing about the latest Tykables nappies is the vecro fastening. The bottom tabs undo nicely, easy to slide the nappy down, do what you need, stand up, pull it up and refasten the bottom tabs, regardless of how much wee is in it.

Quite! I moved from Tena and other "medical" makes to ABU and more recently Tykables as they just work. No drama, easily adjustable, just the best nappy to wear at night bar none. If the medical companies take note that can only be a good thing.

Tykables are the only nappy I like wearing at night now. The hook and loop 'tapes' are awesome as you can readjust with no loss of stickiness and because of their ridiculously high capacity, night time leaks are rarer than other makes. Yes they are expensive, but you will need fewer of them if like me you also try to get away with wearing in the day too when you can If I were to make one little grumble, I'd like the plastic to be smoother, but you can't have it all! Edit: Just realised my profile pic is a Tykables Unicorn!

haha, sometimes I'd love to give the game away and stand up ... massively career limiting though. I have purposefully done the odd rustle though, no one else will know, or probably even hear above loving their own voices ;)

I'm stuck on conference calls pretty much 9-5 at the moment, there is ALWAYS someone who requires my direction, attention or general input. So I've been pretty much 24/7 much to my wife's annoyance ... "isn't it time you showered now?" is generally heard around 6pm. No problem, quick shower, change, clean nappy - brilliant! However there was one afternoon where I had a 3 hour meeting, including the chairman. Incidentally I was home alone anyway that day, but I did something I rarely do (else I'd be thrown out the house) and properly filled my nappy - I needed to go, call coming up, so I just did it and sat there, for over 3 hours on this call. Giving my high level input and erudite commentary, or whatever the hell I'm paid for, wallowing around in the biggest nappy I've had on for a LONG time. I know it's not for everyone, but it's been so long since I've done that, I enjoyed it. Until I had to clean up ... grim. But yes, I've always done it when working from home anyway, but it's been a permanent thing since early March and I'm very much enjoying it. Our office is closed until 2021, can't say I'm sad about that either Additional nappies beyond my required / mandated amount are a lot cheaper than commuting into London every day.

What make of compression pants do you wear? It's a minefield out there ...

Hah, yes, I was thinking about the "one size up" only to think that lately I need to do that anyway. Plus I went for a treadmill run to shift some timber and have pulled a muscle in my leg - out of shape, out of condition, out of practise and not enough warming up. Damn it.

How did that experiment go? I'm genuinely interested. I think I said this before, but I just can't see how I could get away with a booster and a Tykables - but I like your investigation. What size are you wearing by the way, M or L?

No, I couldn't. Most of Krav Maga is about kicking people in the bollocks and generally we'd wear a box for practise, so wearing a nappy would be just a "no". Besides, with some of the grabbling I've lost my trousers. I mean I could lie about needing them full time, but I'd rather not - I train with a sound bunch of lads including bodyguards, squaddies and coppers, so it's not a thing I'd like to share with that lot However on another note, I am starting to think about WHEN we're allowed back to the office, not that I want to go, but how I can maybe get away with 24/7 ... I think I'd miss wearing them too much. I think @oznl alluded to this, but for me now it's going beyond a plain old fetish and more of a need, a desire to do or be something different and just wear nappies all the time ...

Absolutely, I'm exclusively wearing Tykables at the moment (Unicorns, Puppers, whatever, I don't care, they're amazing nappies) - so I was wearing one of them with plastic pants over the top. I have never been the best long distance runner, the best I've done 5km in is 26 minutes and that was 11 years ago ... running isn't my thing. Boxing, Krav Maga and generally fighting sports are my thing, but not running, football, tennis, rugby or anything like that. Anyway, so yes, it was a sloooooooow 'run', but it held up well for me. New experience today though. We had the paddling pool out in the garden for my son, my wife was sat in it, my son was messing around coming down the slide into it, general things that a young lad loves to do. My wife said to me (knowing I hadn't showered/changed) "why don't you sit down as well in it", with a smirk in her eye. I thought about it and did anyway - massive baggy gardening shorts on, underneath I had plastic pants and a nappy. Anyway, I stayed there for 10 mins or so cooling down then got out. I was shocked, the plastic pants were a total lock out, none of the pool water got through - I was amazed as I expected to be struggling.

Funny reading the last couple of posts. This must be a 'lockdown thing' but 2 weeks ago I decided to get back on my treadmill. I've been incredibly lazy and wallowing around in a nappy all day whilst on conference calls all day from 9-6pm and I feel a bit unhealthy. Sadly (or fortunately, I shouldn't complain), my work has been full on and I can't exercise in the morning, never have been able to, I need to have lunch and come 6pm when I wrap up, it's family meal time and who wants to exercise after that? So I thought I'd try to shut work out at 5pm which is not as easy as it sounds because I work with a load of people who seem to come alive at that time, when I'm totally the opposite and am useless at work between 4-7pm. I do like working again later 10/11pm in the evenings though. But anyway, come 5pm I thought what the hell, let's get on that treadmill and get fitter again. Thinking about time and efficiency, I threw on some running shoes and just thought I'd run with a fairly wet nappy (and plastic pants) on under my shorts. It was a weird experience ... I "ran" for 40 minutes at a pace which I'm not sharing with you but I was surprised that I had no chafing or anything. I didn't know if it was because of the amount of cream I already had on? The killer was going to shower afterwards ... I honestly thought the toxicity of the ammonia was going to make me light-headed and pass out, hah! Still, it was an interesting experiment. Have I been back on the treadmill since? No. Different reason, I developed achilles tendonitis as I'm a tubby, lazy, unfit Dad-bod and didn't warm up properly. Oh well. Maybe next week ...

I know you're right, but part of my likes the excitement that they *might* know ... something else you said about choosing fetishes rings true, why the hell would anyone CHOOSE this and for me, I love the humiliation too, so why would I choose it? Ah well, it's all good fun. Having said that, I've been pushing the boundaries on nappies - Tykables Unicorns and Tykables Puppers have not got a mention - doesn't matter what's on the nappy, she hates them all, so it's fine. But I've been branching out on plastic pants too (as I like the extra security at night) and got some Cuddlz pink plastic pants with the cartoon cats on (and why not, why should I not wear them). I left them under the duvet and when the bed was changed today, I was summoned to the room with a "what the actual f**k are these?" ... I just muttered that's all they had (blaming coronavirus and stock) and nothing more was discussed.

Love it! It's those little moments that I enjoy in life - that acceptance but not acceptance, but it's "okay". A couple of other moments have stood out for me too - on our VE Day 75 bank holiday, my wife wanted a picnic in the garden, but she actually insisted that I showered and came down in 'normal' clothes, so I did, begrudgingly. Anyway, it got to about 1630 and I said bluntly "I'm going to get changed for bed" which got a "it's half four?", but I said "yes, I want to feel relaxed" and went about getting changed back into a Tykables Unicorn. Thick and loud. About an hour later I had a whatsapp message from a neighbour saying "did you realise that the street is having a socially distant VE Day party at 6pm?". No I didn't. Anyway, we ventured out, over the road and stood 2-3m from our neighbours opposite and were joined by our next door neighbours - unlike a lot of British roads, our houses have plenty of front garden and space, so it was easy to be distant. But there I am, in a t-shirt and flimsy shorts, with a Tykables Unicorn underneath, drinking wine in front of our neighbours - but I'd made my decision and thought what the hell and went with it. Every time I moved from one foot to the other, I'm certain the crrrch crrrch was louder than a spitfire in WWII. 1.5 hours later, we bid farewell and walked back to our house, my god, maybe it's only me that can hear the noise but it was SO loud. I think the moral of that story is if you get ready for bed early, you may have to have awkward situations! And finally, on your point about walking like a cowboy, again last week, we were talking about fat backsides. I don't have a fat backside - medium fits nicely. My wife said "your arse is massive right now" as she prodded my very full up nappy (it was late in the day, almost shower time). Little things ... cause happiness, intentional or not Good shout on the powder too. Although I am convinced when I overdo the powder, my rubbish chest is definitely worse (coughing, tight, wheezing)- so I try to lay off it.

I did just that about 2 months ago. My wife was nipping out to the shops (just before 'lockdown', so maybe 3 months) and I genuinely needed some nappy cream ... I sent a text saying "please could you get nappy cream". She did. Nothing was said, it appeared on the steps for me to take up and put away. What is there to lose? Worst case in my view is that you'll get an eye roll or a "you're far too old to be wearing nappies" ... which I secretly love to hear anyway, but that's another story ...

I still love reading this threads that Little Sheri and Oznl have started. As you know (or may not, or don't care, whatever), I've been wearing nappies at night since forever as a bedwetter and my wife accepts the situation but dislikes nappies, knowing that it's a need and she puts up with it. As I've said, I always wear during the day when working from home and shower later - she used to moan but leave me be. Occasionally I'd manage to sneak in the odd morning change before getting up if I didn't think the night nappy would last all day. As time has gone on, I've progressed to wearing ALL day and when showering, changing straight back into a clean nappy "ready for bed". Or, when getting in from work around 8pm, going up and "getting ready for bed". Since we've been stuck at home, now just over 2 months, I've pretty much been wearing 24/7. Well, it started out that I'd get up, do some work and shower, then maybe get ready for bed around 6 or 7pm, but now I'll just shower and change straight away from anytime form 3 to 6pm. Nothing is said, I think the reluctant acceptance has crept in - she knows I'm happy and just leaves me be. Sorry this is pretty boring, but I guess for me, it feels like a big change suddenly. She must know that I use them during the day too as I never emerge form work calls except to make us tea and coffee - surely she doesn't think I have a camel bladder? Who knows, but it feels liberating, I think that's the best word, to be more free.

Yeah, I'm not making a fuss about it and not complaining. 3 days ago, we were both in the bedroom together and I was wanting to get ready for bed, so I pulled a new pack of Tykables Puppers out the wardrobe, opened the pack and tossed one on the bed. I think we're both just comfortable with the situation, after all, what are hiding from? But then it's funny, if I mention "nappies", I get the eye roll and a "you shouldn't need those" grumble. I get it, I'm not forcing anything on anyone, the gradual acceptance is enough for me. And as a mini side-review, I won't wear anything else other than the new Tykables now. My go-to used to be ABU Simple, but these Tykables are unreal - far fewer leaks, maximum absorption, wide but comfortable and whilst they are expensive, you need far fewer of them; I can go from a night time one, through to late afternoon. They wouldn't be a good daytime nappy though for people who were out and about, the rustle is VERY loud ... and I have hearing issues. At the moment when I walk out to the garden for my lockdown lunchtime, I'm pretty sure the crrch crrch crrch as I walk could be heard 4 streets down.

It's a funny one, when I used to work from home on the odd day a week, I'd keep a nappy on as my wife was generally at work and remove it at the end of the day - so it was always on top of the rubbish bin, nothing was ever said. Now I'm getting up, having breakfast and cracking straight on with conference calls. I don't emerge for hours, despite drinking gallons of tea and coffee, yet I have never been asked where I go to the loo ... I just go up and shower around 5pm, cook the dinner and then get ready for bed again. No questions, but I don't push anything. She must know I keep using it during the day, surely!? To prolong a nappy, I stuff one of those Tykables 2000ml boosters in before I go to bed, then when I wake up and grab breakfast, I normally have a couple of minutes to pull that booster out and stuff it in the bin. Mostly the Tykables nappy I'm wearing is then empty(ish) for the day ahead - seems to be working well. I'm starting to think that as long as I don't mention the unmentionable (she's okay with me being a bedwetter, but nappies just annoy her still), that she's happy that I'm happy, if that makes sense? So I just don't talk about it and get on with it.

So what happened? Did you own up or make something up? What did she say? I'm curious.

I hate asparagus too. I love the taste of it, but there's something really off-putting about waking up to that asparagus smell, especially when I plan to sit around WFH in the same nappy. It's rancid.

It is common across all their nappies. I used to only wear ABU Simple, but then I got fed up with them tearing at the same place. It was during the night or before I'd finished taping up and as I wear for incontinence, I decided they weren't for me. I tried a few others in their range and they also tore in the same place. Tykeables and Rearz are both a step above. To give them credit, I have contacted ABU a couple of times and they've replaced with no fuss ... but ... they shouldn't have to. They should just be proper quality in the first place.

I'm in England - luckily we do seem to have a variety of retailers who stock up on all options. I hear you though, the cost is higher than a medical nappy. My wife doesn't know that I spend extra on these, but the bed is dry and because they're so good, I continue to wear during the day at weekends or when working from home with no worries. Although my using of them during the day is hidden too, as I've said before. I actually thought she'd blow up about me wearing Tykables, but I braved it. One morning while getting ready for work in the morning I stripped off to jump in the shower, whilst in the bedroom and walked to the bathroom wearing just a wet Tykables Unicorn. I was waiting for the "WTF are you wearing?" but nothing came. So I've stuck with them. And now I've added the Tykables booster pads to prolong my usage. Actually, about a month ago we were both ill for a week with some crappy flu-like illness (no, not the current craze) and I wore Unicorns 24/7 for the entire week. Not once did she bat an eyelid. But then the following week I was told off for leaving a "thing" out and not hidden. Sigh.

ABU simples were my go-to nappy for about the last 18 months. Secure, absorbent, not massively expensive and a nice fit. However I had a couple of cases where the right hand side or left hand side would come undone, leaving fluffy padding floating around. To be fair, they replaced the cases free and sorted me out, but I got dubious about the quality vs cost, so I've switched to Tykables and I couldn't be happier. All the new Tykables range follow the same pattern and hook & loop system. I've not had one failure or duff nappy. Yes the are more expensive, but as I wear for genuine need at night, I'd rather pay for the extra security they give. The one other nappy I do like is the good old Rearz Safari. They take loads of liquid, they are thick, they crinkle. What's not to like. But I hope your ABU simples are a better batch than the last few I had. Incidentally, I tried the new ABU hook and loop nappies and didn't like them. The designs were far too busy and the plastic was weird and oily feeling. No thanks.

I've also been trying out booster pads - I opted for the Tykables Dubblers as I'm wear Tykables Unicorns at the moment. My observations; - Yes they add significant thickness if you want to achieve that - You REALLY feel like you're wearing a nappy - The booster will get soaked first, even after 2 decent wettings while the actual nappy is still dry - With the Unicorns, as they are hook and loop, I've been unhooking the lower two tabs, pulling out the booster and putting a dry one in its place. Pull up the nappy, tape it back securely and you're good to go again. - I haven't leaked at night with a booster As you're able to pull the booster out and replace, it works out significantly cheaper than changing your nappy. I went 24 hours in the same Unicorns nappy, but used 3 boosters instead - on the 3rd booster I just kept it on to see how long it would take before EVERYTHING was maxed out. The answer was a long time. So long that I didn't achieve it before I wanted to change for bed. Oh and if you want discreetness, that isn't happening. Even when dry the bulge in my shorts was massive - but still, fun trying and if you want to go through fewer 'premium' nappies and use more boosters, it'll work out cheaper.

This! That's a good point about staying away, that needs more careful planning. I generally wear a quieter nappy under tighter plastic pants and I have these PJ bottoms that are REALLY baggy so they pretty much conceal anythings should I need to leap out of bed with others around.

Disposable nappy and plastic pants to stop it moving around - that's it, unless it's very very cold then I'll throw a t-shirt on too. I'm really hot, my wife complains I'm like a radiator, haha.
