Putting diapers on for yourself, how do you?

[Chiraisu]

How do you guys like putting diapers on? Do you start with a side? Top or bottom tab first? Are there any places (on the diaper) you prefer?

There are many forum post here about how people put their diapers on, how some prefer laying down and others standing up or using a wall to help.

I use net fixing pants to hold them in place before fixing the tapes.

I used to be a top tabs first guy, but I've switched to doing the bottom ones now.

For me the problem has always been getting a proper fit on the bottom tapes, you don't want to pull them to tight, at the same time you dont want to leave them to loose. I feel like the trick is to make a "pocket" of sorts in the crotchal region while pulling the bottom flaps more along your upper thigh area, make sure the gathers are standing though otherwise you'll have a bad time.

I do mine, ether on a flat surface like my bed, or if I'm in public standing, I prefer laying but bathroom floors are way to browse for that.

everyone puts on a diaper different try a few different ways and see what works.

Always used to change laying down (where possible) but now I'm firmly a "standing up" kinda guy. Bottom tapes first, and then top tapes, angled downwards slightly.

Almost always I lie down on my over-size changing table to have my gauze diapers pinned, or to pin them by myself. When I was a kid during trips I learned to pin on gauze diapers standing up, using the wall of a ladies' room stall to hold the back of the diaper. Of course when ladies' rooms had changing tables I used those.

These days I usually wear GoodNites Tru-Fit as my day diaper. I can slide the panty part down enough to change the disposable pad without undressing.

Before that I had learned to change disposable diapers in ladies' room stalls. I would Position the top of the diaper where it needed to be. Then I back up against a wall to hold it while I tape my left leg snug. Then I tape the right leg. Only then do I tape the left top and last the right top. With six-tape diapers I always do the middle ones last.

Most of the time, I'll change standing. I pull the back up, using a wall for support, then do the bottom tapes first, then the top.

I like to stand up pull the diaper between my legs, even out front and back. Then bottom tape right, then left. Finish with top tapes the same way.

Very easy and fast.

Tight around the legs, comfortable around the waist. Make sure there's no gaps in the back and all the folds are flattened out from removing it from the package. I backup against a wall.

I usually diaper laying down. I find when I do it standing against a wall, it tapes on too tight and stiff, and I get uncomfortable.

I normally do the top tapes first, that way I can make sure the bottom tapes are snug around my legs, and if need be, I can go back and tighten up the waist with the top tapes.

I do the top tapes first and then the bottom ones
