mark51669 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Hard to go wrong with brands like Rearz, Abuniverse and Crinklz. Those are the top three in my diaper drawer Link to comment
Elenwen Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Abena and Molicare. Abena has more absorbency, Molicare has better fit. But both brands are pretty good. Link to comment
yukon2545 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Check to see what Changing Times Diaper Company they are at Changingtimesdiaperco.comSent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Link to comment
Bettypooh Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Check for Canadian sellers, taxes and imported shipping can be high there. Medical/Incontinent style go for Molicare, Abena, or Tena. Printed diapers go for what you like. Retail store diapers usually suck, but Depends has some useful for light wetting. Premium brands may seem costly in comparison but last much longer between changes compared to store brands and Depends, so buy based on how long you plan to wear and how much use they will see. Many online stores offer sample packs which I feel is the best way to start; trying different diapers can be fun Bettypooh Link to comment
rusty pins Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I suggest what ever diaper you get (it sounds like you haven't yet worn diapers) that you experiment at home in a place that won't cause you to wet furniture or anything like that. Perhaps put down a plastic trash bag and a towel before you sit in a chair or lay in bed. Different brands of diapers will absorb differently. The premium brands people have mentioned will absorb a lot while the store brands you get at Wallgreens and CVS won't absorb as much. Also it's best not to do what people call "Flood" your diaper. That means if you have to piss like a horse don't just let it all out at once fast and hard in your diaper. Your diaper may not be able to absorb it all that fast and leak. Better to let it out slowly a little at a time over a minute or two and give your diaper a chance to absorb it. Also with different diapers some can handle many wettings over several hours and others will leak sooner. Before venturing out and about with diapers on, test them at home and see just how much you are able to wet them over time before they start to leak. Same goes for diapers if you plan to mess in them. Gennerally the store brands of diapers will do better when you mess in them as absorbency isn't as critical, but the consistancy of your stools can play a roll. If you mess a big load and it is loose, your diaper may leak it out weather it's a store brand or a premium brand. Firmer harder stools will be better in your diaper but even then if you have a huge load you poop out into your diaper, it could leak out the sides and crotch area. For messes you want a good diaper with a wider crotch and full seat for containment. Just experiment with any diaper you decide to get in order to learn their limits and capacity. Some will be better than others for absorbency but they may really be thick and bulky and swell up the more you wet them. Fun, but maybe not as discreet under thin cotton shorts in the summer if you are around people. In that case, it may be better to go with a thinner less absorbent store brand and just change your diaper more often. 2 Link to comment

dressupDV Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 What rustypins said: i use girlsgoodnites and you can't flood those, but they are fun to wet a little at a time - ive gotten good at that ;-> Also, once you get comfortable wetting, you might find flooding and leaking an equal amount of fun. 1 Link to comment
