At what wettness-level do you change your diaper?

[Mysterion]

I'm just curious when you change your diaper. If you have any other answers, just ad them.

I change when my cloth diaper when it starts to get heavy and sags.  A fresh clean diaper feels oh so good

[Angela Bauer]

I answered 50% because that was the closest choice,

Actually I am far more concerned by urine going stale than the remaining capacity of my diaper. Of course I try to save some money by wearing the least expensive disposable diaper that will not leak before the urine turns stale.During the summer here in So California daytime 5 hours is the safe limit before urine becomes stale and irritating. I have tested my GoodNites Tru-Fit when it is cool enough I can wear them for over 6 hours before they are saturated. I wet more when it is cool, so I feel safe wearing a Tru-Fit for 5 hours. The inserts cost little and are easily changed discreetly in a public ladies' room.

At home when we have no outsider visitors I wear pinned gauze diapers inside vinyl panties. I can use up to 3 soakers. With 3 soakers in bedroom air conditioning I can sleep 8 hours without stale urine or leaks. Moving around before bed I use one or two soakers, so I have 4 or 5 hours capacity.

I also answered 50%, how ever, this depends on the situation. If I’m on the way, I need sometimes the “headroom” - that’s one of the reasons why I use still  diapers in this case. Over the daytime - when a toilet is in reach I use pads and I change them if a accident happens. In this case they are mostly saturated so they wouldn’t cope with a second accident. But this happens luckily not that often anymore and meanwhile I have even days without daytime accidents. Over the nighttime I need to use diapers, and they are also often at their limit in the morning.

Shortly after it cools. I love the warm pee flowing over my junk

[puffy_bottom]

Usually I change when life circumstances make me - have to go pick up the kids or something - so there are times when I can't use a whole diaper. But I never soak one all the way up the back, it's usually about 95% full unless I'm sloshing around in my overnight. Still then I will change and poop in the potty rather than poop in it since my partner isn't a fan of that.

[Fakename4me]

I went with 50% even though I probably wait until 75%.  At 75% I can usually tell it is time for me to change.  95% is too close  to leakage for me.

[WetDad]

It really depends for me- on a number of details. 

Am I where I can change quickly & discretely when I need to?

Will I be away from such a place in the near future?

Have I been using these diapers for a long time and really trust them to know when they reach capacity?

Am I just getting into a new case of diapers? (I may not trust them as much)

What did I eat for lunch?

How many glasses of water have I had today?

[360dude]

I went with 95%. Basically I try to avoid really thick diapers because my skin gets irritated when I wear a wet diaper for extended periods (like abu space can last me almost all day). So I try to stick with good medical style diapers that usually last me 4-6 hours of wetting and so I can change regularly. That way I don’t feel like I’m wasting anything. 

[stevewet]

When at home i wear them almost to the point of leaking. Basically I am lazy and an't be bothered to change until I have to plus why waste a nappy. If possible when out and about I change once they become noticably wet.

[dlnoir]

It varies. While at home I tent to push the boundaries as far as I can yet try to avoid leaks, simply hate leaks. While out and about I am more aware and change well before any leaks might occur. I usually wear disposables out and very thin cloth diaper and a plastic pant. I do not mind if the thin cloth diaper gets wet it is meant as a safe guard anyway.

 

[willnotwill]

I'm usually wearing one of the top notch diaper (NSC supreme, better dry, comfidry) and they'll take a lot.   My general rule of thumb is that if I feel wet, the diaper is likely full and won't take anymore.    I will often give it two good fills and then change.    I was on a airline trip last week and I thought I was good as was heading to baggage claim at the destination but suddenly developed a leak.    Made an immediate detour for a change.

[nenog613]

it varies. sometimes its one and done, other time i wet them over and over. but the limit is when walking in a diaper is more annoying than enjoyable

[Dookey]

I choose 100 percent, I try to change before it leaks. 

[Warmwetandcozy]

For me it depends at home my girlfriend always changes me and if she's busy I could be leaking before she realizes I need a change which makes me feel really helpless and babyish

If out in public I change myself at 75% I don't want leaks its extremely rude to leave a puddle in your seat if you can help it

I tend to make the most from my diapers.  The low end store brands I get a Goodwill usually last about 3 hours, roughly the time I spend most mornings surfing Daily Diapers, Diapermates and other things I need to do on my computer.  Some times I spend a little longer on the computer or have a cheaper diaper and I leak some.  With a premium diaper which I rarely use unless I'm going out of town for the day (rare) or I have the house to myself for a few days and don't have to work, I will keep it on as long as possible, up to 10 or more hours if it's not leaking.  Naturally, something could come up that would require me to change out of a diaper, such as being called in to work or a friend calling me to go somewhere with him or help him with a project.  Barring anything like that, I will generally stay in my diaper until it won't hold anymore.

I am wasting money if I don't wait till it's Full

[dlsafrica]

I wait till I'm bursting, so to speak, and then just release. Normally, the diaper will be full wet because if I do it again, it leaks. BUT, depending on the diaper (the one I had five years ago was amazing at this), I stayed in it for 24 hours before changing. The diaper brand I got last month (which I won't again) was too uncomfortable, although absorbent.

[Dubious]

Whenever I can, I wait until they start leaking or is about to leak, after using the same brand for a long time you will notice stuff like this

Only times I change early is if I have to go out and diaper wont last the duration I'll be out, or when I get home from work and I really need a shower and sometimes it falls apart when taking it off, so not putting it back on

[Sailor Snow]

I choose 50% but for the most part its when i want to change.

[Kinster]

I always mean to change the diaper before it leaks, but I probably have little leaks about 50% of the time. I just like hanging out in them. 

[JamieJamie]

I would change it when I start to feel the leaking when I sit down most of the time.  Or if I am doing something-standing or walking and start to feel the liquid pooling up in already soaked diaper, I'd go change too. 

[diaperedandspanked]

when it hits maximum and starts leaking.

[Pete671]

Depends where I am, at home with my armchair protected, I'll wait until my jeans are soaked as well, out in public perhaps 50%, I clicked on 110% as that's the most pleasurable for me,,, 

[BabyJune]

A poopie diaper gets changed right away. For a wet diaper, I can usually go three or four hours (or a bit more) before needing to be changed. I wear cloth diapers with Zorb soaker panels and terry cloth boosters under PUL waterproof pull-on pants.
