Dealing with Diapers

Could you avoid your trips home by taking extra diaper in a tote bag (zip top)?

Also, aren't there more absorbent diapers? I wear Depend & am considering adding waterproof underpants.  When I'm away from home during the day, I carry an

extra diaper in a 'ziploc' or paper bag so I can put the "used" diaper in it & throw it

away when I've changed to the new one.

Depend is an expensive brand, but i haven't been able to find a diaper with EXTRA absorbency.

THE WAY I DO IT IS I PUT ONE DIAPER ON TOP OF THE FIRST ONE AND DUCT TAPE IT COZ THE TAPES WILL NOT HOLD OTHERWISE AND THEN WHEN I WET I JUST GO THE THE RESTROOM AND THROW AWAY THE INNER DIAPER AND GO TO MY CAR AND PUT ON A NEW INNER DIAPER , I GOT PRIVTIES THERE COZ OF TINTED WINDOWS , I AM IN ALBUQUERQUE , NM . WEAR ARE YOU AT ? IF YOU DO NOT MIND ME ASKING? I JUST TRING TO FIND FRIENDS THAT UNDERSTAND , I GOT A GIRLFRIEND IN THE PHILIPPINES AND SHE UNDERSTANDS TOO , BUT SHE ALSO WANTS SOMETHING FROM ME , TO MARRY HER AND BRING HER TO THE STATES....I AM IN THE PROESS OF DOING JUST THAT .

Hi Jeffrey -

I sure would like to be among people who share the incontinence 'dilemma' - for support AND ideas (e.g., duct tape?) on how to deal with it.  I think the IncontinenceNetwork.com is a great site.  At least we all can communicate and

share experiences & ideas regardless of where we live.

I live quite a distance from NM - NEW JERSEY, 2 miles south of the George

Washington Bridge - usually the fastest way to Manhattan ('DOCTOR MECCA')

and to Upstate New York & New England.

RE: Duct Tape - interesting and novel idea.  I'm a frequent 'duct-taper' but not on my diapers - I think I would take too much time separating the diapers.  I usually have to change at turnpike restareas or supermarket bathrooms - people in line get hostile if they have to wait too long.  Also, isn't wearing 2 diapers at once BULKY?  I wear shorts in the summer & slacks in the winter - I'd think I would be bulging all over, NO?

My 2 biggest problems with diapers:  CHAFING & ODOR.  I used baby powder

for some years, but recently I found it makes the chafing worse. 

Let me know how things are going - and don't let the 'turkeys' diapers get you down. 

Best wishes...SusanG.

I JUST DUCT TAPE THE TOP DIAPER SO IT JUST COVERS THE INTERDIAPER AND SO I CAN PULL THEM DOWN WITHOUT RIPING THEM AND TAKE THE INTER ONE OFF  AND PUT A NEW INTER ON AND PULL THE OUTER BACK UP
