Dear Lucy,                I have some more info for you which I meant to add to my previous post.HDIS has a brief sample pack for youths for $9.95.You might want to check with them to see if they have a pack specifically designed for overnight use.I thought I saw an overnight sample pack also-you might want to doublecheck with them.Their phone number is (800)269-4663.Their web address is www.hdis.com. They also have a personalized delivery plan.For instance you can arrange to have your products shipped to you at a specific time interval such as 4 weeks for example.You can save an additional 5% with this plan.     Another company that sells disposable briefs is Continence Connection.I believe their web address is www.continenceconnection.com. They say on their website that if you find a cheaper price online they'll match it.They sell Tranquilty All Through The Night Disposable briefs which they say is their best selling diaper.Their phone number is (888)356-6993.     There is a disposable brief designed specifically for heavy incontinence/overnight use called the Secure X Plus disposable brief.They're sold by both G.Hirsch and Company.Their web address is www.ghirschco.com and their phone number is (800)638-8800.I'm not sure if they just deal in wholesale or whether or not they sell retail also but you might want to contact them to  find out.Another company that sells this product is called securepersonalcare.com.Their phone number is (866)440-0049.They make a small brief which is for waist sizes 22"-34" so it may or may not fitr your son.It seems like most youth brief sizes start at 18" and some go buy weight also so when inquring about this I would also give his weight size.      Attends has a youth brief also but I'm not sure how good they are.I think they used to be better years ago when they were owned by Proctor and Gamble(the same company that manufacturers Pampers and Luvs) You might want to see if they have samples.     The website for Principle Business Products(the company that maufactures the Tranquility All Through the Night disposable youth briefs) is www.tranquilityproducts.com.     Finally there is a brief manufactured in Europe called the Euron brief.The Europeans have a good reputation for making quality incontinence products-for instance Abena is manufactured in Denmark-they seem to be more absorbent than many American products.I'm not sure if they're imported yet to the U.S. but you could contact them.I have the contact info somewhere but if you do a Google search and type in Euron incontinence brief you should be able to come up with the company.     One thing you have to keep in mind is that choosing an incontinence product is a very personal decision.Sometimes what one person likes might not work out for you that's why it's good to experiment with different brands and types of diapers and try to get samples if possible.Fortunately many companies will send out samples either for free or for a nominal price.     Also I wouldn't necessarily rule out trying pin-on cloth diapers and plastic pants(if you have the time and inclination to do laundry) Many people including me consider them the best type of diaper to use for bedwetting.Hope this helps.                                    Sincerely,                                  Colin
