    Hip replacement

    I used to have a job where I reviewed CT scans for robotically assisted hip replacements. It was quite common to see patients wearing diapers. The key to getting a good scan, besides having a skilled technician, is to not move when you're in the scanner. Remain as still as possible. A lot of...

    Incontrol Essential Scent

    I don't understand why these are being discontinued. I thought the BeDry was supposed to replace the Original, not the Essential.

    Incontrol vs betterdry

    I just wish Betterdry wasn't out of stock constantly. I was going to buy some more last week but ended up going with the BeDry instead for that reason.

    InControl's Newest Disposable Diaper is AWESOME - BeDry!

    These are a great diaper. I like everything about them except the taping panel, which is actually not as bad as most taping panels, but would still be better without it. I think I might try the BeDry Night next since it uses a hybrid design with hook-and-loop tapes on a plastic shell.

    I don't like taping panels

    I've tried different sizes of MegaMax and while there is some marginal improvement it doesn't seem to really make much of difference. Sure, but I don't see what the problem is with 2nd chance tapes. They work fine for me. It's very rare that I ever have to adjust a diaper more than once after...

    I don't like taping panels

    This might be a controversial opinion, but I don't like taping panels. First of all, they make it nearly impossible to get nice, snug fit around the waist and legs. This is because they limit the area where you can actually tape the diaper due to the fact that they usually don't go up high...

    Incontrol vs betterdry

    I've worn hundreds of Betterdry's and never had one split. The padding does tend fall apart and clump a bit over time, but it's actually no where near as bad as some other diapers like the Abena M4's I just ordered where the padding just totally falls apart when they get saturated. They're...

    Did a friend asked you are you incontinent/wearing diapers?

    What was it that initially aroused her suspicions? The crinkle? A waistband sticking out? Or just the bulge itself?

    Asking for comments re: a new Wikipedia edit on the Wikipedia Adult Diaper page?

    Now you're asking the right question. How do you categorize, in the most general way, the various reasons why an individual might wear an adult diaper? Let's say hypothetically you do a survey where you ask every person wearing an adult diaper at a single moment in time why they are wearing it...

    Asking for comments re: a new Wikipedia edit on the Wikipedia Adult Diaper page?

    This is also not true. Incontinence is not defined by the need to wear incontinence products. It is defined by the uncontrolled leakage of urine or stool. Functional incontinence just means that a person is aware of the need to urinate, but for one or more physical or mental reasons they are...

    Asking for comments re: a new Wikipedia edit on the Wikipedia Adult Diaper page?

    I've never heard of the phrase before either. Where is the citation for this claim, @Yooda? Your usage of quotes is also problematic here. But aside from that, there is a whole host of non-occupational reasons why a continent individual might opt to wear an adult diaper, such as a lack of...

    I get what you're trying to do here, @Yooda but there are a lot of issues that you need to fix in order to bring this article up to Wikipedia standards, many of which @BunnyFofo has been helpful enough to point out but you have not addressed yet.

    Goodnites Innovation 2023?

    That's a great idea. I also wish they would use a range of waist sizes instead of a weight range for the sizes.

    Do you think plastic backed diapers will disappear? Lets have a poll.

    In my observations, it's really the under 30 demographic, more specifically under 25, that leans more towards cloth back. Almost everyone born in the 90s still wore plastic-backed diapers.

    Could you ask him why he sold XP Medical? It's gone to shit ever since it was bought by LiveAnew, or whatever conglomerate owns them now.
