    The "I told someone" thread

    I understand the desire to be accepted and to have your feelings validated. But I haven't seen many comments about the risks of disclosing highly personal information to others. Once that has been shared, you have no control over it. It could have very negative consequences for you in your...

    I think it would depend on how and where you plan to use the name.

    Urinary Incontinence Guidance needed

    Hi, XZBrandonYZ. Visits to a urologist are like visits to any physician, except that they expect you to talk about problems with your urinary system. That actually makes it easier. As for disclosing this to your family, again, it is like any other health or personal matter. Not everyone needs...

    Any tips for keeping cool in the summer?

    I have now tried out the cloth-backed Seni Super Plus diapers. They absorb a lot, and far more than I expected. They are surprisingly thin given their capacity, and they are definitely cooler than the plastic-backed Better Dry diapers I used just before the Senis. On the other hand, the Seni...

    Any tips for keeping cool in the summer?

    Oh, BuildingBlocks, I almost forgot! I found something that's working for me as I wait for my Seni diapers to arrive--which I ordered on the advice offered here. I have some large Abena diaper doublers. I put them inside of an Abena pull-up, and it did help a lot in terms of absorbancy. There...

    Any good cloth/breathable diapers for summer?

    Thanks so much for all the helpful advice! PaddedRomeo, I especially appreciate your thoughtful replies. I found a single 25-pack of Seni Super Plus on Walmart.com for a reasonable price. If they are helpful I'll try to remember to post back here for others who are trying to solve the same...

    Any tips for keeping cool in the summer?

    Yes, so true, FriendlyArm. My personal quest for cool and absorbant was renewed a couple weeks ago. I wore a pull-up under jeans to go for walk on a local rail-to-trail. I was well over a mile from my car when I lost control of my bladder. It was awful; wet streaks all the way down one leg and...

    Any good cloth/breathable diapers for summer?

    Thank you, ParaRomeo. I haven't heard of the Tranquility Smartcore before or the Goldbond powder. I'll look into them. I have used the Seni Quatro diapers before. They were pretty good, but they were thick. And I found thick turned into hot in the summer. And I don't much like the diaper bum...

    Any tips for keeping cool in the summer?

    Nice to meet you, BuildingBlocks! Just a few days ago I posted a similar question in another forum. This is what I know. First, I totally get feeling insecure and worrying someone will notice. The good news is that it gets easier. You'll learn tricks that work for you. And you'll become more...

    Thank you, JoeRelax and BabyAbbyAdultTrish, for your advice. It is good to hear what's working for others.

    Any good cloth/breathable diapers for summer?

    Has anyone found a good high capacity breathable diaper for summer use? I've tried before and always returned to plastic backed. The cloth style covers seem to sag when wet, many weep \wetness through the cover, and sometimes the rough texture irritates the skin on my legs. In the past I've...

    Printed Diaper Shortage?

    I've never heard of NRU or Save Express. Where do they do business? I'm in the U.S.
