    Did any of your siblings become a bedwetter and had to wear a diaper?

    My brother is also 2 years younger than me, and he wet the bed and wore diapers until he was 14ish. I got "mostly" dry and stopped wearing night diapers when I was almost 13. We shared a room for much of our childhood too. He claims he hasn't had bedwetting come back like it has for me. We...

    If you are a diaper lover...1) Are you male or female?, 2) Did you wet the bed as a kid?, 3) Are you "on the spectrum" (ASD)?

    1. male 2. always been a bedwetter with a temporary "mostly dry" period from 13 to 21 3. not on the spectrum

    Hmmm: Overnight Diapers can add years to your life?

    I read a study not long ago that goes well with this one. It compared the sleep quality of bedwetters who wore diapers to bed to the sleep quality of bedwetters who did not, and all compared to "dry" controls. The diapered bedwetters had comparable sleep quantity and quality to the "dry"...

    ED and Bedwetting?

    Same here. Lifelong bedwetter, and most of that without ED. ED has been more a recent thing with age and BPH.

    Bedwetting Diapers and Rubber Sheets

    I never really lost the plastic mattress cover. I wet every night until almost 13 and wore cloth diapers and plastic pants. After 13 I was out of diapers as the frequency of my bedwetting went way down--but not gone. I still woke up wet about 3-4 times a year all the way through high school...

    Your Rubber Sheet

    I always had a crinkly vinyl mattress protector on my bed all the way through high school. Once away at college our dorm beds were vinyl almost like those mattresses at a boys summer camp... :) Once out in my own place I had a crinkly mattress protector on the bed again. I am VERY familiar...

    Bedwetting Diapers as a Kid

    I wet the bed nightly until I was almost 13. My brother (2 years younger) wet until he was 14. We both wore cloth pin-on diapers and Gerber plastic pants. I remember laughing about how they labeled the largest size of plastic pants as "Toddler," and here I was a 12 year old wearing "toddler"...

    Are you / were you embarrassed around family?

    I was a bedwetter until almost 13 and wore pretty thick cloth pin-on diapers and plastic pants. Even under PJs it was obvious that I had a diaper on. My brother (2 years younger) was also a nightly diapered bedwetter until he was 14. We shared a bedroom for much of our growing up years, so...

    Who was a diapered bedwetter as a child?

    I wet the bed nightly until I was almost 13. Wore pin-on cloth diapers and pull-over plastic pants, had the plastic mattress cover, etc. My brother, two years younger, also was a diapered bedwetter until he was 14. We were never punished or humiliated or harassed about it. Bedwetting runs...

    The cost of incontinence

    Yeah, I've tried both, and can confirm they are the same diaper just with prints/patterns on the shell. Every place I've looked, though, Crinklz are more expensive than BetterDry for the premium aesthetic :)

    The cost of incontinence

    At first my reaction was "FIVE cases every SIX weeks?!" But then I remembered that Abena L4 cases come in 3 bags of 12. And like you said that is 180 diapers. I am 24/7 too, and I wear pin-on cloth diapers to bed just about every night (unless I'm traveling). I wear BetterDry, which come in...

    Travelling with nappies/diapers?

    I actually had an interesting experience at bag check at WDW that I just remembered! :) Years ago I was in Orlando for a business trip (a conference where I was staffing an expo booth), and it was BORING. And I was going crazy wanting to go to Disney World. So one day I got coverage for the...

    Travelling with nappies/diapers?

    Yes! The last time I was there, I had my bag searched every day that I went to the parks. Apparently it was because I also had a mobile recharging battery in the bag that tripped the scanners. But they took me aside, discretely searched, were very professional, and I never felt uncomfortable...

    Travelling with nappies/diapers?

    Yeah I wondered what I would have done in their place--probably would have taken it to the desk and said I wasn't sure why I got that and maybe it was for someone else? IDK. But it all worked out totally fine. My replacement supplies arrived in time before I ran out of what I had brought with...

    Travelling with nappies/diapers?

    I do the same thing. And sometimes unexpected challenges can still occur. A few years ago we went to Disney World, and I ordered diapers to be delivered to our Disney resort hotel. (Had always been successful before). I got an email that they had been delivered a few days before we were...
