gonna tap the brain trust here. I've been incontinent for over a year now but only having to wear 24/7 for a few months. I've been in diapers at night for a while but with my symptoms getting worse and worse I had to man up and accept my need for 24/7 diapers. It's been a very difficult decision with ups and downs, trial and error, embarrassment and acceptance and back and forth. But I come to you today not for emotional support in this but practical advice for my daytime wear.
I'm not super fat but I have a bit of a gut. I'm working on it and slowly losing weight. But this gut often causes the top front of the diaper to fold over outward which can expose the padding and cause leaks. It happens at night once in a while but I sleep on chux to no biggie. IT rarely causes a leak at night and when it does the chux catches it. But during the day, I can't afford embarrassing leaks. I've had a few instances where some leakage occurred and I was able to get to the bathroom and change before it became a huge problem.
Do you guys know of any solution for this? I've heard people say to fold the top over on the inside but that doesn't work. IT just unfolds over time, fairly quickly.
I wear Abena L4 or Dry 24/7 to bed and Nortshore supreme lites in the day. I don't have this problem too bad with Dry 24/7 due to the front waistband, but I have fit issues with them and they are the leakiest diaper in my rotation. They're also too much diaper for my daytime needs. The Northshore lites offer the PERFECT level of protection for my needs and are very quite under clothes despite being plastic. I just wish they'd make a rigid waistband on them as I think that would stop the fold over.
Anyone got any ideas? I'd prefer not to switch brands. I've tried many many brands and these 3 brands work best for me. I'm NOT ABDL and do not want any printed diapers or anything so thick you waddle. I wear to work in a professional office setting.
