Bambinod, I do often wear a dress or skirt just to make it easier. I wish I could give up the potty, but it's not that easy lol I don't qualify for disability here in the US and diapers are too expensive to keep going through several a day on my own dime
Easy, don't. When you double diaper you're taking two diapers and doubling their price while also hoping you will double their capabilities and resistance to leaking. In reality, you are not greatly increasing their capabilities or resistance to leaking, only slightly increasing their capacity while ultimately still having to deal with a mess and leaks. Instead, take that double cost of your cheap diaper and find a one which costs about that same price. You will be getting a much better diaper, with (roughly) double everything you're looking to get.
Realistically though, you've got to stop looking at the cost of each diaper. Instead, look at their total cost per day. Quite often, if you go with a cheaper diaper you will be changing much more often. Go with a more expensive diaper and they will last and perform much longer. This will translate to a lower cost overall, while also getting a better functioning diaper what doesn't need to be doubled up.
