I've been wondering when these were going to start to show up. I requested several different free samples to try out different diapers and I had my first two arrivals. To be honest, I don't remember where all the different places were I was trying to get some freebies from. But hopefully thses will give me a good idea of fit and help sort out the obvious junk.
In a plain flat mailing envelope, I found a Medium/Regular McKesson Ultra Plus Stretch Briefs in a zip-lock baggie. These are going to be worth trying out since it is one of my limited choices from one of the "local" medical supply stores. I must note that they do look pretty thin but they may be good for more descrete wear and I would hope that they would at least be a step up from the Depend pull ups I've been wearing lately.
The second is the Tena Small/Medium Briefs Trial Kit. I must say that they put a little thought in this package. It came in a nice box--inside the discrete shipping box--and had some nice stuff in there. I got a Ultra Stretch and a Super Stretch Brief in Medium/Regular as well as a Small Brief. I believe that the latter is too small but if I was desperate I may be able to make it work since I keep on hearing how a lot of different diaper fans manage to get into a child-sized diaper. The shorts that I am wearing now are 44's but I have lost a few inches since I have bought them and my weight is now finally going down--I have to wear a belt or they will just fall down to my ankles. I was building muscle and losing fat so my weight was not dropping for a bit. So it's not like I'm tens of inches larger than the diaper is sized for.
The Tena's look just a little thicker than the McKesson but they still seem thin--or is that normal for a lot of diapers nowadays?
I also like the included extras in there. The coupon was an expected touch but I'll have to try out the washcloths and cleansing cream. With the flushable wipes I have been used to using, I have run into sensitivity problems with all but the Walmart Equate brand. But if these won't bother me i may have to buy some more of these. We cannot flush our wipes anyway with our septic system so they could go into the can we have for the regular dirty wipes.
I haven't been in a tabbed diaper since I found those diapers in the attic of the place we were living in when I was a teen. I'm getting close to the end of the second bag of pullups I have bought and have been wearing continuously since I got them. I know I'll get both good and sub-par item with the samples but it's free diapers and I'm exploring all the different kinds I can get my hands on. I'll likely have to spend some money on other samples--the Wellness brand looks interesting and there's a lot of other great premium diapers out there to try. But I'm working my way up.
