The key with the dry 24/7 that I have found is to make sure they are a little higher in the back when you tape them. If you don't get them to come over the top of your hip, then they will sag a little in the seat, and not only be bulky, but also when they get wet the plastic is heavy enough that they are really loud. I am used to diaper that "crinkle" but I have found that a dry 24/7 will "crackle"(produce a much deeper, and to me louder sound). I have found that this is minimized by keeping the diaper taped in such a way that it stays "pulled up", to avoid sagging. The other trick is to use something over them to help with the bulk, either a snap crotch onesie or a pair of boxer briefs. I have worked hard at fining a way to make them work because they are an excellent diaper, and offer that extra protection that a person sometimes needs, I find that for me, the fit around the legs is awesome, and they are right at the top for capacity. Hope this helps.
