Post subject: | First case of extended wear diapers |
Hey all, Up until now, i have always bought extended wear/premium diapers by the bag always buying a max of two bags at a time. Tonight however, all that has changed. I ordered my first case of extended wear. I ordered a case of Abena X-Plus. I have carefully weighed options over the last month or two, and more and more, it seems abena is my go-to diaper. They have leak guards, ample absobency, yet they have a decent acquisition rate in case i have a fast flood. Confi dry absorbs a lot yes, and so does absorbency plus..but they have poor acqusition rates. It would take longer for the diaper to absorb the urine and make the skin feel dry. I got kind of turned off with absorbency plus when i notcied they had leaked on me slightly. Yes, that can happen with any diaper wit the leg bands not having a good seal, but I am quite pleased with Abena's quality when it comes to tapes. They have a much better track record than either A+ or Confidry. So, for now, my primary extended diaper is Abena X-Plus. The funny thing is, even though i origionally meant them for extended wear situations, I seem to be entering a heavier phase with my incontiennce, and it seems easire to just strap on an X-plus at home and use it rather than stress out over making it to the toilet. Which is why i went ahead and bought a case. Another good thing is Abena has the cheapest case price of all the diapers on the site. That really helps a lot... Peace out! Rob |

Rob, Good choice - and, if they work well for you, perhaps your best choice. --John |

If you feel that an longer wear diaper is the way to go, then Abena is the best bet for sure. Not my main item for day to day, but I have some for the days I want to avoid getting caught short, giving me the freedom to forget about the stresses of mid day changes, but is is rare I use them but appreciate they are an option. I see that AgeComfort has them on sale if you buy 3 cases at $53.99 a case, a bit hit but if you use them primarily, a good deal! http://agecomfort.com/products/abena-abri-form-original-briefs-x-plus-medium-case-adult-diaper.html ![]() |

Try amazon. Usually just over $50 a case, with free shipping, and no quantity requirement. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/B005AWO6 ... dition=new And if you order so that it's fulfilled by Northshore, you'll likely get samples of their house brand briefs and/or wipes included. |
