Hey all,
I just got into an argument with my parents over the necessity of bodystockings or onesies. I found a golf shirt onesie that would be perfect. Mom and dad don't think it is a neccesity, that an undershirt would do the same thing as a onesie does in keeping the diaper up and snug. How can i make them understand? Ok, for the disposable diapers the onesies I have do just fine, other than the fact they are wearing out. But for the pocket diapers, i need onesies with a roomier crotch to avoid compression leaks. Would regular brief underwear combined with an undershirt stay tucked and give the same support as a onesie? Thanks in advance.

Peace out!

Rob

Hi Rob

a onesie also stays place when you bend or strech and won't ride up and sit on the top of the diaper :)

I have not found any one here in canada that sells the golf shirt onesies I have only found the ones that look like tshirts at my medical supplier.

a longer tshirt may work

Best of luck with your folks, stinks that you have to rely on others but soon enough you'll be more independent and this will all be a distant memory! :)

hi rob,

i had to ask my parents for help getting plastic pants recently. i had to explain that the diapers i get from medicaid arent very good and that plastic pants were needed. it took a bit of convincing but when i explained i had leaks and this would be a one time purchase vs monthly orders of premium diapers and not getting assistance from medicaid, they agreed. they were the ones helping me out with my diapers before i got medicaid to approve them.

i hope you have luck getting some onesies. i know i need more but ill be the one footing the bill for those.

also i have a question. how do you wear a polo style? just make it look like you have your shirt tucked in your pants?

Yes they do look like an ordinary tucked in shirt.
