Well laides and gents,

My morning deluges are back. YAYYY (NOT!) This is the one type of episode that singlehandely has the potential to overwhelm a diaper if its not absorbent enough. Somehow mostly the tranquility diapers have been ok.. but i can tell they are stetched to the breaking point. Cant wait to get my hands on my Confidrys..notice how i refer tro tranquilty as the and confidry as my? Yeah that should tell you how i feel about tranquility.. iffy at best.

Does this happen to anyone else? How do you deal with it emotionally and physically?

Peace out!

Rob

Hi Rob
Happens to me as well most mornings as soon as I start to wake up my bladder releases with no chance of making it to the bathroom I wear Betterdry diapers now as they seam to absorb faster then the confidrys and leak less often (I am a side sleepers).

I try not to stress about it, as I can not change how my bladder reacts I am just glad my diaper manages the issue and our bed stays dry (most times)

betterdry is my new goto nighttime brief. only need one booster with those.
when I get off work at 2am I am usually severely dehydrated no matter how much i seem to drink at work.
so down goes a gallon of water over the next several hours before bed at 7am. needless to say I am
really putting the briefs to some hard use while sleeping. the only part the prevents disaster is I tend
to sleep in every possible position while sleeping. spend an hour on my stomach then roll over then spend maybe an hour on a side.
at least nothing gets wasted that way. the sleep study I had years ago was getting annoyed with me tying the leads in knots I moved around so much

Definitely going to try the BetterDry diapers! And yeah, I felt that way about some of the crap the VA used to shove at me with regards to diaper protection. Makes sense to me @SociologyGeek.
