leaking out the side

[justej]

so i havent been using a booster with my atns today (im just bumming around the house). ive noticed im leaking on the right side of my diaper. i put a booster in hoping that would help, but does anyone have any tips? its always on the right side and my compression/pul pants catch the leak but id like to not have that happen.

Do you tuck yourself down ... and do you naturally hang to the right.

im transgendered and have female anatomy.

Got ya. I always think of side leaning as a male problem.

It must be something about your taping technique? Do you do one whole side, then the other, or top tapes then bottom, or what?

[justej]

usually tape right side, then left.

[MSUSpartan]

Try doing top, then bottom (or bottom, then top). I find I get a more symmetrical fit than if I do a full side first.

[justej]

thanks spartan. ill try that.
probably do bottoms first because i dont think ill get a good fit doing tops.

[MSUSpartan]

I do the top first, but I know exactly where I want the front waist band to go, and then I pull the back up until it's snug, and fasten the top tapes. Then I pull the bottom tapes in to make them right around the legs.

It works for me, but do what works for you.

It seems like different diapers have different cuts, at least with my body. Depending on the brand, I sometimes do the bottom first, then the top or the tops then the bottoms.

i mean the pul pants are keeping my shorts dry so thats good. but i shouldnt be having leaks every time.
