Diaper (nappy) ballooning effect

Fri Mar 15, 2019 8:56 am

okay so may sound a bit strange but does anyone else experience their disposable diaper (nappy) balloon a bit at the front when they sit down.

when i used to wear plastic pants oh my the same thing happened and i had to squash the front down to get the air out.

i wonder if this just happens with plastic backing disposables as i think it strange that it would also happen with plastic pants over cloth.

also have been trying out tena active slip disposables with pe backing and at last have found a disposable which doesn't drop down on me and have been out and about with no problems from drooping the down side is that i cannot get them for free over in my area.

i have also been looking at the I.D slip this seems to have a bit of both pe backing but with breathable sides so may have a look in to trying some.

Plastic backing diapers do in my experience not balloon.
When it comes to plastic/PUL pants, you can try snap on pants

FYI on what Optimist said above... Leakmaster makes an excellent snap-on PUL pant. I suspect they are made by Gary as they seem identical in construction and feel. The only difference I've found is that they are a bit more generously cut which can be a big plus.

it could be possible that i am putting the disposable diaper on in such a tight fit that when i sit down what air is in there is then causing the ballooning effect, it isn't too bad as i just push the front of the diaper down to get the air out.

i have just purchased some side snaps so that takes care of that business.
