Normally I wear BetterDry as my main diaper with one breathable diaper per day for skin health, often Megamax Airlock. I fill the gap between major diaper changes with a pull-up, usually from NorthShore Care.

As BetterDry was going to be unavailable for a period of some weeks due to a change in warehouses I stocked up on BetterDry. Then as I heard that the diapers might not be available for six or more weeks I decided to buy another case. Oh oh, sold out in my size (Large). Fortunately, I immediately found a source for Crinklz in my size as I knew that Crinklz was the printed version of BetterDry. I will add that I am not AB/DL but will use a printed diaper when based on necessity as no one will see it except for my wife. Anyway, I bought a case of Crinklz.

Today both BetterDry and its printed Crinklz version are sold out in almost all sizes. I am reading cries of dismay from many who did not anticipate the shortage. I am crossing my fingers and hoping that my supply lasts until the diapers become available again as I have found them to be a good value and have very high internal standing leak guards that I need for my bowel incontinence.

I have had BetterDry delivered monthly via auto refill. As I use a few less diapers per month than are delivered, over time I have built up a good reserve that is allowing me to ride out this storm (BetterDry shortage) without worry. However, I will be glad when production / supply resumes.

Hey John! Question about Better Dry. Have you had any issues with the tabs being folded over on one side during the manufacturing process? The last time I had a case of Better Dry, half the case or more had the issue. I ended up returning 2 of the bags. The way the tabs were folded over made it so they wouldn't stick and the diaper was pretty much useless. Also, do you find the topsheet is kinda rough on your skin? To me, it kinda feels like sandpaper. By contrast, the topsheet on MegaMax Lite feels like I'm wearing a feather or cloud. Perhaps I've been too hasty.. Better Dry was my go to diaper for many years.
