Post subject:  kind of an awkward situation
so as you all know, I'll be having major surgery on my leg next Monday.
I usually keep my diapers in the box they came in in my living room. they aren't visible, just hidden in the box and it looks like I'm messy. ;)

well I'll need to have diapers out and available for me to have access to. I'll need to have them by my bedside and by the couch for easy changing. people will be coming over to help out with cooking, taking care of my cat, and stuff like that. I don't want to announce to the world that I'm incontinent, but I don't know if I can avoid having diapers out in plain view.

what can I do?

How about keep them in a box by your bedside and instead of having them on display put a blanket or cover over them. Or you could put the diapers in a sturdy box and then put a tablecloth on it as it then serves two purposes as storage for diapers and as a extra table for a drink/snacks/tv remote etc. Just a thought hope it helps in some way :)

Ways to discreetly store diapers... You can stick them in drawers, buckets, boxes or bags such as gym and work bags.

It's always a good idea to carry a couple of spare diapers in a backpack, small bag, or briefcase. I keep mine in my car since I'm always near enough to it anyways. You can do the same thing for at your bed and couch too and nobody will be the wiser (though they may think you're a messy person).

i always carry mine in a backpack so maybe ill put enough for a days worth in it each day.
ill be using bed pads though so that will be pretty obvious

Glad I can help, it's all about thinking outside the box! Or in this case inside the box ;)
