5bugles,
When you wear the megamax with shorts/pants, how high up do the diaper waistbands rise. I read in some articles it is a good 4 inches or so. I had an experience with my abenas where I took my daughter to play with her friends at the neighbors house. I was talking to other adults and while my daughter was playing she pulled my shirt up. The waistband and wings of the diaper were sticking up above my shorts. My neighbors looked right at it but didn’t comment. I just pulled my shirt down and carried on like nothing happened. Never heard a word about it. But I know they saw it. Oh well.
I've had some time to come up with a bunch of solutions to the "peeking" issue.
- Fold everything in so there is no stray fabric or plastic showing. It'll look like you're wearing very clean white boxers
- Wear a diaper cover (kinda goes without say, I guess)
- Start wearing onesies; this comes in especially handy during winter when you don't want a cool breeze, anyway
Besides all this, I have acquired a tactical muffin top, so I don't get a lot of peeking above my hips, but I do use pretty stiff belts for any pants or shorts I wear.
