Nice website. It's nice to know that I'm not alone in having this kind of problem. I've heard over the years that it's shameful or a felony to have a wetting accident in your pants or even in bed. I'm a 32 yr old male and I've been having wetting accidents on and off all my life. Until I first saw this website, I thought I was the only person in the world who wet his pants. I haven't had many pooping accidents, so the problem isn't fecal incontinence although that can be just as embarrassing . I've worn just about every kind of adult protection available, mostly disposable diapers and undergarments. I'm not as embarrassed by using the word "diaper" as I am about incontinence. I just wish i knew what the best diapers to use. I have no qualms about using diapers. One of the problem is that the ones I use leak. I normally wear dark coloured pants, so hiding the accident isn't a problem. The problem is finding a diaper that doesn't leak. Another problem is that the tapes on most disposable diapers don't stay put when i move about. I find that intolerable. I like being able to adjust the fit on my diapers, but I DON'T like having the tapes come undone . If I remember correctly, baby diapers usually have good adhesive tapes that stick to the diapers and ONLY come undone when Mom or Dad need to change baby's diaper. Why shouldn't adult diapers be any different? Nice website. Keep it up.

and went on to say the diapers you use, leak, which of course is the pits.

I have to ask the obvious question, so please forgive me, have you tried the European diapers? Molicare, Abena? If not, please go to XP Medical's page, using the connection on our "links" page.

The owner there, Gary Evans, has done a superb job of testing diapers and presenting the test results in a very understandable fashion. We have the same information on this site, thru his generosity in sharing the data.

I'd like to suggest you take a look at our Primer on the homepage. No need to read the whole thing, it's quite long, just chapters that will address your questions about the "best" diapers in some depth.

A quick reply for "good" cloth diapers: Anglefluff and Adult Cloth Diapers. Both are on our links page.

For a good deal right now, go to Yahoo Groups and join Adult Incon. That will only take a day or two, we are pretty easy to join. Go to a message near the end (newest end) and see Michaels "Want to try cloth diapers".

I currently use Priva prefolded cloth diapers from HDIS. The last time I bouht them they were $79.20 / half dozen shipped. You can buy them one at a time. They are not listed on their website or catalog but they are in stock.

I find them to work very good. I get very good life out of them also. I wear cloth almost exclusively24/7. I would say I average 10 years from a diaper. I have 6 dozen that I rotae through so that helps with their life expectancey.

Hey Terry,
Welcome to this forum. It's nice to see some activity on this board finally. I buy all my disposables from HDIS. They are good to work with. I wish I could use cloth diapers 24/7 but it's tough to deal with wet diapers and changing at work. If I had my own private bathroom, I would try it. But I do use cloth diapers at home. It's hard to beat their effectiveness in collecting your wettings. I've seen the Privia brands on their site. I've been reluctant in trying them. I'm sold on good ole cloth diapers with a pair of plastic pants. I have used the pull-up diapers by Gary and flat guauze type. The flat guauze type will last many years. I rotate about 4 of them. I use baby cloth diapers as a booster in them. They're really cheap and last a long time too.
Again, thanks for posting your comment!....Paul

Hi guys I am still looking for a good diaper for night ware everything I've used has leaked so don't know if cloth is the only answer I wish you could buy 1or2 to try them without costing a leg or arm.
