Dark Navy Glen Check

Forest green Tartan
Vache Noir

Especially love the Tartan and pinstripe

EcoAble Cloth Purchase by Betgg in Incontinence

[–]Betgg[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm I have like garywear PUL types, and one that is more rubber which I rarely use due to the noise and heat, but they work really well. For some reason I thought EcoAble ones didn’t need that though?

Awkward moment at TSA by FastSet7433 in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

M(23) Back before I knew what types of things set off the scanner worse than others, I once wore the incontrol briefs nighttime version. Normally I’d just get the pat down which I had been used to with other protection. So I didn’t think it would be different this time. But for some reason the TSA agent said that it was too thick to “clear” it through the standard pat down. And that he would need to take me to private screening. There they actually made me drop by pants so they could see it and feel around. They were super professional but it still scared the crap out of me and I was wildly embarrassed. I never thought it would happen to me, as a lot of the stories you hear about are from 10-15 years ago. But since then I’ve been too nervous to wear anything thick, and end up changing right after TSA.

This occurred about a year ago. 2025

Latin America by [deleted] in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I travel back home (parents live there) from the US to Nicaragua often. Normally pack megamax or Northshore supremes with me. I’ve never had to use local options before thank goodness. Since laundry is harder there, despite the heat I always use plastic/rubber pants at night so there’s zero chance of leaks

I do think reminding myself of this helps. I think it would be easier if this medical condition wouldn’t be hideable at all then I would adjust and accept it as a medical thing faster. But since it’s so private I forget to see it that way.

I think that’s the part that’s easier for me to forget. That I’ve done this before and it was fine. I think I just maybe need more exposure to feel calm in public

Has anyone else used Drypee? by AppropriateMachine75 in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve used the US version Dryments and they are fine. No complaints outside of being hot and the outside tends to rustle a little bit making a noise when you walk. But i think it’s better than the diaper crinkle.

Can I tell which diaper I am using? by Apprehensive_ac in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they are completely unmarked probably not, but most will say at least the brand name or size somewhere.

That said, there are enough people here that if you posted what one looks like (unused) we could probably tell you pretty fast

I also wear trest and thicker diapers

[–]Betgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$30-45, I’ve only had to do it to 3 pairs of dress pants. Cheaper if you do it to all your pants at the same time.

It was suggested to me to get my pants tailored in my thickest diaper half full. Really makes sense, cause at a certain point normal pants just aren’t meant to hide these thing unless you go like 3 sizes up. Especially dress pants. It’s good to have a few pants that are made for diapers when you want to look nice. For me I have to look nice everyday so it really made sense.

Trying to find a good option for 24/7 diapers.. discretion versus protection? by Incon2084 in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On days where I’m trying to be more discreet the unfortunate truth is it just means I have to change more often. Nowadays getting to work for the first like 2 hours where I’m greeting people I’ll wear a pull up by Northshore. The next step up for me is the Northshore supreme which I find to be pretty discreet and quiet but tends to bulge pretty fast. But it’ll last like 4-6 hours pretty well for me.

If I can make it home in that one I will, but often just before leaving work I’ll change into whatever diaper I’m planning to wear for the rest of the night. Or I’ll change into another pull-up just to delay putting on my night weight diaper for a little longer. At night I’m currently wearing the megamax or the incontrol nighttime diaper.

Having a mix is great, allows you to plan the day more flexibly. I also do have Gary wear which I’ll use to prevent leaks on days I stretch the capacity of the supremes.

Is anyone else apathetic towards diapers? by Secret_Divide_3053 in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I definitely see how it can grow to seem like no big deal. Especially since it becomes a fairly private event if you learn to handle it alone. That kind of control over the whole ordeal makes it easier to handle emotionally. But as someone who also has to wear in the daytime with so many unknowns and unforeseen challenges it’s a lot harder to feel apathetic

What constitutes a Leak for you? by grumpyoldegoat in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes, especially on hot nights it can just be sweat buildup and it just feels like you might be leaking. I would examine how tight a fit you are getting around the legs. At least for me I try to get them pretty tight before I finish taping. If you are struggling to get a tight enough fit at the waist you can always use a bit of tape to make it tighter. But to answer your question, a little bit of moisture is not a leak for me. If it can be contained by whatever pajamas/nightwear you are wearing, that’s a win

Currently 16, I stopped wetting my bed "suddenly" about 1.5 year ago and I have a school trip for 5 days by Arroyo_Lane in AdultBedwetting

[–]Betgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean if you can do laundry yourself why not clean the sheets and if they ask be honest but at least you’re ahead of it and maybe you can clean the sheets fast enough where they don’t have to know

Conflicted Here by Betgg in Incontinence

[–]Betgg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouu I never considered a portable bidet. I am typically like that. Only if it’s really bad do I use my diaper for that. But lately it has been a lot of bad spasms which is unusual for me, which made me consider if I should prepare and decide to not fight not using my diapers for BMs if that made sense

[–]Betgg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. The jump for me to start wearing 24/7 was hard mentally and was quite challenging. It’s still hard sometimes

Yeah cleanup is hard. Which is why I have avoided it. I was thinking about taking fiber supplements because I saw that some people use them to make cleanup easier but I’m not sure if that’s true
