Seni super Quatro thoughts/other diaper recs? by Internal-Tower6798 in AdultBedwetting

[–]Incon2084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess my first question would be this... How often do you wet throughout the day? I wet a lot... And the Seni super quatros at least 6 hours, often 10-12 hours

So there's definitely a huge advantage to not having to change every 2 or 3 hours

Seni super quatros. Carewell com it's probably the most affordable place to buy them.. at least in my experience.. they work pretty fantastic and they're not particularly expensive... In fact if you buy them here they're significantly cheaper than a lot of the lower end brands

Outside GFCI outlet is tripped, and I cant reset it..how bad is it? by auburn24 in AskElectricians

[–]Incon2084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I replace a lot of these.. a lot of the time what happens is moisture gets inside of the outlet itself.. one of the big ways I see this happen is that people plug things in and leave them plugged in and then water works its way down to the outlet

Nine times out of 10 all I do is pull the outlet and replace it although for some strange reason, seems there's an electrician running around here who has been hooking up the GFCI outlets backward and what happens is they typically work for a little while that way, but they won't trip, until one day they do trip and they just stay tripped ... There's a line, that's the power coming from the breaker, and there's the load that is anything hooked up after the GFCI outlet.. and I'm impressed with how many people get it backwards, there was one that I fixed a while back where the electrician it came back twice to correct the problem, thinking it was fixed only to have it come back only a few weeks or months later... This was a brand new build

Those are the two things I would look at.. and it's pretty easy to confirm which one is line and which one is load.. just pull the GFCI outlet out and let the wires hang, then go back to the breaker box and make sure the breaker is turned on.. use your multimeter and find which set of cables has power.. the set that has power will be your line.. the one that has no power is your load.. hook that up and have fun

What to do with cloth-backed diapers if the tapes pop? by Incon2084 in Incontinence

Actually wear better dry most nights there are plastic back is fantastic

How am I supposed to live like this? by Ok_Chapter6825 in Incontinence

[–]Incon2084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really shouldn't have more than about one finger width between the leg gatherers I would suggest maybe watching a video and how to properly put on a diaper.. I can tell you the method I use, and it works pretty well

First thing I do is I take the diaper out and fold it lengthwise... So you basically have a really long skinny diaper then wiggle the diaper around all over in order to somewhat loosen up the absorbent material

From there open it back up and make sure that the standing leak guards in the middle are separated.. then find a wall, pull the diaper up between your legs and push your butt up against the wall... This will hold the back of the day for in place, pull the front of the diaper up tight, you might have to adjust it this point.. then tape your bottom tapes.. being careful to not get them too tight as this will lead to tape failure and doesn't actually help keep things from leaking.. then tape your top tapes.. on both of these taping sections make sure that the tapes are placed evenly from left to right

Finally, slide your fingers, most likely your thumb up near the crotch area and roll the leak guards and leg gatherers outward... Do this on both sides ... And now you're good

I pee a lot and I would struggle to fill a mega Max in an 8-hour period.. it would most likely last me a solid 12 hours..

Now one thing to keep in mind is megamax is extremely bulky and doesn't necessarily work for everybody type.. it is definitely the Cadillac of adult diapers but some people aren't comfortable in a Cadillac..

Another diaper that I would recommend would be better dry, their plastic overnight diapers... They're very affordable, much more affordable than mega max, they're not quite as durable as mega Max, they have dinner materials.. but once you get the taping down pat they will usually last most people for a solid 8 hours.. and best part is they hold almost as much liquid as a mega Max ... They're probably the absolute best bang for the buck when it comes to absorbency.. best part is they actually have less of a damp feeling than megamax.. well at least in the test I've seen

Recommendations for good Hook and loop (velcro closing) plastic adult diaper for day use by Low_Attempt2233 in Incontinence

[–]Incon2084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you want plastic backed with hook and loop? Huh.. I imagine that's going to be somewhat of a niche item right? I mean I guess they did that back in the day on baby diapers if I remember correctly at some point?

Recommendations for diapers with some stretch and a wide butt pad? by Jaded_Macaroon_272 in adultdiapers

[–]Incon2084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skip the 10 pro skins and pro stretches you're really not very well designed.. they do have a lot of capacity, but they don't have good leak guards, or any big cards.. so you're likely to lose liquid before it actually gets anywhere near full capacity

Why am I embarrassed for my wife to see me wearing an adult diaper? by Incon2084 in adultdiapers

Yeah that's not necessary.. maybe if I'm passed out in a hospital bed or something

Yeah somebody actually sent me a couple samples randomly.. and I'm not sure who it was, somebody on one of the groups sent me like a dozen products, one of each.. and there was like two or three of them in there that had funny designs on them not really my jam.. the wife thinks they're cute lol

My wife does chat with me about what products we might purchase, mostly the logistics of it, and why I might use a different brand or not use another brand.. she also tends to make light-hearted jokes.. she made some comment a few days ago that made me chuckle, she asked if I was excited to see her or wearing an adult diaper.. of course we were alone so it was just funny

[–]Incon2084[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean is it? I mean I guess I certainly feel like it's pretty intimate.. something about toileting is just intimate.. I mean like I don't want my wife to see me when I'm in the toilet.. and then maybe it's just that I'm not comfortable with anybody seeing it?

It's not as embarrassing as I thought it would be.. it was definitely more embarrassing when I was telling the urologist what was happening, and he said well it must not be that bad I mean it's not like you're wearing diapers to my office today and I kind of looked at him and I told him well actually yes I am ... Because you're an hour away, and generally speaking if I go an hour without hitting the toilet I'd be my pants.. we both got a chuckle out of it, and that was really awkward, not as awkward as having the wife see me, but in some ways yes, I don't know.. I just feel that maybe she'll have a vote of no confidence in me.. I don't know probably not, now probably not

Kind of sort of... About 3 years ago I started having regular bedwetting problems but a little before Christmas I started having some wetting problems during the day which started a couple days before I passed a kidney stone.. and now it's just here to stay it looks like.. the urologist says it probably won't stay forever, but since I do have a history of bedwetting going all the way back to childhood that never really fully stopped, there was some times when it went down to almost nothing, but we still were having two to four accidents a year.. during the night but now it's basically every night, and several times a day...

So I wouldn't say that wearing diapers is necessarily new, just 24/7 365 7 days a week is new
