I need a diaper that feels dry when wet. The wetness wakes me. I have tried attends and prevail extended wear briefs. And tranquility Atn. They're the best the local shop has to offer. Im overwhelmed with all the choices on line.

Thanks for the suggestion. The abena are working. Im going to stay with them. The absorbency plus have a slow acquisition rate. Slower than the confidry even. I believe that is why they leaked. My husband said he sometimes can hear me going and it coming out fast it sounds like.

Here's a newer Tranquility product. We use Tranquility. Because its a good product and our insurance covers them. These are great for overnight needs, And even better with a booster pad. I have also used the ATN and regular briefs for years now. https://tranquilityproducts.com/product/tranquility-smartcore-brief-xl/

How are you going with the search for the right diaper?
I've made good experiences with Crinklz even they look different with their prints. But under your cloths it doesn't really matter if they are plain with prints. The comfort they give counts.
Hope that helped.

I prefer Tranquility ATN as they turn the moisture into a gel so the padding doesn't feel "wet". The ATNs are thin and comfortable when dry, and swell when wet. They also make a booster which does the same thing. The only problem I have experienced is the tapes are not sticky enough to last the night (my wife says I turn a lot in my sleep), so I just wear a pair of underwear over them and all is well. I think this also depends on your level of fluid output.
