Finally managed to register here and was looking for what other people's thoughts were on adult diapers they have been using...I tried Depends but it just wasn't enough and caused me too many problems so I went with something a little higher end...I bought the Secure X-Plus adult diapers from I believe Secure Personal Care and they have been working fantastically for me. Any thoughts on others or people's thoughts on Secure X-Plus's...has anyone tried their other adult diapers the Secure Plus I believe and there is another one too.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
If you don't know the diaper I am referring to its from this site: www.securepersonalcare.com (urologist recommended them to me)

I have toys. So the ones I have not used or need any more, are gone in the trash. One of my toys is just a regular hand held massager with an attachment. The other is a real insertable toy. This morning I ordered a new toy with attachments. It is small and has a brush like attachment and the other looks like a rose with a tiny tongue. I'll get it in about 2 weeks. Rechargable and...

Abena M4 are the best diapers and they fit perfect. Im just wonderi g if i shod spend the money and get a snap croth diaper shirt to help.
My first ones I ordered which was in desperation and I didn't give much thought to were Tena's although I don't remember the style. They were cloth backed and and not too comfy or reliable.
I used a sample service to try various brands and styles and found Attends Slip Regular Plus to be the best for me. They're plastic backed and as comfortable as a nappy can be. My night wetting is moderate to heavy so I tend to add a booster pad for extra security. It adds some bulk between my legs but has proven to be very reliable and I rarely suffer any leaks. It helps me enjoy waking in a dry bed, and try to not worry about the wet nappy.
I'm glad you found something in which you feel comfortable and safe.

I order from XPMedical.com .$59.95 for a 42 count case of my Abena and free shipping
The pad is held in place by unisex net fixation knickers. They are similar to women's full-sided net briefs with no gusset. Because the legs tend to be tight, I buy a large size. I rarely pass urine through my urethra. I have faecal leakage only occasionally, most usually immediately after a bowel evacuation which has not fully emptied my bowel.
A small problem is that although he is not very big - about 6 inches when taking his morning stretch - whenever I get an erection, my penis pops out beyond my pad and knickers and beyond my suprapubic catheter site. Most mornings I wake up with him there. Fortunately, I rarely pass urine through my urethra but I am concerned that my catheter site might become contaminated.
I wonder whether others have a similar problem and whether the same happens when wearing diapers. Perhaps longer pads are available?
When I know that he drank a lot before going to bed I place a soaker pad across his navel and also a booster pad between his legs.
I hope this helps you.
With very best wishes to you and your stepbrother, Barry.
My stepbrother is a sidesleeper too. So when he drank a lot during day I put a soaker pad between his legs, one soaker pad across his navel area and half of a soaker pad either side of his hip. On the top plastic pants. He is used to it and can still sleep easily but it takes some time to get used to it.
