Try to avoid the stretch CVS brand diapers. I bought a pack, and 5 in a row they just fell apart on me. The outside shell just fell off! Chucked the rest of the pack.
If you can, try to get something from Amazon and pick it up at a locker. ATNs are pretty inexpensive.
Before I could get premium diapers I used the drugstore house brand with the stretch sides. I used Walgreens but I believe the house brand at all of the chains are similar.
i used a baby diaper as a liner. You need to make perforations to use a baby diaper as a liner.
They would leak if you wet too much overnight but as long as you control the wetting they worked. They give you the feeling of wearing a diaper and with the liner you get a bit of the bulk you would expect from a diaper.
You do need to be careful when you stretch them as noted previously as the wing can detach.
I think that sounds like a good plan. Do you know whether the actual diapers are more absorbent than say, the pull-ups, or “adjustable briefs”? Thank you
To me the diapers seemed to be more absorbent. I’m guessing because they are designed for full wettings whereas IMO the pull-ups and briefs seem to be more about handling leaks. Besides I don’t get the babyish feeling of being in diapers in the pull-ups or briefs.
