I happen to know that Wetters is a very good writer, and I'd totally buy that book. I'm guessing there's a lot I don't know about diapers, and I'm definitely a dummy.

Schoppy

Thanks for your kind words, RMS!

Wetters

No slight to the primer intended, Schoppy. There's a lot of information in there, and I've read about half of it--the half that most directly applies to me, of course. From what I've seen, it's well written and very comprehensive. If you did it, well done. If it was someone else, kudos.

Have I missed something here? I thought we were doing lighthearted humor.

Wetters

It's ok Wetters. The conversation has shifted multiple times and I'm not sure we used the clutch!

how about the over-engineered, super-diaper!

(that some of us end up needing, especially at night)

John.

i have alway hade leaks with disposable no matter what brand being used
i use a kins 2 layer pull on with a gauze diaper from changing times diaper co and high back pants made buy garys i can drink a 6 pack and not worry they are comfortable and last all night long one trick make the pants loose one size larger for night

When it comes to rated capacity, all diapers are tested with distilled, or filtered water. You are not going to get the same absorbancy with real usage. The salt, and other minerals that is in urine severely diminishes the ability of the polymer crystals to absorb. I am just guessing, but I would estimate that there is a 75% reduction in absobency.

I think all diaper tests are flawed anyway. Most of the time they use a cylindrical glass beaker with liquid in it and a plug at the bottom. They wrap the diaper around it and pull the plug. So the liquid flows straight down into the diaper. So, the liquid does not flow the way it would flow out of the body, doesn't have the same compounds to it, doesn't have the same temperature to it, et cetera. There are many reasons why I don't think they are accurate.
