Going away this weekend to NY to visit some friends. We're staying at their house Friday to Sunday.

This will be my first time staying at someone's house for a few days since being in diapers 24/7. I've stayed in hotels and just leave a trashbag with wet diapers for housekeeping. I think I'm going to pack in/pack out on this one though. These are very close friends of my wife and while I'm sure they'd understand I certainly do not want to tell them.

At night I'll go Abena L4 with Abri Let Maxi booster and disposable chux under me. More than I need at home but I'm going overkill here. I don't want to stain their sheets/mattress.

During the day I'll wear my usual northshore supreme lites. Most of our time will be spent at the house other than us guys in the group heading to a cigar lounge for a few hours Saturday. I think I'll bring some ziplock gallon bags, double bag my wet diapers and pack them back into suit case. My wife knows I'm a bit uneasy about this and this was her suggestion.

Any thoughts?

This reads as though you're competent. You're reassurance for the rest of us. Good luck, and report back when you get home.

Mike,

You are very experienced with incontinence. What I do is very similar to what you have said. When I am at someone's house I usually plan to pack out my used diapers, if possible, and bring enough disposal bags to double-bag the diapers. Otherwise I will double-bag the diapers and put them in their trash bin myself so that my hosts are not bothered. In this case I put the diapers in an opaque plastic bag so that the contents will not show.

Like you, I also take a disposable absorbent pad to change on if necessary and others to ensure that the bed is protected.
