Tarlton,
Speaking of the noise created by confidry, they gave me away on more than one occasion. Due to my neuropathy, I don’t sweat. This takes my body’s ability to naturally cool itself away. It makes the risk of heat stroke or exhaustion a very real threat in the Florida summer heat. So in the warmer months, I wear light, dry fit fabrics. Anything I can do to keep cool. I used to wear confidry before switching to Abena. The confidry always were so loud. It sounded like I was wearing a plastic bag. My health condition is not common. Some people may say wear heavier clothing. But I can’t, my body could literally overheat. So I have to do whatever is necessary to keep cool. Sometimes, with the lighter clothing, you can hear my diaper in quiet places. There isn’t much I can do about it. It is what it is. I have accepted it. A couple times, people have commented. But nobody has been negative. I’ve only received sympathy.
You might already do this but wearing something tight like compression shorts over the diaper really helps limit the noise without having to really wear bulkier clothes.
