I would think you could easily continue wearing your diaper during the day, especially if you wake up dry. I used to be able to start with a dry diaper at bedtime and keep it on at least until late morning or until I had to get a shower to go somewhere, even though I normally wet a couple times throughout the night. Much depends on the quality of the diaper though...I always use premium diapers that hold up pretty well.
As far as plastic pants, you can pick up good quality plastic pants for a great price if you don't mind some color. Rearz often has sales on plastic pants...as of a few days ago, I know there are some solid performers for less than $6 US a pair. I have a heavy duty pair of Gary plastics that cost a decent amount (I'm thinking they were like $26 bucks) but I almost never wear them. The cheap ones hold up well and are, frankly, more comfortable and perform equally as well, if not better. The drawback is they have prints, which is a deal breaker for some. For me, no one sees them but me (and occasionally my wife) so I really don't care...I'm much more into saving money where possible.
I would also recommend a mattress protector and pads. They have saved my mattress more than a few times over the last couple years.
Good luck! I hope you find a solution that works for you.
Thanks for your help, I have a followup question can i use my night diaper if not wet in the daytime but I apply rash cream every night is it still ok to use the same diaper in this case as well? I look forward to hearing from you Thanks Gabe.
