I tried something new over the weekend and I was wanting to get opinions from others out there who may have tried these as well. I was at Wal-Mart looking at diapers and I noticed GoodNites, which of course are not meant for adults but instead Kids. Anyways, I picked up the largest size that they had because I had heard others talking about using kids diapers at time, especially at night. They were size L/XL Mega and they were the Underpants styles not the new ones that look like boxers. I just wore them to bed because they were still a little tight on me. Guess I have been eating a little too much pizza the past few weeks when getting home from work 🙂 Anyways, I tried them and though I didn’t use them very much they still felt very nice to sleep in! I was wondering if anyone else has tried these or any other kinds that worked for them? I am not particularly big so I figured I could fit in most of the larger sizes of the diapers made normally for kids, I just had never tried them before.
Hopefully you all can shed some insight into this for me 🙂.
yea stacey i have tried the goodnights. they were a little tight on me too. but ifound the pampers 7 cruisers to fit me really nice
Hi Stacey, First of all, this afternoon I joined IMABDL and thank you so much for telling me about it.
My extended family has been using GoodNites since they were test marketed in 1996. Since before my Granny the women decended from her either never have control or lose it at puberty. This includes all my sisters and our daughters. Since I am only 5’3″, with 29″ hips and weigh 105lbs, from the launch of GoodNites the larger size would fit me. Frankly in bed they leak more than if you wore no diaper. That is what they are advertised for. However, for slender people with mild day problems GoodNites work fine. My favorite niece reached puberty in 2002 and then was 5’8″ and 117lbs, so she never has tried GoodNites. My daughter reached puberty in 2005 when she was 5’0″ and 94lbs with 24″ hips. Today is almost 15, 5’1″ 96lbs and 26″hips. She cannot fit in Size 7, but keeps a bag of GoodNites in case she is having day problems. For bed she prefers pinned gauze diapers which she does all by herself, with Attends Youth briefs for when she is sick or traveling.
Years of study suggests to me the GoodNites bed leaking is a function of their clothlike outer layer clinging to bedding, causing temporary gaps.
The best news for parents is that KCC advertises GoodNites on TV, so kids who do start wetting are familiar with them. So, parents and the kid buy GN. They leak. Now the parent can honestly say, “Well they did not work, so how about we get you something that tapes on?” Trust me, a lot of kids go with this and accept Attends Youth. Friends in the diaper business tell me the move by all the vendors is to eliminate pull-up and switch to an improved brief with refastenable tabs so kids can take them down to toilet and put them back on, like a Pull-Up that works. Expect test marketing by the end of 2008 and national roll-out in mid 2009!
