Hello, I am making this post to know if there are any other brands other than drynites that can help my bedwetting. I'm fairly skinny for my age (16) so adult diapers do not really fit me well. But drynites are also kinda expensive and the largest size is a bit too big. I also need something that can contain poop; does anyone know anything.
I'm 5'11", and 120lbs

Sorry I can’t help as my son with the issues is 6 so not been through your situation but I can see you have no replies so is it worth perhaps contacting Eric to see if they can advise.
Hi how about contacting your bladder and bowel team if under one or doctors as surely with your age you should get some protection free? In mean time Seeing as your slim and 8-15 yrs dry nites are too big, try the smaller size? or Asda do there own brand up to 12yrs, and if you don’t mind what your wearing you could try largest (8 I think) pampers pull ups there obviously built to hold 1s and 2s! Good luck x
Asda seem to have discontinued there pullups for older children which is a shame, I used to buy them for my granddaughter as the 8-15 drynites where a little too lose on her and would slip down after she had used them but she was too old for the smaller size.
The largest size of the day and night pants where perfect, they where nice and tight, but without silly fairy designs, and absorbent enough to last her till lunch time without leaking.
Huggies have now changed the colour of the 8-15 drynites to a dark grey which Sophie dosent like either, she thinks there ugly.
So I was at a loss she was refusing to wear anything but tesco junior nappies but I got fed up with having to go a 20 minute round trip to get 3 packs at a time.
I gave up and ordered a delivery of tena nappies, I was just going the get the cheep blue ones, but I showed Sophie them before I made the order and she spotted the pink 'maxi' ones and they where only a few pence more so I let her have them, they should be here Monday.
You are very light for your height, 8st 8lbs is nothing at almost 6ft
When you say diaper are you talking about an adult nappy? I know they get called many things like slips and briefs.
Unless you have big hips you will find pull up type nappies won't fit well, but one with sticky tapes allows you to get a better fit, they also hold in odours better if you soil at night aswell.
I ordered them in a small, I wanted a size up from tesco junior nappies, and Sophie wanted them to be pink.
They feel the same as the junior, sort of papery outside not noisey like drynites, they are a bit bulkier under certain clothes, but can last her all day and she doesn't wake up soaked in pee anymore.
Thankfully Sophie hasn't gotten her period yet, but I don't think it's far away, I can see her hormones affecting her behaviour, she's became far more emotional lately.
I must say I didn't look at other brands, as a loyal tena lady customer I knew I could trust tena.
