First off, let me begin by saying that the Attends have held up really well. They're really comfortable and they're not bulky or anything, so they're pretty unnoticeable visually. However, I had no idea that they would be so loud! I've never worn any diapers that were quite this crinkly and I definitely wasn't prepared for it. It kind of made me rethink the Attends decision because I feel like every step I take, the crinkles scream that I'm wearing a diaper. But I've already stocked up with two cases of them, so it looks like I'm stuck in them for the duration. We'll see how that goes.
So anyway, after I left off yesterday, item number 1 on the agenda was to go upstairs and prepare myself. I began by shaving the diaper area to help avoid rashes and then showered off. Before I knew it, I was diapered up and had begun the "experiment." And literally five minutes after I strapped the first one on and was getting used to the sound and feel of it, I had a knock on my door that ended up being my friend wanting to hang out. At first I was really nervous that she would automatically hear them, so I suggested we go to more populated places with more background noise.
We decided on going to get sno cones and then eventually getting dinner. All the while I was also focusing on going when I needed to go. Any time I felt the urge to pee, I went and prayed each time that I wouldn't spring a leak. Luckily, I chose a good brand and I never had a problem. However, this was lesson number one for me as I learned that I needed to pack a diaper bag and have it ready to go at a moment's notice.
When we got home we decided to get some friends together for drinks at a local bar for the evening and went our separate ways for a few hours. First thing I did was change my soaked Attends. Although they held everything well, they still were really bunched up from being so wet so it felt really good to get a clean, dry diaper on. I was a little worried about the Attends' ability to hold up to a night of drinking though, so I decided to cheat a little and changed into a Secure X-Plus, which I happened to have a few of already. I still packed up a diaper bag and brought it with me to the bar, but I didn't want to have any alcohol-induced floods that would embarrass me on the first night. I'm not that much of a drinker, but I would rather be safe than sorry.
So it went pretty uneventful. I ended up only drinking a beer and we didn't stay out too late. So I was home well before the Secure was full. In fact, it was so dry that I decided to just wear it to bed and get back in Attends in the morning.
So far today has been pretty uneventful as well. I got up and showered and changed into a fresh diaper and then I've spent the day doing laundry and cleaning the apartment. Mostly lounging in a t-shirt and diaper though, which is extremely comfortable. Still haven't had any awkward moments or even had to change anywhere other than my own apartment yet, but it's still early. I still need to run a few errands around town and then will probably end up getting together with friends tonight, so I'm sure I'll have plenty to tell tomorrow!
