Where to find large diapers?

[Just Another Jen]

My youngest is a 55 pound 4 year old. He still needs diapers and I've been buying pampers size 7. They are getting tight. Any resources for finding them in a bigger size?

 

Thanks!

I ran into this with my son, he uses Goodnights now (he's 63 lbs and uses the L-XL size). Pull Ups/Easy Ups go to a size 4T-5T.

 

If you need something more absorbent, you may have to go to adult diapers in juvenille sizes. You can go to a medical supply store and see what they have. I have searched the internet from one end to the other to see what's out there and the industry pretty much jumps to adult diapers when you max out the baby diaper sizes.

 

Good luck and I hope you find what you need.:001_smile:

Honestly, I see them at the Goodwill all the time here... probably because they are just "there". But... they're all packaged up and such...

Hmmm

If he has a medical reason/special need reason for his still needing diapers at 4, check with your health insurance as many of them will supply diapers/wipes/blue pads, etc. for kids over 3 with special needs. We used to get ours UPSed to our house once a month.

My ds 8 uses them. We use a size bigger then his weight to make sure no leaks. Neice 11, uses the adults small diapers better because she doesn't feel so wet in the morning.

Thanks all. I'll check with our insurance. I have tried goodnights but they

are expensive compared to diapers.
