Ok so just to be clear here, I am male!
I did a little experimenting with my new Tena Ultima's last night. They certainly seem to hold a lot without leaking. In order to make the wetting easier, I accompanied it with a bottle of wine, some beer and whisky just for good measure, as well as a lot of water so I didn't get a hangover (nearly worked!).
The trouble is, I don't remember going to bed. I think the alcohol must have had more of an effect than I thought... I know I must have changed into a fresh Tena, and put my onesie over the top. I somehow managed to forget my plan to wear plastic pants and protect the bed just in case. Now normally no matter what I do, I will wake up to pee. In this case I have a vague recollection of half-waking up a couple of times and going in my nappy, which in itself is strange because I find it really hard to pee lying down.
What is great is that this is the closest in years of trying I've ever come to sleep wetting, and even when wet, the Ultima's are really comfortable and don't fall apart.
What is not so great is that the bed and my onesie had a sizeable wet patch when I woke up. This is I suspect because I generally sleep on my front. If I was "pointing upwards" at the time, that's probably why. Like I said, I was barely awake :-)
Does anyone have any tips for leak-free nights when lying on one's front? It goes without saying I will try to remember to protect the bed and wear plastic pants next time!
