[QUOTE="slsh, post: 492505, member: 8"] The leg areas of Pampers have elastic in them so they fit snugly around babies' cute little chubby thighs, plus they have that extra bit of fabric around the leg openings to prevent leaks out the legs. I'm dealing with- man thighs now, LOL, so just have to make sure that the Pamper is as smooth as possible, with nothing that chafes or bunches up around the back thigh/buttock area. At one point, his school nurse wasn't smoothing it out and the leak-preventing bit of diaper was getting folded up over itself on the buttock, and we ended up with a shearing injury (basically kinda like a rug burn) from the combination of the folded up part of the diaper and them trying to slide him into his chair. I'm totally paranoid when it comes to skin health - as long as there are no folds or bunches in the diapers, we haven't had problems. Basically, we decided to use them as liners because adult diapers are about as absorbent as a tissue, and the adult "liners" just didn't cover enough area. Pampers got us through a decade of babies, with virtually no skin issues and good absorbancy, so I decided to stick with- what works, with modifications. [/QUOTE]
