Pampered Like a baby

In recent years I have been wearing diapers more than ever because my health is not getting any better now that I have passed 40+ and am now nearly 42 which will be in October of this year.

I was wondering if anyone else still refers as adult diapers as pampers as I heard a refrence to ot a couple of weeks ago while on line and this got me thinking why doesn't pampers produce any adult sized disposable diapers like they do for infants and toddlers?

As it would make sense to do this because of the rapidly aging population worldwide and the fact there are less and less children born every year that goes by even-though the world wide population stands at well over 7 billion people.

Any thoughts on this subject would be greatly appreciated

Thank you.

If Pampers made adult sizes, I would wear them. But with all the different brands for adults it might take time

ABUniverse has the best ones that are closest to being babyish.

Actually the original Attends diapers were made by P&G (Proctor & Gamble) who also makes Pampers. The Attends were a good product back then.

While they aren't made by Pampers. The Supet Dry Kids look alot like Pampers Baby Dry. I would wear Pampers if they used some other designs besides Sesame Street

Pampers didn't exist when I was diapered every night for my bedwetting. The only diapers available to mom at the time were cloth diapers and plastic pants which she always called ‘rubber pants" and that's what I have on now. Still call them rubber pants.

My Mom made diapers and other linens for the medical field. We had on average hundreds of cloth diapers in our warehouse. Pampers and flushable diapers destroyed my Mom's cloth diaper business. They came onto the market and soon we could not sell cloth diapers or the diaper pants Mom designed.

Can't blame Proctor and Gamble for their products. 7 Billion dollars a year in Pamper sales did its best to eliminate cloth diapers in the marketplace. I was young enough and small enough that Pampers in the largest size just fit me. Mom would have me in a Pamper to show all her lady friends how terrible paper diapers were.

With the drop in diaper age babies, a new market is revisiting cloth diapers and plastic or rubber pants. Also, P&G is saying the market for adult diapers will save the diaper and paper business.

@Naughty_Elf Interesting and enlightening post. Did not realize how large the market was and the trend to more adult care! I guess that's something we all have to look forward to! 😕 Thanks.

They'd better start with making adult sized Pampers then!

Can anyone think of the need that brought on the development of disposable adult diapers? When I heard the answer it surprised me. Yes, incontinence was one of the driving forces. The actual design for adult diapers was initiated by returning Vietnam Veterans traveling wounded home. I have heard this a couple of times from a few Vietnam Vets that we know.

I may be mistaken, but I seem to recall browsing through the Sears catalogue in the 50's and seeing adult size cloth diapers and plastic pants.

The good old cloth diapers have been around since God was in them. Theodore Roosevelt sorry if I spelled it wrong, he used the old Lang plastic pants and cloth diapers. He was a Polio victim I believe.

It was Franklin(FDR) not Teddy. He contracted polio when he was in his 20's, quite unusual.
