How do you diaper yourself?

I wear pin on cloth diapers. I always lay the diaper out on the bed and then lay on top of it. I wear pre-folds that are long enough so you can fold back about 8 to 10 inches. That way I have an extra thick night time diaper without having to mess with a doubler. I pin them pretty snug so the diaper will stay on when it is wet. I would say it is like a lot of other things. The more you do it, the better you get at it!

For me, I do most of my diaper changes standing up. When it's bed time, if I need to put a fresh diaper on, I will lay down to do it. Since I change at work, gas stations, and medical offices, it's easier and cleaner to stand. At home I have found it a little easier to change standing up too if I am not going straight to bed.

Now if I were using cloth diapers, I don't know if I could do that. If and when I ever get the chance to try cloth, then I can tell you more.

I get the best results from standing up and using the wall when putting on a depend. I do the first two top tapes and then the final two tapes on each side. If I'm putting on a pull-up, I'll lie down on the bed and pull it up as far as i can.

Always standing up - first to go on is pullup bloomers specially made of layers of cloth diaper. Second is Tena mesh pants with a thick cloth contour diaper inside to ensure lots of thirsty material, then the plastic bloomers and a plastic coverall for night time security. Sounds like a lot, but it works, and it really feels good.

If I were wearing disposables I'd probably lie down to put them on.

I normally do standing up as it is much faster for me. Sometimes I will do lying down but that is very seldom. I can put a diaper on with a tight fit in under 10 seconds. It is like tying my show and has become second nature.

The best diapers I have worn were those put on me by a friend. Otherwise i lay down on the bed/couuch when putting on new. Up against a wall does work, but only in emergencies, which is why I prefer using a booster or two. No need to change until one gets home then!

Well did you look at the directions on the bag lol? Here is a vidio to help you too. http://www.prevailproducts.com/

After being in diapers for over 10 years i can change in the dark lol. I also changed in the car too even. Standing or laying down is still the easyest as suggested by the others here.

I pre-tape mine. I use a Tena Super with 2 booster pads. One long tranquility one and an Attends one. I have used so many of them, I know where the tapes have to go. I place the tapes and then put strips of filament tape overtop to get them to be very tough. I then use lots of baby lotion all around to protect from diaper rash and powder myself and the diaper. I then stand up and pull it up. I have the tapes set for a nice snug fit, so it take a little work. Then on go plastic pants. I can heavy wet most of the day at work and change when I get home.

Laying down is always the easiest way to put a diaper on. You will get a better fit. Standing is often shown but it is difficult to do and usually takes more time to get right. I prefer cloth diapers and pins so trying to do that standing is very difficult.

When I first pin on my cloth diaper I fold the front over about 2" and sprinkle a good amount of baby powder over the middle(front and back) lay myself on the diaper pinning one side then getting the other side nice and snug before pinning and then slowly pulling on my plastic pants. If I'm using a bathroom(mine or a bathroom stall) and having to poo(I don't like poopy diapers or the smell)I unpin one side and when i finish I stand and pull the pinned side up and make sure that diaper is snug and comfortable then pin the other side with regular diaper pins and quickly wiggle my plastic pants up over my diapers,pull up my jeans and pull down my t-shirt and go on my way

I find it easier to lie down to put on my diaper

While I would prefer cloth diapers and plastic pants my wife prefers not having them in the laundry and prefers that I wear disposable for my bedwetting. I have become adept at doing this standing up and have learned that starting the taping from the bottom tab up makes for a very secure fit.

For disposables, I stand and agree that positioning the bottom tapes first produces a tighter fit around the leg openings.

For cloth at night, lying down is the only way that I could get my diapers on.

I am able to either stand or lay down and diaper myself quite well I've been wearing for years though guess i just have the practice

I stand with my back pinning the nappy against the bedroom door so both hands are free to pull it up between my legs and secure the tapes. Blocking the door also stops the kids from suddenly bursting in on me.

Both standing against a wall and lying down either on the bed or the floor. Changing venues keeps it interesting.

When I was still able to change my own diapers I could never get it quite right no matter what position and not I am not allowed to change myself.

Yes, I have been taught how to diaper myself by my mommy,but much prefer to have someone else diaper me and check my diaper status and change me if needed.

I change on changing mat or on the bed always lie down with legs in the air

I put the diper on laying down on my bed its easy when you have lots of experieance at it.

It depends on whether I am home or not.

If at home, I put it on the corner of my bed and sit down on it, then pull up and tape.

If out in public, I stand up and put it on back to front, then tape it.

I always put mine on standing up - it doesn't seem to work when sitting or lying down

I tend to lay on my back, some times in front of a mirror to make sure evenly powdered, usually with a towel down I have a sheet of plastic for the...occations..earlier I had to squat over the chamber pot, I couldn't contain my urine, and it dripped out the side. when I squatted down my bowels were forcfully evacuated pushing my diaper deep into the diaper pail. I ripped the sides and let it fall I pushed and my insides emptied. It was to the tub, for a wash up and a fresh enema this time ivory soap. 3 bulbs and a push of air.

currently playing a game, how many nappies. I have a pink insert in a pink diaper in a white one in 3 puffy white ones, the last one having an old duct tape best. I'm quite thick between the legs I can touch my thighs together, cleaning up my room waiting on my coffee enema.. I have my cheeks spread and my anus on the cheese cloth when it comes time to clench... the liquid will dribble out once it wets the powder.Sure enough when I stood this time the strong coffee wet the cloth and my bottom started to dribble the insert was quickly moistening

I either lay on my back on the floor and put the diaper and lotion on or stand up in front of the mirrior and diaper myself

Most of the times on my back on the bed

I stand agenst the wall with the diaper tapes in back and pull the front up between my legs and fasten the lower tapes first then the top and get a snug fit

I simply lay on my back cause I can get a good fit

Standing seems to provide a snugger fit.

Just lay down. Can't do it standing up.

I used pull-ups for awhile since they seemed to be easier to put on--the tape thing seemed horribly inconvenient. Until I started using them with my driving job and found myself changing in restroom stalls, and then the tapes suddenly made a lot of sense. At first did it lying down, but have now gotten used to taping them on while standing up. I wear them under my underwear, which are always bicycle-shorts style boxer briefs. A lot of times, I'll pull my underwear and pants down only halfway, as bending down to pull my underwear and pants might cause the tapes to pop. I usually put them on back to front, and fasten the bottom tapes first followed by the top tapes.
