Terries will probably always be available for use as many mum's prefer to use them for older bedwetters as they provide a good absorbing kind if protection that youth size disposables do not really offer on a everyday basis. I have 1 bedwetter right now and up until recently had 2. I can say without hesitation that terries have never leaked when used with plastic pants. For some mom's it means that everyone in the house gets a good nights sleep and the child is able to focus on their activities the next day being well rested even though bedwetting is a normal thing for them.
So like Katies's mum and myself and other mum's who have written here we have reasons and needs for terries and have found them to be what works for us.

I am now 17 and still wear a terry toweling nappy each night, my choice not my mums I just wanted to do my bit for the envioroment.
Talking of buying disposables I went with my mum to buy disposable nappies a few times for myself, I have on occassions worn "TENDERCARE" disposables which we buy at a medical supply shop on a industrial estate. I have never been embarrassed in the slightest I have always worn nappies to bed so I guess it don't bother me.

before anyone thinks the wrong thing i am not some kind of perv or nothing..

But what i am is 14 years old, and since a really young age i have wet the bed, it is not something to hide, nor be ashamed of... i wear Drynites to help and keep my sheets dry however there is also a rubber matress cover.What does this have to do with the topic?

u thought she was embarassed probably if it was her first time with her parents buying them, but if it wasnt she wouldnt care, i buy my own drynites it doesnt bother me... why should it? it is the exact same as needing a wheelchair - a medical condition.

Well said Laura. I couldn't agree more. As you say, its a mediacla condition that many suffer from so no need to be embarrassed.

One of my good friends have three daughters which I use to babysit alot had bed wetting problems. Melissa who is now 11 years old has only just gotten out of wearing dry nites but still has a plastic mattress on her bed as she will still wet occasionally. She is perfectly normal, really popular at school, a happy girl but is extremely sensitive with the subject that she is a bed wetter. I didnt know which process her mum would buy them but I do know that Melissa would keep them in a back of a drawer out of site so noone can see them.
It's not WHAT you do it's the WAY that you do it. And THAT'S what gets results !!
