How to Change a Disposable Pull‐Up Style Adult Diaper

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Grab a new diaper from the package and prepare it for use

   Place it nearby when this step is complete.

   Step 2: by separating the cling at the diaper's containment zone.

   Use a waterproof changing pad when changing a disposable adult diaper.
   
   These precautionary extra measures may be purchased at most supermarket chain stores, where adult disposable diapers are sold.
   
   For those wearers who are super cost-conscious, as long as you don't mind doing a few more items in your washing machine, spread out some bath towels on the changing surface you'll be using in lieu of these underpadding layers.
   
   Kitchen and hand towels tend to cover a smaller surface area, so avoid these at all costs. ,,, Keep your hands next to one another near the center of the diaper with a 5-fingered pinching grasp. , You should hear a ripping sound.
   
   At this point, this sound is normal.This sound will later become a sound you don't want to hear, but for now, the ripping sound is A-Okay!). ,, You can't bring the feet up as far as when the wearer was when they were children, but if you can get them up more than a few inches, it's okay.
   
   If you can't bring them up far enough, you may need to roll them over. ,,,, No need to complete that step now. , If you other problems require you to not stand up, you may help guide the pull-up styled adult diaper, over the adults body, much like the method you used when you changed the last pull up diaper on other toddler/kids, as you'll be found hanging your feet over the edge of the changing surface's outer side and sliding the diaper up into position. ,,, Make sure the taller side is facing the wearer's rear-end as you pull up the diaper.
   
   If you realize that this is not the case after pulling the pant all the way up, you won't need a new diaper; just pull the pant all the way downwards, step out of the diaper, turn the diaper around, and step back into this pant and re-apply.
