Blümchen Junior/Adult Fitted Diaper
Junior/Adult fitted diaper from Blümchen
This fitted diaper has been specially developed for older children, adolescents and adults with a lot of urine loss. This reusable incontinence material is made entirely of absorbent bamboo-cotton terry cloth around the body. The diaper also absorbs around the hips, making it ideal for people who sleep on their side or turn a lot at night. The flaps around the hips are quite wide, which ensures a good fit around the body. As a result, the diaper falls relatively high on the stomach and back. For most people, the diaper will reach about navel height. This ensures that this diaper can come above the waistband. This is something to take into account when wearing during the day.
To make this diaper waterresistent you need a cover, to ensure that your clothes stays dry. These covers are not included. These incontinence pants can be perfectly combined with the Blümchen cover. In most cases, the adult cover from Kijani will also fit over them. The Teen cover from Kijani do not fit over this fitted diaper. The fitted diaper needs to be changed for a new one with every changing. You can use two covers per day, which are washed at the end of the day or after a night. In between, you hang the used cover to air for a while before using them again, so you alternate them. You can use the cover about 2 to 3 times before washing them.
If the diaper itself does not absorb enough, it is possible to place one or more extra booster(s) in the diaper. A cotton Blümchen prefold in size L can also be used as extra absorbency. The diaper can be adjusted completely to your needs in this way. If you would like more absorption, it is also an option to try a size larger. Many sizes have overlap in the waist size. If the diaper has to be closed on a small position, this diaper will sit more bulkier, than when it just fits. In addition, the diaper will then sit higher on the stomach and back. In most cases, it will then come over the navel.
The diaper can be adjusted around the hips with two rows of snaps. The diaper can be closed with 6 snaps on both sides, but it is not necessary to always close all the snaps. In most cases, closing 4 to 8 snaps is enough, so 2 to 4 per side. It is also possible to close these snaps non-symmetrically if this suits the body shape better. You then choose to make the bottom button one notch looser or tighter than the top button at the belly. It is often useful to leave the middle button open. A photo has been added where the bottom button is a bit looser than the button at the belly. This is especially useful for people with sturdy upper legs in relation to the belly. If the belly is firmer in relation to the legs, it can sometimes be nice to make the button at the belly one notch looser than at the bottom at the legs.
The table shows the minimum and maximum waist size of the diaper. At the maximum waist size, the diaper is closed with both rows of snaps. It is also possible to close the diaper with one row of snaps. The diaper will then fit a little longer. The second row of snaps will then touch the skin. In general, people do not have any problems with this. Size XS fits from about 26 kg, but is still very large. The diaper will then fall over the navel and hang between the legs. If you are looking for a diaper for a young child between 25 kg and 30 kg, the GroVia Big O.N.E., the Kijani SIO cover, the Kijani pull-up diapers and the Bedwetter Pants from Mother-ease are generally a more suitable choice. The Huda Junior diaper is also a very flexible fitted diaper that fits most people up to about 30 kg.
Size S is for (young) adults and starts to fit from about 35 kg. This is the lower limit. Size S is not suitable for toddlers and preschoolers. The age indication is a rough indication. The smallest size is when the elastics are not stretched at all. When stretched, the elastic in the diaper is completely stretched and the diaper will be really tight.
