Perfect Pull-up for Larger and Older Children at Camp

Posted on the 11 June 2018 by Np23 @Nancy_JHS

With summer camps and sleepover situations coming up, we are always on the lookout for helpful products. Parents are often concerned that current pull-ups their older children are using will leak and cause embarrassment in front of their friends. While using disposable underwear does not take the place of effective treatment, there are situations that come up where staying dry in the most discreet way possible is important.

The Abena Abri-Flex Premium Protective Underwear

Perfect Pull-up for Larger and Older Children at Camp
are the most absorbent disposable pants on the market. The Extra Small size can absorb 43 ounces, compared to less than half that amount for most other disposable pull-ups about this size. The average 10 year old's bladder holds around 12 ounces at a time. Some children wet more than once a night and can experience leaking.

Designed for incontinent adults, who typically produce more urine than children, there are unique features found specifically in this product. The advanced odor control system locks away wetness to prevent embarrassing urine odor. Internal cuffs prevent leakage and the anatomic shape ensures a close fit to the body.

Since most adults are Medium to Extra Large, the Extra Small size that older children require is not easy to find. BedwettingStore.com carries the Extra Small size, which fit children with waist sizes of 17.5 to 27.5 inches. The elasticized waistband can be folded down if your child is on the shorter side. The plain white color is unisex and does not infantilize the user with childish prints.

We also carry other brands of disposable pants, waterproof sleeping bag liners, and waterproof washable and disposable underpads that may be helpful for overnight situations.
