Children’s “Goodnights” diapers for petite mother

Anonymous
Have any of you tried “Goodnights” brand diapers for your petite elder parents? I was doing the math, and they are much cheaper than Depends or other adult brands. If you have tried these, what were your experiences?

Sort of relevant but I used GoodNites for my 13-yr old disabled child who weighs 70 lbs, along with a Sposie diaper insert. Works ok!

The issue could be the amount of urine an elder produces compared to what a child does.

Are you saying that with an elder and a child of the same size (height and weight), the elder produces significantly more urine?

Yes. Your kidneys gradually get less efficient as you age. This means that you must drink more water than you did when you and your kidneys were younger. Consequently, you will need to urinate more often, and in larger quantities.
