Pediatric Incontinence

Baby diapers, briefs, or “nappies” may be the most familiar term for most people when it comes to incontinence products. Child diapers have tab closures that allow for changes without getting completely undressed. For children with special needs or limited mobility, the tearable side panels make diaper removal easier and more hygienic than pull-ups/pull-ons.

Pull-ups, also called youth pants for older children, are disposable protective underwear. They are absorbent to protect against bladder leaks and work well for mobile children who prefer a product that closely resembles regular underwear. Pull-ups can also be more discreet than regular diapers. For younger children, pull-ups are typically used as training pants for potty training, however, they also work well for children experiencing incontinence due to medical conditions or disabilities. These products don’t have fasteners or tabs, they simply pull up over the legs. 

There are several brands that offer pull-on protective underwear designed specifically for nighttime, providing the absorbency needed for bedwetting. They are designed to be soft, comfortable, and breathable while being leak-proof at the same time. Overnight absorbent underwear come with a stretchable waist and side leak barriers for all-night wetness protection. Sleepovers and Comfees DriNite Youth Pants are two popular options.

Underpads, also called chux, are absorbent pads that can be placed on furniture as a chair pad or on your child’s bed as a bed pad. Underpads protect against all types of incontinence. Underpads come with super-absorbent pads that help protect fabrics from urine.

Barrier creams are a typical part of a child’s skincare routine when using diapers. The creams help keep skin moisturized and protected against rashes so your child’s skin stays healthy while using incontinence products.
