I need to waer these at night only - do they leak? I get up 3-4 times a night and this would be a relief for me not to have to get up to go to the bathroom 3 or 4 times a night

Well, no, they do not leak, but they can get very heavy if you use them as a toilette. I should not say this, but you should see an Urologist and use this in case of an accident.

I personally would go with the abu cushies from abuniverse since u'd only be wearing them at night :)

I am not the actual person that wears them. However, the person who wears them does not wear them because of urine output.

They don't leak, but like my mother, it would help to add a maxi pad to the underwear for extra security.

I would not think so. However, the advice i received was to not drink anything after 6 PM. That helps me to not have to get up so frequently. These undergarments are great for daytime and nighttime too but will not hold a substantial amount of urine.

Yes, they do leak. I use pads along with the Silhouettes & still get up 3-4 times a night. I only take short trips only because of this problem.I'm sorry to tell you your problem will get worse.

I buy them for my 90 year old mom, who gets up about 3 times per night. I'm not sure if they would leak. My mom takes them off is they are the least bit wet. She hates feeling wet. I think the undearwear by the same company would be better. OK, so I just picked up the guide I have here for my mom for best protection for your needs by Depend. Depend Silhouette offer superior protection and the underwear offer maximum. Try this..go to depends website http://www.depend.com to receive a free sample and you be the judge. I received mom's last week. They will send you 3 sizes. The price is better here on Amazon though. I hope this helps. I buy them for my 90 year old mom, who gets up about 3 times per night.

My mom wears them every night and has been for the past 8 months. Before that she could get up as much as 5-6 times a night. The only time that they have leaked has been when she has slept much longer in the morning than usual. She sleeps usually for 9 hours and they are really full but not leaking.

I haven't had problems with leaks yet. My kids love these...don't fill them up all the way otherwise when u close them it will spill over.

I regularly shake things in my jars with these lids and I would say they DON'T leak about 95% of the time. Which is to say that every now and then there is some leakage - I think one of my lids is just "bigger" or sits "looser" than the others.

I use these 24/7 for my bedridden elderly Mom. I cannot respond to "how much water and weight pressure it holds" (how to measure/calculate?), but I can tell you that as long as they are in AND stay in the right place, there has been no leakage on the sheets. Sometimes -- overnight -- they have been somewhat "soaked", but my Mom urinates a LOT (quantity) and frequently. However, the pad bottom has not leaked through unless the pad got "moved up" too much when we pull her up (grabbing the sides of the washable bed pad and hoisting up) in the bed for meals.

They hold up very well. They will eventually spring a leak, but I have been using a pair for almost five months and they are still leak free. I use them multiple of times a day. They have a very good grip ability. Much better than the ones I've bought at the grocery store. I like them so much that I keep a spare in case a leak develops. Hope this helps.

I never did go swimming with them but when I used them I never felt comfortable going without a pad with it because you never know when it was going to leak and sometimes they did. Also, when they do get full they are hard to clean in a public place. After getting such a bad urinary tract infection from wearing these I don't ever want to use them again...

They will leak somewhat but I also have 7 small dogs and they are indoor dogs and that is their bathroom. Change it twice daily and wash them and they are fine for us. And they last, which makes it much cheaper than disposable pads.

They don't leak sound very much in my opinion, not unless you have them turned up past 70%. Though at that point it's quite loud.

I have had them for 6 months. No leaks other than a drop that may be there after pumping that you don't wipe off.

It depends upon your aunt's bowel movements. If it is fairly liquid, and in large quantity, they might. For a firmer bowel movement, I don't think she will have any problems. If it's a matter of beginning to go before reaching the bathroom, they will not leak, but a full, liquid BM might. You might want to check into Butterfly.com for bowel incontinence.

Mine have never leaked, you might have a defective pair, send the pair back to Amazon.

My son was wearing depends, he had to wear underwear. First few nights are pretty wet so be prepared for it! My son still leaks a bit but its not as much and has so many dry nights for the first time in 14 years! It is worth the changing the bedding often... I promise!!!! Just click it on underwear and unit on shirt or side of pillow and it will wake them.

At least for me, they fit very, very tight. I don't believe leakage should be a problem with these.

Speak with your doctor. I didn't wear them. Assuming you are lying down and your legs are even or raised above your heart you should not need to wear them to sleep in.

these only leak sound when they arent on your ears. Once they are on ears the cusions do their job and keeping the sound in. I use these in a work enviroment at a fairly high volume and have asked my co-workers about the sound and they do not hear it.

Actually, I had 4 of them & they all lasted as long as promised. Then a few weeks apart, they started leaking some brown gel into the toilet tank. I checked after I noticed the toilet bowls had rings around them that they had not had for all the previous years. I have replaced all 4 again.

That was my husband's problem. Leaked when slept on side. If slept on back ok. My husband rarely does in diaper so the few times he went in these they leaked.
