Jackson wears Tranquility Slim Line Briefs with a Depends Boost pad for extra absorbency.  Here is how we do it.

1.  Put the Boost pad in the diaper.  The front of the pad should line up with the padding of the diaper.

2.  Line up the back of the diaper approximately even with his belly button.

3.  Bring the front of the diaper up between his legs.  Wrap the sides of the diaper smoothly around his body and tuck it under his body.

4.  The top tabs should be pulled firmly and fastened above the padding of the diaper.  Make sure to fasten both the blue and the white tapes at the same time.  Then you can unfasten and refasten the white tapes without ripping the diaper. 

5.  The lower tabs can be brought firmly across at a slight upwards angle just below the padding of the diaper.  They should not be touching the elastic around the legs, this is too low and the tape tab will cut into Jackson's legs if he is seated.  Again, make sure to fasten both the blue and the white tabs at the same time.

6.  You are finished.
