I finally found the commercial. It’s actually well done and the baby is cute.
Notice that the grandmother uses them too and recommends to her daughter. That’s why I mentioned they expect to hook the consumer on the product for a long time.
You’ll have to cut and paste the link. Discourse won’t let the link work.

I don’t think that marketing of adult diapers will really and truly reach the “unnecessary greed” phase until we start seeing commercials aimed at the sexual kink that employs diapers.
After I gave birth, I lost continence when I stood up. This only lasted a week or so.
I thought everybody knows that adult diapers are just the thing to wear when driving 900 miles nonstop to assault your ex-partner’s new girlfriend.
THINX aren’t actually diapers. That’s the company that originally came out with reusable period underwear and now they have reusable incontinence underwear. It’s generally meant for light incontinence , as an alternative to pads.
Thank doreen. I learned something today. 
I’ll take your word. Be well.
I read somewhere that there has been a significant surge in younger women buying adult diapers, but not for post partum bladder control, but so that they could last the entire 3 1/2 hours of the Taylor Swift concert without needing to head to the restroom.
That was mentioned on Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me a couple of weeks ago.
That idea is not so new - I knew men who wore diapers to football games over 20 years ago.
Hmmm … I really want to see Oppenheimer in a theater, but three hours is a long time to go without …
If there is anyone that seriously believes that people are using adult diapers because they are lazy or can’t be bothered to drop what they’re doing and find a bathroom, I suggest you try this little experiment.
Put on a pair of adult diapers under your normal street clothes. Then drink a bunch of beer or water……hold it in until you have a completely full bladder. Then unload into the adult diaper.
Once you find out what a completely full adult diaper looks and feels like, you will probably that no sane person would pick adult diapers over toilets just because of convenience.
With the possible exception of astronauts. Everyone talks about the psycho astronaut that wore the adult diapers so she didn’t have to make a pit stop on her way to commit a crime, but astronauts have to use those diapers frequently and it sort of gets normalized.
Wearing them maybe, but I’m pretty sure Chris Hadfield said with a bit of pride he never needed to actually use one. They’re only worn during ascent and descent and some astronauts just hold it, so I don’t think “frequently” is accurate.
Many years ago, I briefly dated a very nice man who had previously worked at Kimberly Clark, and among other things, employees would test various products, and they actually had an RN on staff whose job it was to measure people and the products. Sometimes, he said you’d go into the cafeteria, and notice that someone’s pants seemed a bit lumpy, and you could hear “crinkle crinkle” as they walked by. He never heard of anyone, ahem, testing the diapers, but women certainly did with menstrual products.
