Week 2: Socializing in diapers   Woah, what a week it has been. After the end of the month I guess I will start updating per-month instead of per-week, unless something really exciting happens. First of all, thank you all for your comments, I read through all of them as they come and would like to hear everyone's journeys into diapers 24/7, as if there's one thing I got so far, is that mileage does vary for everyone.    This week has been a bit strange, firstly because I got to spend about 24 hours without my diaper, as I had to do a few things I'm still a bit anxious wearing my diaper to, and I must say, it was harder than expected. At one point, as I sat down, I felt I needed to pee and I instinctively released my bladder, thinking "oh, I got my diapy, it's okay", only to then realize I, in fact, did NOT have any protection, as I almost wet myself. I managed to stop in time, only dribbling a bit in my panties. Needless to say, that semi-accident convinced me even more I do belong in diapers.   This week I've also started getting out of the house some more, not only for groceries and working out, but also to hang out with some friends, of course, wearing protection in the meantime. I've opted for full diapers instead of pull-ups as a result of my "pull-up day" I did back in Week 1, as it showed me they will leak pretty fast if I don't keep on changing them. I expected to be very self-conscious of my diapered butt, but it turns out I'm very confident in them! I started wearing skirts a lot more, which helps, but with a few tricks (such as wearing workout shorts and a onesie over my diaper) I saw I can also afford to wear tighter jeans without my diaper showing, too.  And, most importantly, I managed to leak into my diapy while talking with friends, that were literally next to me! Like, we're talking inches away, standing near me! That felt wonderful, knowing they were none the wiser and I got to be myself and let go on my padding. Wetting while standing has become very easy, as did wetting whilst sitting. I'm also finding it easier to wet in my car, although not while driving still, as I imposed myself to sit in my car, standing still in a parking lot, until I peed. That has helped quite a bunch with making me feel more at ease in wetting whilst sitting in a car.     Stats so far! Total of diapers used until now: 38 Total diapered time: 12 days, 10 hours Average changes per day: 2.6 Amt. of diaper leaks: 13 (nearing 40%)   As always, let me know what you think, write any advice or about your journey <3!
