    • Working from home today, and I was on a call with a coworker when I felt the need to go.   Since I was padded up, I decided to just stand up and let go with it.  Ended up sitting in that mess for about an hour, got a light lunch, and only just got done washing up in the shower.   While I might not be using the toilet much when home ... I almost make up for it by the fact I'm double-showering on days I do this.  
    • Hi everyone, First of all, thanks a lot for all your replies and for sharing your experiences! I really appreciate it, and some of your comments have definitely helped. Maybe I should explain a little more about why I’m asking. I’m actually a pretty frequent flyer myself, traveling for business roughly every two to three weeks. Most of my trips are just one or two days, so I almost always travel with carry-on luggage only. After all these years, I’m very familiar with airport security procedures, being padded, additional bag checks, and everything that comes with frequent flying. So most of what you’ve described matches what I’ve experienced or suspected myself for quite some time. What I’m really curious about, though, is whether someone here has actual first-hand knowledge from working with airport baggage scanners. Someone who has operated these machines, or knows from professional experience exactly if and what adult diapers look like on the screen.  There have been occasions when my carry-on was pulled aside for additional screening, and a few times I had the distinct impression that the person looking at the second monitor could actually recognize the diapers inside. So are diapers very easy to recognize or very hard to spot…. Maybe they can’t spot diapers but definitely the material and that’s why they don’t pay more attention to it. If shirt or diaper, it looks the same on the screen and more importantly it is not dangerous goods… maybe if it’s a side view you can the folded diapers but I think it is not possible from too view   Interestingly, I used to carry powder with me, which seemed to trigger additional inspections almost every time. I’ve stopped bringing it for that reason. I’m not particularly worried about security staff seeing diapers, and I completely understand that they’re looking for prohibited or dangerous items. I’m simply genuinely curious whether they can identify individual adult diapers among clothes in a carry-on bag, rather than just seeing some unidentified soft material. MatthewDL, your experience working for a scanner manufacturer is particularly interesting in this regard! So if anyone here has actually worked in airport security or operated baggage X-ray or CT scanners, I’d still love to hear your perspective. Thanks again, everyone! Paladin
    • Hi, @diaperedtransgirl - I just stumbled upon this thread. It has been interesting following your journey so far; it definitely reminds me of my early days, in some respects, although I didn't have the option of wearing skirts - I do see your point with that, as the less snug sort would tend to drape away from the body. But I don't have the legs for it. But I have a daughter who used to only want to wear skirts over pull-ups, back when she was in them; she complained that pants or shorts left her with a "puffy bum".  I would echo much of what @oznl has had to say on this thread already; I'm about half a year behind him, in this journey (7.5 years for me), and I have found my experiences so far to have been on a similar trajectory. I can still hold it if I have to, but it gets uncomfortable after a much shorter period of time than it used to, and, I absolutely have to sleep in diapers now, as letting myself wet in bed for three quarters of a decade seems to have erased my sleep training, in that regard.  Your 2.5 diapers per day is not far off of my cadence; I typically use two to three a day, depending on what I have on my calendar, with an average over the years, that works out to about 2.25. I was wondering, when I started reading your entries, when you'd move away from pull-ups, and it didn't take you long. Even the best ones are not as good as a mediocre "real" diaper. I'd say that your leakage rate is way, way above mine - I only leak maybe once a week, or less, and those are generally events that don't require much aftercare. Two suggestions I would have are to try different products - even good ones fit differently on different people - and, if you're not already doing this religiously, to wee more often. Diapers contend better with frequent sprinkles than with infrequent deluges. I recall, early on in my "career", that I would sometimes start concentrating on something work-related, or even on driving, and then I would forget to wee for a while, resulting in a bit more of a flood, which tended to ramp up the likelihood of a leak.  I remember, as well, trying to get used to using them in the car, with friends, in bed with my wife, even on a plane or at a wedding or whatever. It does take a while to get used to going when you need to, regardless of the circumstances.  One area where I may be able to learn from you, would be in the gym department. Perhaps my only major regret on this journey, has been parting ways with going to the gym regularly. I used to run a couple of times a week, lift weights, and teach martial arts classes at my local gym, but after I started wearing diapers fulltime, I ran into issues with feeling self-conscious, first of all, about my diaper being either visible, or at least tactilely discernable (martial arts), and, second, I never really found a good one to run in - they all kind of chaff, under heavy exertion.  I've even considered joining another gym, where I'd be more anonymous, and then just being "diaper guy", if anyone noticed anything, whereas at my regular spot, a lot of people know me, so if I started exhibiting "Huggies butt", it would be talked about. How have you done it, so far, and how have you found it? Particularly in women's clothing.  Overall, welcome to the 24/7 fold - it's an illogical but interesting path-less-taken, to find yourself on. But you're not alone!
