wear diapers 24/7 since birth and will be wearing for the rest of my life

[bedwetter bobby]

I was 8-9 when I stopped wetting my bed. I had been trained until I turned 5 and my parents divorced.For some reason this triggered nightly enuresis.
It was not too long before I found myself back in night diapers and plastic pants
. Looking back I can understand my moms reaction. She had all she could do to survive, working two jobs and being heart broken.
Our washing machine was an old wringer type and the dryer was a clothes line. I can't imagine washing sheets, blankets, pajamas, and underwear every day with this equipment. Neither one of us was thirlled that I was back in diapers but I know it saved her a lot of work. That was her plea to get me to wear them.
Was always curious as to how many other wore diapers for bedwetting back in the 50's,seems it was not too common.

Never. I have always worn diapers to bed.

I was first dry at night quite young, young enough that I don't even remember having any problems. When I was about 11 it started up again, however, and lasted until I was about 18. After that I was dry for a few months, but then it started happening again once or twice per week after that.

I officially stop when I was 13 or 14, but there have been time when I wet the bed. Once was during Boot Camp and then I wet a few times, while I was overseas. I just don't wake up to pee.

[Maurepas]

I still wet the bed, I've always wet the bed. I don't mind though, and neither does my bride to be, so,

I think i stop around 8-9 years old. Hard to remember when it was.

I needed diapers both day and night until I was about 7 1/2 years old. I finally gained daytime bladder control during the summer before starting the second grade. However, the bedwetting continued for another six months or so. I stopped needing diapers at night when I was about 8 years old. By that time, I was mostly able to stay dry at night or would wake up to go to the bathroom. There were still occasional nighttime accidents over the next couple of years, though.

I need to revise my previous response due to new information I found in some old family photo albums.

Up until I was 7 1/2 years old, it appears that I wore diapers 24/7 except on special family occasions like Christmas or my birthday when I wore training pants for a couple of hours at each event. By second grade, I was able to maintain daytime control for longer periods of time and no longer wore diapers to school. However, after school, for shopping trips, and family vacations, I continued to wear diapers until I was 14 years old.

My bedwetting and nighttime use of diapers continued until I was 10 years old. About that time, I was told that unless my bedwetting stopped, I wouldn't be allowed to go camping with the Boy Scouts. In the fall of the year I was 11 years old, I went on my first overnight camp out. After that, I don't remember having problems with bedwetting except as rare, widely spaced events until I was in my 50s when regular bedwetting became a problem again and I resumed wearing diapers at night.

So you stop wetting at night time first?

That seems to be the case. I'm guessing that my extended use of diapers kept my bladder small and I had difficulty holding the urine for any extended amount of time during the day. Mine is a long story and you can read about it in "the Training of a Diaper Lover" thread.

I'm still a little bewildered by my toilet training and apparent continued use of diapers until I was 14. If it weren't for the photographs, I'd still believe that I was toilet trained by the time I was 2 1/2 years old. For some reason, I seem to have blotted out most of my memories about wearing diapers. I've asked my younger sister what she remembers and she doesn't remember anything. My mother died over 15 years ago and my father hasn't been any help. Of course, he's 88 and often doesn't remember what day it is.

I occasionally remember snippets of information or very specific events that were obviously diaper-related, but I have nearly total amnesia about the diapers themselves or wearing them for so long.

I wore a diaper during the daytime through most of second grade, and was definitely diapered before naptime and bedtime through seventh grade. A bladder cancer diagnosis six years ago at age 31 brought diapers back 24/7. Abena M3/M4 or DryCare 24/7 mediums work well for me, especially when using a size 6 baby diaper as extra padding.

[kitster]

I don't remember exactly how old I was, guessing 7-8. My mother got fed up with and hung a diaper over the end of the bed and told me I would be wearing it the next night if I wet the bed again. I did not, but I do think this is one of the reasons I enjoy wearing and using diapers now.

I was potty trained at 3. I've had tummy troubles since I was little, but still had complete control of my bladder and bowels for the most part. I would have a few daytime accidents here and there until I was 6...then I dried up completely. Then things started going down hill when I hit puberty where I would leak all day and night. I wore medium protection at night for the leaks. My bladder got to the point it would hurt by morning because I didn't wake up to fully release it despite the dribbling, and I could feel it spasming...that was until my mid 20's. Now I don't have any control, but I don't feel the horrific bladder spasms any longer. Most nights, I wake up in a dry bed now except when I have the occassional diaper leak.

[brendan]

I. Wet the bed til I was 22. I'd often wet At least 3-4 times a week. Nothing was ever said about it. Although diapers were used as a threat.

[happyindprs]

I wet every night through age ten and the experienced both day and night wetting accidents beyond that time. I bought my first cloth diapers at age twelve.

[tndyperboy]

I wet every night until the summer I turned 10, then it just stopped. I was diapered at night until I was 5 or 6. After that I went through the usual routine, restricted liquids, bedwetting alarms, etc. Didn't really work just had to grow out of it. I would have been very happy if I had been diapered every night until it stopped.

[LilDavid]

Always in diapers, occasionally I've leaked at night, but I was wearing a diaper, so it got the worst of it.

[mikejackson999]

I was self toilet trained according to my parents around 2 yrs old and wet the bed occasionally until 16/17, but parents thought I stopped around 12/13

[BambinoBoyDL]

I wet the bed consistently every single night for most of my life. I didn't stop until I was 18 and even then, like OP, I still have accidents sometimes usually related to alcohol.
