I really wanted to try pooping but was too shy to buy diapers. So I made some. If there's a sewing machine in your house (?) you could probably do an easy one in an evening. The results were fantastic. After I tried em the feeling was terrific, but I did not like cleaning them. That was enough motivation to buy disposables. I, like diapered teddy bear, had a scenario in my head, not expecting to say it but just to give me the persona to adopt while purchasing them. I also put them in with a much larger purchase. Easier to hide when going through the store. I reason that, with an ill relative i *still* wouldn't be thrilled to be the family member picked to go buy them, so its within character to hide them amongst my other purchases. I still use my disposables for peeing or, if i really wanna poo, i put a cut disposable underneath it. Homemade vinyl pants made it complete but, i still use both disposables and cloth.
