My concern was more with what diaper companies have (or don’t have) in stock right now. The turnaround seems to be about a month or so when there’s not a global pandemic going on. I know people who work in importing/exporting and right now it’s taking forever to get things imported from China, where a lot of diaper companies manufacturers are located. So it’s not so much that I see a shortage because of production, but rather due to trade issues between countries.

A thought just occurred to me the other day. Since it seems like all the “stay at home” orders are mostly going to be in effect through May, maybe even June, I started wondering if anyone is stocking up on diapers for their stash. Especially when I started looking at some of the big name ABDL brand diapers and checking their stock (lots of sizes no longer available for certain types of diapers), I just wonder if a shortage could be coming. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe many (if not most) diaper companies have their diapers manufactured in China. All that to say, it caused me to order some when I normally would have waited. What do you think?

Agree with most of what’s already been said, but I have to advocate for my favorite diapers that everyone else has failed to mention - Tykables!

While, yes, that is easier clean up, the point is that people are buying toilet paper in bulk and stores are running out of it completely. Thus, if you’re wearing diapers you have no need for toilet paper ?

The Office Boss was a semi-recurring sketch/character. That seems to be the only one that NBC has up on YouTube, though.

Tykables has now upgraded all of their diaper designs/patterns to the waddle cut, most recently with the classic Overnight design. Part of me feels sad to see the old design go, but I do really enjoy the waddle cut.

I wonder if the kid who sang the song ended up being an ABDL.

Not simply the “discovery” of it so much as the acceptance of it. Since I learned to accept it about myself, rather than trying to get rid of it or just wallowing in my shame and embarrassment about it. I truly believe it’s only that which has allowed me to genuinely find enjoyment in it and work through it with my wife. She is accepting of it, but doesn’t participate.

Sounds to me like you might feel it easier to try to give up diapers all together, rather than opening up to your partner about them. I think the best thing for you to do is find a way to tell them. It won’t be easy, but in the long run, it will be worth it. Even if it ends your relationship, I would say it’ll be better for you and easier than trying to give up diapers. I wouldn’t say it’s impossible to do, but there are so many people out there (and on this site) who have tried to give up diapers and failed. There are a number of great resources that you can use to help explain things to them. First, I would recommend www.understandinginfantilism.org - there’s a section you could have them read on there that gives some explanation as to why some people like ABDL. There’s also a really good podcast called “Dream a Little,” that’s available wherever most people listen to podcasts or you can go to www.thelittlelounge.com and find the episodes there. All the best!

I definitely get what you mean! I do want to try them in large because I feel like they’ll fit me better.

I don’t know how many times I had to change my autocorrect from “waffle” to waddle, lol.

Honestly, I haven’t tried many newer diapers that are out there (Rearz Dino sounds like it’s supposed to be pretty thick). 7-8 years ago, I used to be all about the ConfiDry 24/7’s. Then 4-5 years ago I first tried ABU’s Little Pawz, and that became my favorite and what I would have said was the thickest diaper out there. Then 3 years ago I tried Tykables Overnights for the first time and just fell in love. At that same time I also tried Rearz Safari, and I do think they are maybe a little bit thicker than the Overnights, but, at least for me, they don’t fit as well. Overnights are the perfect fit for me. But as I stated in my original post, the Little Rawrz (and presumably any of their other new designs with the “waddle cut”) are a bit thicker than the Overnights. Just my 2 cents.

This weekend I finally got to try one of the new-ish Tykables Little Rawrs, with the “waddle cut” design. Now, I’ve been a big fan of their Overnights diapers for a few years, but I was very excited to try these. They’re pretty great. A little thicker than the Overnights, and the padding goes further out into the “wings” of both the front and back of the diaper. I was a little disappointed with the fit around the legs, though. I wear mediums and, I think due to the waddle cut design, the leg elastics were very tight around my inner thighs - almost to the point of discomfort. I would definitely try them again, although I’d be sure to go with the large. All that said, the Overnights are still my favorite. What do you all think?

No way she’s not ABDL.

No offense, but that’s not entirely accurate. I’ve done it and I’m not incontinent.

In fairness, I don’t actually use my diapers for their intended purpose. I know some people might think “what a waste,” but it just doesn’t really appeal to me. On the plus side, my diapers last much longer

First off, for those who didn’t know, the whole Rugrats series is on Hulu. Now, for the reason I’m sharing this. The first part of Season 2, Episode 6 features a story where Tommy’s dad, Stu, hits his head and begins to act like a baby. The kids even take a bedsheet off the clothesline to make a diaper for him. Eventually, he hits his head again, bringing back his grown-up self, but he keeps wearing the makeshift diaper, as if he doesn’t notice or care. Until Didi gets home and reprimands him for wearing the sheet.

This is the one thing that I want to experience most, that I never have, as an adult. My wife has come a long way in terms of dealing with my ABDL side. She’s basically gone from once asking me to never wear diapers again, to now, even encouraging me to wear from time to time because she now understands how much it means to me. In fairness, she has taken diapers off of me, but I have yet to be able to get her to diaper me. I think, eventually, she may give it a shot. She knows that I’d like her to try it at least once.

There’s a great podcast called “Dream a Little” that’s hosted by a girl named Lo. I was actually on an episode earlier this year.

One of my favorite things to do while diapered! I’ve never struggled as some have (not to brag) other than just because of the excitement of wearing a diaper to bed! I think I might actually sleep better in a diaper.

NYC is about the last place I would want to be for NYE. It would take a good amount of money and a diaper + booster for me to spend my night there.

Update: I had a good bit of diaper time last week, and one night I went into our bedroom to change. I picked up the diaper I was going to change into (reminder, that I don’t use, so my “dirty” diaper wasn’t dirty or even wet at all), and stood there for a few minutes. My wife came into the room and asked what I was doing, to which I replied that I was thinking. She asked me what I was thinking about and I just said, never mind. She then asked if I needed help with something. I said, “No, I don’t NEED help, but I would like some if you’re up for it.” She asked, “What do you want help with?” And I just asked her to take off the diaper I was wearing, and only if she was up for it, would she be willing to put the other one on me. She then said she would take off the diaper I was wearing, but not put the other one on me. Man, at first I really almost thought she was going to just change me! I think maybe she was, and then got psyched out and possibly uncomfortable with the idea of changing me. It’s okay, though, she also took another one of my diapers off the next day, and even just experiencing that was pretty nice (especially the second one because I was actually laying down). I feel like the more time I spend in diapers around her, the more comfortable she’s getting with it, and I think, eventually, she may warm up to the idea. Again, I don’t wear frequently, or even often, so it’s not like I’ll be asking her to change me all the time - even the next time I wear I won’t ask her again, but who knows? I think it could happen.

So not a “little, 7 pound 8 ounce” baby Ricky Bobby? Lol I could never do it, at least not as I would really want to - babyish t-shirt and just an ABDL printed diaper. Cannot imagine trying to answer the question, “So where’d you get that adult diaper that looks like a baby diaper?”

Came here to say that when I really want to feel babyish when diapered, I’ll watch Rugrats
