nappyboymids

The longest period since then

Well you've got to do things when they feel right, not for the sake of it.

I must say I'm jealous of you both - I'm pretty certain that had I not met my wife and had kids a few years ago, I'd be in the same place as you. I know before I married I was slowly realising that the natural progression of my love for nappies was that eventually I'd be wearing them 24/7 and if your experiments with stents had happened a few years earlier I'm sure I would have joined in. It is interesting to read about your gradual acceptance and habituation. The only thing I can compare it with is how about 15 years ago, when the Nuk Medic Pro became available and I finally was living without flatmates, I set out to become a pacifier-user, something that had eluded me all my life and something I had always had very mixed feelings about - lots of shame, guilt etc. After a couple of months of really forcing myself to sleep with it, I realised I wasn't forcing myself... and I was sleeping better and craving the pacifier. And six months later, fully hooked on sleeping with it (and using it quite a lot in the daytime) it was no longer something I felt I had to hide from people. I remained a completely "real" dummy (and thumb - that fallowed naturally) sucker for over a decade, and only quit when my kids were born. So I know that with a stent, with nappy 24/7 wearing, it wouldn't be long for it to feel so natural that it wasn't something I needed to hide!

Keep up the good work!
