kirababy Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 So wondering where/how you store your diapers and accessories? I have now acquired more stuff, and it does not fit into the two drawers in the dresser. What to do? There are ~8 large cloth diapers, a dozen or so baby cloth diaper stuffers, 6ish plastic panties, and a dozen outfits. Additionally, there are some disposables as well. I don't wear 24/7, but occasionally will indulge in a full weekend, necessitating the quantities on hand. My wife is fully aware, and supportive of this side of me, but we both are concerned about the increasing volume of supplies. Our house has a couple of extra bedrooms, but little in the way of furniture in those rooms. We also entertain somewhat frequently, and both feel that a chance discovery of my baby stuff would be detrimental. Ideas are welcomed. We both think a high chair and/or a crib would be a fun toy, but are really concerned about concealment of such a large item. The attic is an option, but would limit accessability, which is a negative. Thanks kira Link to comment
Guest Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Well, I store my bags of diapers in my closet. I keep the packs of wipes in there as well. The snap-lid container of wipes sits in the bathroom on the shelf above that useless porcelain thing, diaper rash ointment is either next to the wipes or in the medicine cabinet. My stuffed wolf stays on the futon. My binky is in my mouth or pocket, with the spare in the closet (don't have a spare right now). Sometimes the binky is on a table or my desk cause when in a diaper and t-shirt, I have no pockets. Baby bottles and sippy cups are in the kitchen cabinet with the other dishes. Link to comment
babylin Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 acquiring more stuff than one has secret storage space for was a lifelong problem with me, too. I guess the limited quantity helped immensely with the binge and purge cycles I went thru. Then I got married and bought a house and a few years later added a garage, with an attic, into which I had stored lockable footlockers with my growing collection. I outgrew that too. Along the way I had acquired a clam shell trailer for all the family's camping equipment when the kids were growing up. Now the camping stuff is in the garage attic and I've filled the camping trailer. When that has become full and overflowing, as a diaper lover and somewhat compulsive collector, I've then given away hundreds and hundreds of cloth baby diapers, baby blankets and plastic pants to St. Vincent or Goodwill, or Salvation Army. The trailer is full right now, too, but it's all my select grown-up size diapers and plastic pants and I've given up purging as I finally recognized that I have too much, more than I can use, and have almost stopped buying anything else.

Guest John_Q_Sample Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Locking metal cabinets in basement or garage, like your teacher had in school for supplies... they are only like $100 and anyone ever asks (which they won't) it's got pesticide or motor oil, old car parts, etc. in it.

Why are people so worried? Link to comment
Guest John_Q_Sample Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 From reading some of your posts you seem very out of the closet, diapered witch, and more power to ya for that... but some of just don't care to have others know what's going on in our lives in this department. There is a great chance for predjudice in the workplace and in some small towns you would be astrocized if people knew about your DL side... I really don't wanna be judged by people for something that is so small a part of me and so easily (or should I say commonly) misunderstood. Link to comment
dlbbyboy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 how about a blanket chest at the foot of your bed? they can be quite large and can easily be set up to be locked inconspicuosly? Link to comment
Three Rivers Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 They also make containers that fit very nicely under the bed. Link to comment
FunTime Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I've been trying to purchase a metal locking cabinet for this purpose, pretty much an office cabinet that locks. Containers are nice too, maybe even put things in a gym bag in a closet somewhere, few of those I don't think anyone will suspect. Link to comment
Sunshine2585 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Mine were in the bottom drawer of my chest of drawers. Now they are in a suitcase. And if necessary I can lock the suitcase, but I haven't needed to. Link to comment

Then he could do what I did to appease my mom when she was here (shew anted me to hide all my stuff). Just tack a towel or blankent so it covers a shelf or 2 in the closet. Link to comment
beallucanb Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I keep most of the diapers, plastic pants, stuffers, wipes, creams, in the bathroom towel closet. My sleepers, I keep in my bedrom closet, I don't have to hide from anyone, nobody lives here but me... Link to comment
kirababy Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 Some good ideas here. Does anyone have/use a crib, changing table, highchair or bouncer? if so, is it in plain sight, or stored away? Link to comment
Guest John_Q_Sample Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 As a DL who loves the whole humiliation aspect I would love to br forced to sit in my diaper in a crib or highchair while the girlfreind watched tv or went about her businness... but I digress... how about hiding the door to one of the extra rooms behind a bookcase (maybe on wheels)? It could be like your own little baby Batcave! Link to comment
Loveable_guy Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 We do seam to collect a ton of supplies don’t we? I’m married and yes she is very aware. My bedroom closet normally holds four or more packages of disposables along with several pairs of plastic pants. Moving to the second bathroom you’ll find more of the same. The real stash is in the finished basement drop ceiling, maybe another 10 packs of diapers pants and other toys. Don’t know what I’ll do if I ever have to move. Link to comment
Chad Smith Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 put all of it in a place where nobody ever goes, like the attic if you have one or in some drawer where you usually keep alot of junk and nobody ever bothers going through Link to comment
