LL Medico Diapers and More Bambino Diapers - ABDL Diaper Store

How did you discover the ABDL community at large/find yourself here?


Recommended Posts

Well Google wasn't really big back then so I'd have to say Yahoo. But I also saw an advertisement for wet set magazine in the back of an adult novel which really piqued my interest.

i remember i was in high school, and i think i looked up "adult diapers" on some search engine, either yahoo or google, i really don't remember, and it doesn't matter. and in the results was another site, adisc.com, and i found out there were other like-minded folk out there who were into diapers for the first time. after a few years on that site, i dug a little more and found this one! plus, i think adisc was more geared for minors or at least had minors on there at the time, and i was over 18, so i quietly left adisc and moved over to here! and here i am! 

also during that time of diaper discovery, i also found the sub-reddits, various other sites, several pay sites, videos, i think one or two other forums or at the very least sub sections of fetish forums (didn't join them), and online shops and suppliers. 

as a final thought, just thinking about it now, the community itself has grown drastically in the last 10-15 years! where 15 years ago, there were only perhaps a few niche/fetish suppliers for abdl clothing and paraphernalia, some medical supply places with meager offerings, and on some other *ahem* adult sites the choice of viewing media was really lacking. turn the clock to now, in my favorites alone, i have literally DOZENS of abdl suppliers saved, there are whole lines of diapers gears 100% towards our ilk. there are huge get-togethers of abdl folk all over the world now, and they're only growing in attendees! actual, physical, brick and mortar stores for strictly abdl's exist! the amount of places and things to go to and buy is light years beyond where it was at the turn of the century. will the abdl fetish/lifestyle ever be as "mainstream accepted" as say... bdsm (thanks to an infamous series of books and movies)? ehhh..... debatable, at best, right now. but it is growing! and it's amazing! :D

Always been interested in cartoons where diapers were mentioned, so eventually I tried looking up stuff. Imagine my surprise to find out there were other people interested in the things.

I honestly don't remember.

I knew OF ABDL people in a way I knew there were "sick freaks" who liked to wear diapers and dress up as babies - and I refused to accept I was part of it (I'll go ahead and think that CSI episode and Jerry Springer for that)

Even though I had my own computer that no one else used when I was a teenager. I NEVER looked anything up. I put the thoughts in the back of my mind that only came out in the dead of night - and I would feel guilty for that.

I know I was in my early 20s when I stumbled upon Daily Diapers and I stalked it for a good, probably 3 years before I joined - perhaps maybe even 4 years. I still didn't really accept myself when I lurked here, but it helped me become aware that not everyone was 'freaks' like on the shows I previous mentioned, that perhaps I wasn't as 'weird' as I originally thought.

It took me over 10 years to finally stopped being totally ashamed and disgusted at my fetish and instead embrace it and love it for all it's 'weirdness' :p

For me, There was no internet at the time, I came across an article in a porn "Letter Magazine" where it shared a story and then directed you to Infantae Press.  I purchased some material from them and in one article discussed the start of a new publication that was out called "DPF" (Diaper Pail Fraternity at the time) basically gay or bi sexual men. Once I joined discovered it was more than gay/bi people and since 1980 women began to join so eventually it was changed to Diaper Pail Friends.  about the mid 90's they started publishing on the internet, making connections with people there including chat rooms for abdl and tb's too.  Although there was an attempt to avoid the intermingling of the 2, it was not impossible to prevent it - the result was not very good.  They continued to encourage membership, created a links page of other websites publishing abdl content.  Eventually, by 2005, DPF stopped all publishing, which led to other websites attempting to fill the gap, such as this website and others.  

So that was my beginning.

I was surfing the net, I remember. But what my criteria were, I don't remember. I was probably wearing my naughty underwear that morning. I hadn't discovered adult diapers, yet. Eventually I found myself here. I lurked for a few months, and finally when I realized that I wasn't the only one, and that it wasn't just too weird to be believed, I signed up in Sept. '17. I've learned quite a bit just hanging out here.

I don’t remember how I got there, but when I was about 13 or 14 I found a website called Baby Brrr Adult Baby Nursery which was where I first heard the acronym ‘ABDL’ and first found out that there were other people like me into what I now knew to be called Adult Baby Diaper Lovers.

My first interaction with the wider ABDL community was on ADISC which I was given a badge of honor aka banned on and I migrated to a better forum I.E. Daily Diapers

 It was around 2015 when I seriously immersed myself into the ABDL community and dedicated a lot more time to it than I did before.

I found this site via a couple of google searches. I decided to actually join and become a member when I realized that my little side wasn't going to go away. I was then just like, "Hey, why don't I try and meet some other people who are also into this." Ergo, LittleTomás joined this site.

Hi everyone, for me I started wetting my pants again, then used terry cotton bath towels as diapers. Thought I was the only one doing this and thought maybe I was some kind of a pervert.

I got a computer this was way back in the70's, found the yahoo rooms and found the adult diaper rooms and was very surprised to find so many other males doing the same as I was wetting and wearing. The rest is history, love to wet and wear and be wet too. Smiles.

I tell you, the younger people these days have it so easy!  All they have to do is a Google search for adult diapers and they are gold!  That, plus the fact that adult diapers are everywhere, on TV, in all the stores and all over the internet.  It's so easy to get them and be influenced to wear them, along with the fact that kids these days are probably kept in diapers or Goodnites longer than kids 50 or 60 years ago based on the convenience of disposable diapers verses cloth and plastic pants.  Back when I was a teenager or in my 20's, there was no internet or home computer. People with this fetish thought they were alone, sicko's and the only one who liked wearing diapers.  If you were lucky, you might find a few diaper articles in porn or fetish magazines if you were old enough to buy one in an adult store.  I am one who also believes the advent of the internet and ease of finding adult diapers or fetish sites like this one is also one reason why there are more adult diaper companies and companies making better diapers, including for the AB/DL people.

 I've had a strong desire to wear diapers for as far back as I can remember and when I was around 14 I typed something along the lines of I like to wear diapers in to the search engine I was using I think it was either yahoo or Google I really don't remember all that well and all sorts of things about ABDL started popping up and then it hit me I wasn't insane or a freak there are others like me and shortly there after I accepted myself as an ABDL and said to myself its not hurting anything and it feels so natural it can't be wrong and I've lived nappily ever after ever since

When I was growing up there was no internet and I had no way of knowing there were lots of people that liked wetting as I did. I thought I was the only one.

I was home for the day watching the Sally Jesse Raphael show (Yep, that long ago before the Internet) and she had on as her guests "Adult Babies"  It amazed me because I had been wondering my whole life why I liked wearing diapers and was I the only one who wanted to dress like a baby.

Watching that show made me feel like I wasn't really a freak.  That there were others out there that thought like I did.  It wasn't until years later that I found DPF and after they closed, I found DailyDiapers.

Over the years I have upped my diaper wearing, my wardrobe and started buying better diapers.  I've created a few of my own baby accessories but still don't have the support of my husband.

The web became avaleable to the public in 1991

Well I believe I had my first computer was either the late 70's or early 80's, sorry my memory is not that good any more, I am sorry if I sound untrue in my write up.

Well I was well in my thirties when we’ve got our first computer that is over twenty one years ago now. For as long as I can remember I’ve been a diaper lover and only after we’ve got our first computer I learned I wasn’t the only one with my rather strange desire. We had a forum in the Netherlands for diaper lovers and adult babies but it wasn’t moderated nor maintained properly. After a while is found DPF but the owner died and soon after I found the site it closed down so for me it was back to the Dutch sites, they are still around but they s**k and are near dead. In one of my queries I found Daily Diapers and joined right away, I learned a lot and here you can discuss and start topics just about everything. In the Netherlands for instance you can’t talk about the fact that I have a desire to be incontinent nor about catheters and stent`s. Daily Diapers rock`s.
