Does anyone remember the last diapers they wore as a child?

I came across this article in another website recently and it actually got me thinking about my past as I was in diapers or nappies right from birth until the age of 5 and a half or 6.

And I was wondering if anyone still remembers the type and brand of the diapers they wore as a child because as you know memories can and do become less reliable in older years.

I myself have written a awnser to a similar question on qora.com and or other websites including this one.

Yours sincerely

I was put back in diapers around 6 and wore until 10. At night (and the odd day occasion). All I can remember is that they were white cloth diapers and frosted plastic pants. I don't know the brand of either. There are pictures of me wearing them. About as basic as you can get, I think.

I wore diapers to bed until I was about 10 y/o for my bed wetting. This would have been in the late 60s to early 70s. All I remember about the diapers was they were cloth with plastic panties. I remember the plastic panties were either white of blue in color.

I cannot remember when as a child wearing diapers. iI know it was was cloth diapers and plastic pants, I dont even know if they had disposable diapers back then. Im sure I was potty trained at a normal age.

I wore diapers to bed till I was four, maybe more. I remember a lot of times being diapered, but unfortunately I don't remember the last one. It's a bit strange since I remember *almost everything * and this subject is very important to me. Anyway, brain things...

I was in cloth diaper for yrs last wet the bed at 13yr. Then dry for several yrs but when my wetting came back in mid 50's was back in them.

Anytime I was in diapers for any length of time they were cloth with diaper pins and plastic pants. I was 16 when Mom finally stopped putting Me in diapers. Her methods of trying to cure my diaper fetish stopped at that point in my life. Diapers were all up to me and did not stop. A year later I moved into my own place with 6 dozen different types of cloth diapers. 50 years later I am still in diapers.

My two younger sisters and I all wore cloth diapers and rubber pants because that was what mom used. I don't believe disposables were around at the time. I continued to be diapered at night by mom because I wet my bed until I was 17, however during puberty I started to play with myself and from then on I enjoyed being diapered and wetting my diapers and getting off. At some point mom began to suspect that I was enjoying myself too much when she clean and powdered me and pinned on a fresh diaper every night and began to encourage me to stop wetting my diapers at night. I'm not sure if she understood the idea of a diaper fetish, but she was always supportive, loving and reassuring even as she continued to diaper me. I did stop wetting on my own before I graduated from high school and went off to university but the desire to wear diapers and wet them has stayed with me all my life.

Yes I do remember the last diapers I was made to wear. They were 27x27 " Birdseye flat diapers. They were the same ones I wore as a baby. Mom had stashed them away, just in case another baby came along. Well that never happened, but I did start to wet the bed at age 5 . It was natural to go and get the old diapers out of the cedar chest and put me back in them. After all, if you wet, you wear diapers! The baby pants didn't fit but Gerber made some that did. I wore them for a few years at night. It is hard not to remember almost exactly what they were. So diapers where are you now. Way down under in the landfill, I guess.

Birdseye and Gerber plastic pants. I was in diaper punishment for the day back when I was about 5 or 6

I was bedwetter until 7/8 years old. For me it was terry nappies folded kite fashion usually two which was quite bulky and made me waddle a bit they where always covered with a pair of plastic baby pants

Standard square white terry-towelling nappies folded into a kite-shape, pinned up with a safety-pin on each side and then plastic pants over the top - usually clear or semi-transparent white. I did wear DryNites after I stopped wearing these nappies but I don't count them as “nappies”.

Every picture Inhave ever seen of me as a child up to at least age 3 or 4 has been in Pampers. Pampers was all that were put on me. Crinkling tapes.

It was defiantly pampers for me too. All the way up to 5. Big crinkly plastic backed pampers from the early 80’s.

I don’t feel like they were ever well hidden under my cloths. Up until I was older I really didn’t think about it. When I was 4 and older though, I felt a little self conscious. I knew I was to old for diapers.

I was constantly pulling up my pants and pulling down my shirt in the back. It was a losing battle. I was a skinny kid and my diaper made my pants bulge way out. also a telltale sign was the loud crinkling when I moved. those plastic backed diapers were really loud. It sounded like there was a plastic bag in my pants.

There aren’t too many pictures of me as a child that you can blatantly tell I’m diapered though. Most I’m wearing pants or shorts. A few are pretty obvious though.

I was looking through old photos with my wife and we saw one like that. It was prob from right before I potty trained. I appear to be around 5 years old. I have on shorts, no shirt and my diaper is hanging way out of my waistband. My wife just pointed at that one and said wow, really? Kind of embarrassing.

IM old so was cloth and rubber pants (was 10 years old and in shriners hosp after feet surgery was kept in diapers till I learned to walk after several surgeries )

I am going to guess that I was about to come up to my second birthday and for some reason had the most awful Nappy rash caused by the Rubber pants I was wearing as I recall mum sticking her fingers in the leg openings and then took them off leaving me in what must have been a dry terry Nappy and a blistered right leg, I think the next day I was in proper underwear and that pretty much was the end of Nappies and Rubber pants.

I have very little memory of all those long years ago but vividly remember it was my right leg that was blistered and very sore from the rubbing of the Rubber pants, the Rubber pants were a brown/tan colour and were quite thick.

I don't actually remember my original diaper- wearing years, as they ended in the 1960's when I was 2 ish, i guess. But I do know that my bottom was put into Curity prefolds, and whatever plastic pants we had at the time, I assume mostly Gerber's. I know this because when I was about 9, i found a whole bag of them that was stuffed in the back of a closet .

I had two older sibling's we are all two years apart so as one grew out of diapers another was born.

Disposables weren't available let alone popular or cost effective ,so my cloth diapers were well broken in for me .

I don't know the brand of diaper ,I am absolutely positive the pants were Gerber.

We also had some boillable rubber pants ( boilable rubber is some seriously hard wearing stuff,I have some red rubber Rob Nell boilable catheters that are ancient from when first started catching, they have been boiled hundreds of times and are still like new )after I grew out of using them they lived on a shelf behind the bathroom door. I have no idea what happened to them ( or should I say they probably went in the trash.with all the other having children you hate property from my teddy bear Fred to the diapers we used ,he didnt care sold the house and disappeared in 1982,never to be seen again ,I found him in the death index in 2006 ,I havent shed a tear because the man I know was just a facade ,so my mom would marry him )

Never saw the man happier than when he lost custody and all parental rights for abuse.

I was about 7 almost 8 when I last wore an actual diaper, I had issues with what my doctor was calling fecal incontinence, mostly bowel spasms so it wasn't a common thing for me to have a diaper to wear “just in case” I had an accident (which i didn't most of the time I didn't even have accidents, just was lazy and wet them though I did had a genuine issue with controlling my bowels) but I remember exactly the brand was LUVS and distinctively remember they had Barney the dinosaur on them and they were plastic backed. My parents stopped buying them for me after I was pretty much just wet 100% of the time and not messy as I was only wearing them for messing.

Might be reason I wear from time to time today.

Okay, I don't remember the brand I wore as a child because I didn't care. It was probably Huggies or Pampers - but it was always disposable. My brother and sister wore disposable too. I was out of them at age 2 ½ as I imagine most kids are. 2 seems to be the average potty training age. I developed a diaper fetish after researching diaper discipline. I bought some Depends but they're so thin that the punishment aspect didn't really happen. I'd have to wear 4 or more to really feel like wearing a diaper was a punishment. When I am sessioning with my Mistress, she has put me in diapers twice because I expressed an interest in them and therefore, she said I made her want to do a mother/toddler role play with me. I don't wear diapers regularly and I do see them as great punishment tool.

I remember being cloth diapered as an older toddler. The only time I was made to wear when older was when I was 7 Years old and we went on vacation, my parents surprised me with a diaper for my bedwetting. It was an all in one that snapped on, I suspect they obtained through Sears.

I think my last nappy was the same as most of the others, a flat cloth terry nappy (a square of towelling material) pinned on, covered by plastic pants

I think my last (cloth) diaper, was probably at about 3 years old, diapers for nighttime. I do have memories, of being put in my night diaper. I think, they were Curity prefold. My plastic pants, were probably Gerber. I remember them being white, and Gerber were sold all over in the early mid 60’s. I remember my mom using my cloth diapers, as cleaning rags later on. I’m pretty sure, all my plastic pants got thrown away, as I never found, or saw any after 3, possibly 4 years old. I do remember, running through the house once, with my plastic pants on head, and yelling,, RUBBER PANTS, RUBBER PANTS! Mom called them rubber pants, even though they were plastic then.

I grew up before disposable diapers were readily available. My mother used Curity cloth diapers, 40"x21" for most of my childhood, until I stopped wetting my bed when I was nearly 18. She diapered me every night and often had me wear diapers when we went out on longer car rides or places like the movies, church, visiting relatives. I wore plastic panties, usually Gerbers toddler large which still fit. So when I finished college and grad school, left home for good, mom boxed all my old Curity diapers and plastic panties and gave them to me in case I decided to wear diapers again. She knew I was felt more comfortable and secure when I had diapers on even though I didn't need them. So when I resumed wearing diapers again, I wore my old Curity diapers that I had worn all through my childhood. They remained my go to diapers and plastic panties until I both outgrew them and disposables more or less took all the shelf space in stores and cloth diapers disappeared.

My younger brother had Pampers XL which were the last ones he got before he just stopped wearing diapers. I didn't use them as a baby, but did as an 8 or 9 year old on the down low, so I thought. My parents probably knew, I wasn't very slick. Those were the last ones he and by extension I wore until Goodnites came out.

Yes but vaguely, I do rmember mom with diaper pins in hew mouth. I know they were clorh diapers as this was 1948-1951.

Also remember when my mother's friend was suprised that at 3 yrs I was still in diapers!

No rubber diaper cover /pants. Mom used the same type of plastic bags used today for fruits & veggies, she cut the corneers for my legs. I do the same but using tall kitchen bags with holes cut for my legs!!

Bigbabyhusband in the era you are talking about. potty training was thought to done around 2, 2 1/2 at the latest. So yes you were late but the day's standards. It was often done by very strict measures.

I was diapered in the 1950s until the age of eight. It was always with Curity brand 20 x 40 cloth. and Gerber, pull-on plastic pants which we called rubber pants. My diaper pins were always steel. But I was aware of the plastic ones that have colors and even ducks and other animals on them. I would see other babies getting diapered with those and wanted them, but never had them. I think I may have asked for them at once, and was told that they were for babies and I was a big boy. That was typical of the mind games. My mom would play with me having me confused between me and a big boy and a baby. I don’t know how the pins would make a difference if I was wearing diapers and rubber pants. Could the pins have been more embarrassing?

When I was older, around seven or eight, and toilet training was semi-successful, I would sometimes wear thick cloth training pants. I don’t know the brand, but my mom would often snap Gerber pants on over them when we were out. My usual rubber pants were pull-on, but the snap-on were convenient for putting on when we were out. My mom would pull down my pants, snap the rubber pants over my trainers and pull up my pants and we’re off to our errands.

I don't really remember. It was mid 70's so I know it was cloth diapers and rubber pants. Usually before bed.

Kimbies disposable diapers back in 1972. Curity cloth diapers as a baby. 1972 was put back in diapers
