Diapers and the public.

How many of us feel everyone can hear our diaper tell tail noises? Do we also think every young Mom or experienced Caregiver knows at a glance about our diapered condition?

I had a big surprise at the Medical Supply Store the other day while shopping for new diapers. The Young Lady at a glance told me I was wearing Abriform diapers. I blushed and she tried to console my embarrassment at the moment. Her words did not help much with the turn on I had going on, I was basically caught in diapers. Her words were in the nature of, don't worry I am a professional and fit a lot of people into incontinence products. The same old professional demeanor never to call them diapers. She was very good and showed me all that was new and even asked if I would like some samples. Yes free diapers you got to like that, and I loved being caught too.

Funny how most in the medical field or supply know not to call them diapers, at l;east in front of the paitent. But there are a few goofballs ahemm( one nurse) that seem to not think it necasary to call them other but by their name. And yes free diapers kick major ass. If more people realized its very easy to get free samples from medical supply stores they would ditch the drugstores who dont give a crap.

The Nurse that comes in to help my wife calls them "Pull Ups."

Whatever they call them, you have to love that feeling you get when they are about to change your diapers. Now you just lay back and I will make you feel all better with dry pants. As she stands over you with a dry diaper in one hand and the baby wipes in the other.

Never been caught at least nobody ever confronted me about it. though i did have a woman ask a pharmacist at walgreens about diapers, and i ended up answering her question instead of the pharmacy tech lol. didn't give me a strange look or anything just said thank you.

Yes, I know the feeling. I was in a WallMart store a short time ago and asked an associate working in that section about some new products they were offering marketed for women. Waste of time as I already knew more about the product than what was offered, some of which was misleading as well. I don;t think the clerks in these discount stores really care much about the benefits of incon products, even as they seem to sell a lot of them?

I was thinking the same thing just the other day. I was diapered and had workers at the house most of the day. I thought sure that the crinkle sound would be heard by someone. No one of course said anything; but to me it was noticable as I took them around the house. I know what to listen for; and that is the only thing I can think of that would not make the workers the wiser. They probably would never think that I was in DIAPERS. But the noise it makes sure makes me paranoid sometimes.

I think each and everyone of us would have loved the care my Aunt Nell gave myself and anyone else for that matter in diapers in her home. My Aunt would almost immediately remove any cover clothing I had on and have me in just my diapers and plastic pants. Mom would sit back and laugh at me as my Aunt would make an instant spectacle regardless of who was over at her house at the time. Dreaded be, if I was wet or she deemed my diaper needed changing because it would happen right where she had me at the time. I remember the crushing embarrassment as she would give my freshly diapered bottom a few firm pats and scoot me off to play with my cousins and sisters in only my diapers.

The crinkle is really not that noticeable to most people.

i had a buddy one day reach out a slap my diapered ass through my jeans and said " i thought so". HE thought he heard crinkling in the truck but wasn't sure ,so when we got out he slapped my ass.

Since the time when my pending surgery was first discussed (in '01), diapers were always called diapers - first by the surgical team nurse at the initial briefing and by all medical staff since. Subsequently, I have always called them by their real name of diapers, too, when mentioning my use of them to any family members and friends in the know. I see no shame in that.

As we know, there are so many adults in the world who are incontinent for whatever reasons and thereby have a normal need for using diapers and many other who are not incontinent, but need them anyway, including divers, military pilots, astronauts, et al. (some of the latter being among the most likely to use fancy alternate terminology).

Being incontinent, calling my diapers "diapers" was for me part of the acceptance that I would be in them for the rest of my life.

I have had comments made and over the 40 years have learned to walk away which is never easy. I can't care what others think. Reality is a wet diaper and for me it will never go away.

When I first started wearing nappies or pads during the day I was concious of them showing or someone hearing the tell tale rustle from my crotch but soon I realised no one really cares. I wear and wet my nappy daily and just get on with life. If someone has a problem with it then it is for them to deal with, Wearing a nappy or pad has to be better than having a wet crotch.

I only wear cloth diapers and of course plastic pants over them. In all my years of wearing diapers away from home and around other people, no one has ever even hinted that they heard something that tipped them off that I was wearing diapers. My plastic pants don't make enough noise to alert anyone. The only time I can make them noisy is if I take my trousers off and rub my plastic pants enough to make a little noise. I've worn PEVAs and even they aren't noisy enough to draw attention. The times someone has noticed or suspected I had diapers on were times when the top of my rubber pants and diapers could be seen over my pants, or the times I've leaked and had half moons on my backside. I do sometimes notice a pee odor from my diapers when I haven't change for sometime and I suspect that has been noticed. And a couple of times girls have notice the bulge between my legs when my diapers are swollen with pee and we were sitting at a table sharing drinks and touching each other.

Nobody ever hears my diapers crinkle

Nobody ever sees an actual diaper bulge

But

Nobody hears a crinkle because I can’t move.

Nobody sees a diaper bulge because my 500 pound wheelchair and restraints semi obscure and disguise its presence .

And

People see me and automatically expect I am diapered , nothing in my appearance can be seen and the person think “ gee wonder how this guy goes , maybe it’s a fancy standing wheelchair and he uses the urinal “

Hi there you all. I am wearing a diaper right now and I wear diapers all the time and wear diapers in Walmart and in other stores and I like to pee in them too.

I've often wondered this many times at beginning of wearing diapers. I'm currently trying cloth diapers again, I'm noticing my pee smell which bothers me.

I'll just stick to using my disposable diapers in public and being around others. I've never experienced smelling my pee until diaper changes.

Wearing diapers in public, under your everyday clothes, will really not draw any attention, unless your diaper outline is extremely pronounced! I have gone out diapered and worn shorts over my diapers. I had on some pretty loud plastic (rubber) pants over my thick cloth diaper. Ambient noise will muffle any diaper noise unless you walk by someone close in proximity. You would basically have to walk inside a library or some place like that to be heard!

Early on I was terrified of this. I basically assumed everyone was looking at me and had super hearing. In spite of this I was always bold and would wear to school, work, etc. No one has ever said a thing.

I did wonder a few times when I would buy diapers from a drugstore or medical supply store. One young lady gave me an enthusiastic endorsement of Tranquility diapers. She did use that word too. I assume she was sizing me up, but she never said anything about me potentially wearing.

I did find that a certain type of pants from Duluth Trading is pretty great at concealment. They are apparently made from fire hose material. They are rugged for work, do not easily soak through, and conceal noise. Basically the perfect pants for wearing diapers. I even feel reasonably confident when wearing obviously bulky stuff like Betterdry or certain ABDL brands. But Confidry and other ABDL brands are noisy enough that I can't help but notice them myself. So I only wear those at night in bed.

Hello, new to this website. I have worn diapers on and off for years meaning going back to 8-9 years old then really wearing a stolen cloth diaper from my niece whom I was babysitting and wet the diaper when I got home, I was hooked. I would buy baby diapers at the grocery store and sneak them in the house they were plastic-backed back then. Now fast forward I am 60 years old and hospitalized for COVID-19 and put into a coma about 3 weeks later they pulled me out of the coma shortly after I was wetting the bed and a nurse diapered me. When I was sent, I was sent with a handful of diapers and Pull-ups. I now almost 4 later have a monthly shipment of diapers and booster pads along with Pull-Ups sent to my house. I most days can make it to the toilet wearing Pull-Ups especially when I am at work. I do leak some in the Pull-Ups hence by the end of the day I usually change out of my Pull-ups and into my diapers and plastic pants. At night I must wear a diaper with a booster and plastic pants and by morning it is usually very wet. Now as for anyone noticing me wearing a pull-up or my diapers, nobody has said anything to my face. My wife says she cannot tell when I am wearing diapers or my pull-ups.

I’ve worn most of my life and from my experience unless you are only wearing just that no one is going to notice or assume that you’re wearing unless a trained eye knows what to look for. And most times if anyone did notice they are not going to say anything to you. At least never have to me. It was a common thing when I was younger when I was in school that a teacher or when I was outside with family from time to would periodically not very often would pull me aside and asked me to pull my pants up or tuck my shirt in cause it was showing so no one would see it. Pretty sure everyone knew anyways.

Only time I will wear diapers in public if I can find away to hide the bulge and limit the crinkle noises
