I am a boy, and 15. I have now been wearing diapers for almost 5 months, and for last few weeks with school closed down we are both at home all the time and I am in the diapers night and day all the time. When we did they daytime diapers before it was because I fell asleep on the couch and wet, it was only on the weekend. Now my mom says it's easier to just have me in diapers all the time and don't have to worry and they are for just in case I would have an accident. When I tell her I have to go I can use the bathroom. I know you said before it doesn't matter size and brand but when I look at these Pampers they have pictures like big bird and elmo on them front and back and because they are 12 hour night ones they are thick and I know they are for a baby. Mom says they work good for me, no leaks and cheaper to buy, she gets the big boxes of diapers for me. Mom says no one else sees the diapers other than her and I. She just thinks these are the best diapers for me and said it doesn't matter if they are for a baby or not, that's why she bought those ConverUps for me so then they are for teens.

Hi guest. I think with bed wetting and occasional daytime accidents the most important thing is how they fit and work if your not having problems with the diapers leaking they are the right choice for you. I can understand your concern about the pictures on the diapers but with being 15 i would think the size and fit would be for older kids but unfortunately they still put the pictures for younger kids on them. It's great your mom has got the coverups for you shows she understands about you being concerned about what the pictures are. I know bed wetting alone is a lot to deal with but like your mom said if it is just you and her that sees them it's not so bad. If you have had only one accident during the day getting use to being diapered all the time must be difficult. I guess with no school if you are sleeping more during the day the diapers are the best option. With the cost of diapers and possibly even having problems to get diapers with the corona-virus causing some shortages it might be best to just stick with what works good for you. Hopefully you can adjust to wearing them and not worry about the pictures with just you and your mom at home what they look like isn't important maybe it will just take some time to get use to them. Hopefully with the some time to adjust you learn to not worry about it and just decide the coverups aren't needed all that matters is your bed stays dry and no leaks. With the stress of how things have changed and trying to stay safe try not to worry about the daytime accidents or what's on the diapers the most important thing is your health and safety and your families.

I am a girl,14,and boy crazy! I have been caught several times with a boy in my room by my parents and even tho nothing happened,they dont trust me,so i have to wear cloth diapers and plastic pants every so often.Yesterday,i had to wear them under my easter dress to "prevent" me from wanting to fool around with the neighbor boy! It was embarrassing being seen by my cousins at our easter gathering and having the cloth diapers and plastic pants under my dress!

That is totally wrong! If you had only one small incident it isn't your fault, and they don't have a right to force you to wear diapers!
Talk to a school counsellor and let it speak with your parents because of this ridiculous punishment. They must understand that you are feeling uncomfortable now. And if they won't hear you out, they must talk to a person who is first handedly included into school system. Stay strong!

I have asked my mom a number of times about different diapers, we looked at Huggies and Luvs and some other ones and I guess all the companies do the same thing and put pictures like that on the diaper. My aunt came over with a pair boxer underwear to show me that they had Big Bird on them, she said they make them as "Fun" underwear. When my aunt was over my cousin was with her and my mom must have told her about my diapers, because both of them knew. I asked my mom and she said she had told her awhile ago trying to find out what she thought would be best. She also said if the diapers are going to be for a while that they would have found out anyway. Do you think because they are moms they don't think that the diapers are a big deal? My aunt and cousin (she is 10) have now both seen me in my diapers. I have had some diaper rash and mom now has some Sensitive Baby Wipes and she had to use some of this Desitin cream, and we also have a Johnson's Cornstarch powder. Because of this mom has started changing diapers on me laying down on the floor or bed while she is doing this since I have the rash, when she first did this my aunt was there and both were looking at the rash to see if they thought it was diaper rash, as my mom was changing the diaper, my aunt was talking with her and when it was done and I sat up from the floor my cousin was standing at the bedroom door. She somewhat seen me having the diaper changed and did see me in only a diaper. It doesn't seem to be a big deal to any of them, do you think girls are just used to this with diapers. I later said something to my mom and she said that later this summer we will be at my aunts for some visits/vacation and they would have seen my diapers anyway. I guess it just seems like a big deal to me and everyone else is like it's just a diaper.

Needing help with diaper changes and having relatives know about your bed wetting is a lot to deal with. Your original post you said your a 15 year old boy so I think wanting your mom to be a bit more discrete is understandable. Your mom and aunt checking your rash and diapering you must have been awkward to say the least. I think asking to close the door is something you should do your ten year old cousin should not be watching you getting diapered. I think for moms and most girls diapers aren't much of an issue but your a boy and the one wearing them so they should try to make things as easy as possible for you. With staying at your cousins hiding the diapers and bed wetting would be almost impossible so honestly them all knowing it ends up being less stressful for you because you don't have to try and hide it from them. I think asking your mom to do changes in a private with the door closed is something you should do. Your a boy and being diapered and seen by others is embarrassing so asking to do it in private is fine. For the designs on the diapers the boxers or the covers is a good idea if it makes you feel more comfortable. I think for most people they don't realize how much bed wetting is to deal with for teens it is not your fault that it happens but having others know or being seen having changes done and being seen in just diapers is hard to get use to. Maybe now that your cousins know about your bed wetting it will help to put your mind at ease just try to enjoy your visits and don't let your bed wetting problems stress you out. Your family will know you can't help it and hopefully they won't care about it. Hopefully one day you grow out of bed wetting it might take awhile but for now the diapers are the best way to manage the problem.

Yes at my aunts now until the end of July, I am in a separate room with an airbed setup for me, I guess this is so a mattress wouldn't get ruined if wet. So on the dresser is a box of diapers, the wipes and cream and powder. I did ask my mom about this just being us but my aunt does change diaper also when mom isn't around. Also said I was upset about my cousin seeing me get diaper changed, so they are trying to make sure she goes to another room when this happens. She still sees the diapers but not me getting changed. So it is not easy with doing this but my mom said she thinks I am doing better with getting used to wearing the diapers. She says she knows this is hard for me but said it is still the best we can do for right now. It still feels weird wearing the diapers all the time and they fit different, yo can always tell you have them on. The diapers are thick in the middle of them and then how they are around your legs, mom said they need to be snug so they don't leak and a little thicker will hold more. They do say this 12 hours on them and mom says that's good. I guess is still some of getting used to wearing them. Don't know why if the company knows the diapers are for a "older" kid why they have the pictures and my aunt says it helps sales on the diapers if the kids likes them. My aunt said the most important this is the diapers don't leak and they are comfortable for me to wear.

It's good you have your own room and you keep the supplies you need in there. As far as your aunt doing changes when your mom is gone can't really be helped so main thing is you get changes done when you need them. It's good you asked about your cousin she doesn't need to be around when you get changed. Are you wearing the 12 hour heavy duty diapers during the day?
Have you had a lot of problems with daytime accidents lately just wondering if you only have had a couple of accidents if it would be better to wear a pull up during the day. That way when you need to pee it's easier for you to use the toilet and no help is needed. The 12 hours diapers are what is needed during the night but they are really bulky and noticeable for during the day. Yeah the main thing with the diapers is that they work well and don't leak the pictures on them can be hidden with a diaper cover or boxers. How often do you have daytime accidents now? Just wondering if you might be better off doing a pee schedule during the day you can get a watch that you set up to beep or vibrate to remind you to pee. If you normally need to pee every two hours just set the alarm for a bit less and it will remind you to use the bathroom. It all depends on how bad your daytime accidents are but if there is away to manage the daytime problem without 12 hour diapers that's better for you if pull ups and a watch alarm can keep you dry during the day it would be worth talking to your mom about trying them with a pee schedule.

Since when is it wrong to wear diapers? No one can hold on indefinitely, and you need to pee eventually. It's not always possible to make it to the toilet to pee. There could be any number of situations when that it'd be a great idea to wear diapers. I'm 47 yrs old, and I wish I were wearing.

I wear the same diapers for both night and day, they are a Pampers Swaddlers Overnight size 6 and we have those ConvertUps. Once we stopped using the pullups mom quit buying them, so I only have the diapers now. She said that the diapers hold more so if I have a bigger accident then they won't leak. The daytime accidents happen but not a lot, the biggest thing I notice is how thick the diaper is, it is just in the lower back part of the diaper, it is like it bumps out and then goes under between legs. There is also a difference in how a pullup goes around your leg and the diaper fits right up next to the inside of the top of your leg, my aunt told me the other part I asked about is called leg gathers/leak guards she said the diaper needs to have these and be snug around the bottom and legs so the diaper doesn't leak. So we don't have a schedule like that but more like they will check the diaper every 2 hours, all the do is squeeze it a bit to check and there is these 2 lines on the diaper that changes color if it's wet. I was told to tell them if I know it's wet so I can be changed, but I have done this and the they still check the diaper and at times say it's not that wet to change yet. Also they check the diaper at night when I'm sleeping, I guess they said just once a night. I woke up one night and my aunt was changing the diaper on me. I asked why she didn't wake me up and she said she has changed it before and I never did wake up, mom said she has done the same and that I am a deep sleeper. Do you know that there are better pullups? It would be good to have, right now all I do is tell them I need to use the bathroom and we take the diaper off and after I'm done the diaper is put back on. I will ask about the schedule, don't know if we can get the pullups or not or if we are only going to use diapers.

An overnight diaper would pretty warm during the day in the summer along with being much harder to conceal. If you did a search for teen pull ups you could find a pull up to wear during the day that might work better for you the bed wetting store also has a selection of diapers for night and day use. I guess it depends what your comfortable with if you don't need diapers that are easier to hide during the day the Pampers work fine. Yeah the diaper needs to be on right to prevent leaks so needing help is something that is hard to avoid. Being 15 it can be awkward to be diapered by others but it sounds like your dealing with that ok and your comfortable with your mom and aunt doing changes. Your at your aunt's for the month so it's understandable your mom can't do every change. If you plan on swimming this summer you can buy swim diapers or swimsuits online with a diaper in them not an issue at the lake but a public pool you would need protection in case of an accident. See what your mom thinks about a schedule you can do it and still wear the diaper at first until you see how it works for you. Keep track of how often you pee and how long between each pee during the day and if you can last 2 hours with no accident then maybe start with reminders to pee every two hours to see if you stay dry.

Yes I do notice the diapers are warm to wear now, they have been using 2 different things one is a Johnson Baby Powder and says Pure Cornstarch, Lavender and Chamomile the other says Aloe and Vitamin E. We have some other stuff too I don't know much about it all but there are wipes and some different creams. Don't know but I guess they buy a few things at different times, my aunt just bought a changing pad, she said it is for diaper changes so no mess gets on anything, it just kind of fits under me when they change a diaper. It does seem like most everything they buy says "baby" on it so I asked about that and my aunt said it's better and softer for the skin and also easier to find sale prices on. Also see we now have the boxes of diapers instead of a package, I was told that is with the cheaper price too. So the diaper does stick out a bit, if I am wearing some sport shorts it's like you can see the diaper shape, so I wear a long loose shirt so you can't see it then. Also did notice under blue jeans you can't really tell. I look at a mirror to see if I can see it or not. So we are talking about a schedule like that, I still have to wear the diaper for just in case but we are seeing how it goes. I understand my aunt is worried about her couch, carpet and stuff so mom did say we would have the diapers on all the time while we are staying there.
