I have never had night time bladder control, as a toddler I progressed from nappies to pullups but I had too many leaks with those as I tend to sleep on my side. Mum bought me several types of adult all in on incontinece pads (basically disposable nappies) most of these did their job, but due to me being worried about envioromental issues I now wear terry nappies and plastic pants. The only time I wear disposable nappies is when I go on holiday, and I do wear KOTEX night time sanitary towels in my
knickers during the day for my little daytime leaks.
My mum has never treated me like a baby except from when I was one, I have been putting my own nappies on from the age of about 10, I did have to wear nappies during the day when I was ill with chest infections as when ever I coughed I would wet myself
A couple of times I came home from school to se my mum had put washing on the clothes line and 3 or 4 freshly laundered nappies would be flapping in the wind

along with a few pairs of plastic pants

Only my imediate family know so I didn't want all the neighbours knowing aswell

Hay holly

Hello Rosi
You say you are 13 and still constantly in nappies, don't you think you are getting a bit too old to be changed by your Mum. I have been sorting myself out since I was around 10 years old I'd hate my Mum to see my private parts now. Obviously she does see me in a nappy sometimes but thats all and she washes them for me and buys all my plastic pants for me.
When I first tried terry nappies I had a real struggle to get them on properly and in the end Mum demonstated how I should do it with a face flannel and a doll. Apart from the occassional prick from my nappy pins I am an expert at putting a nappy on now. Just for a matter of interest which part of the country do you live I live in the south west.
I don't see anything wrong with that if she is happy with her mum changing her and her mum is also happy it isn't a problem.
hay holly yeah, iam 13. Everyday i wake up, i prey iam dry, but asuall my nappy is wet tru. I wud do anything for it to stop rite nw..iam still wearing nappies for day time,aswell as bedtime due to my problem. sumtimes i get really dwn and upset, as babies wear nappies day nd nite, nt a 13yr old.
do u ever feel dwn, as your still wearing nappies to bed at 17.
me and my mum hav never seen it, as iam to old to hav my nappies put on by her. my mum has always changd my nappies, its justd a routine, she never makes it a issue, whn ive hd a accidnt, i justd tell her, it only tkes a couple of minutes to change my nappy as i wear disposables.
My mum is very careing and understanding twards my problem, and never treats me as a baby., but says its better to hav a wet nappy, thn having wet
knickers and clothes, whre people can see ive hd an accidnt
I justd wish people cud undstand, tht wearing nappies doesnt mke u a freak., i justd see wearing thm, as normal underwear with extra surpport. I live north west.
speak soon. bye
