AITAH? Baby has poopy diaper at daycare drop-off
Hi, So I have a 18 month old that started daycare recently. I don't know why but almost every day she poops while we are on our way to her daycare. I have tried everything I can think of, I wake up extra early, I feed her milk twice hoping it will trigger her bowels (when she was a younger baby milk used to make her go). I do all the morning routine, feed her, fix her hair, brush her teeth, I literally wait until the last minute to change her diaper before we drive, but, its like she is waiting to be in the car to make a deuce.. I have 2 kids and I am usually dropping them off back to back in the morning, I am usually rushing, and my small sedan has two car seats, so I don't really have much time or space to change the baby in the car when we get to her little school. They do have diapers and wipes and have a changing table inside so I feel like it is more comfortable for the baby to have her diaper changed inside. I have apologized twice to her teacher when I drop her off with a poopy diaper but I can tell she is not too happy about it. AITA? Edit to add: I provide all the diapers and wipes that my daughter uses, this is not about the diapers. Thanks for all the feedback, I will talk to the teacher to make sure they will allow me to use their changing table. UPDATE: I never imagined an update would be necessary, but I got so many comments and I can't possibly reply to all.. While this experience has been eye-opening, and I fully accept your consensus/logic, I will add some more details because a couple of things were taken out of context; -I am in the PNW so rain does not always allow to use the trunk to change my child, I should have specified that. - My baby started daycare 3 weeks ago. It happened once during the fist week, she had 2 poopy diapers last week and 2 poopy diapers this week.. So, while it is not literally happening every day, it has happened often enough. Obviously if I brought up this issue here (and took a beating from the internet) is because I am genuinely preoccupied about this. -Because my baby just started daycare, the first week the teachers were encouraging a quick drop off because she was crying every day, the first time it happened I apologized and mentioned I had literally just changed her diaper before leaving home, but the teacher prioritized the quick drop-off to immediately soothe the baby, she did not say much else. -This also happens to be a Montessori school, so, they have this routine where kids change into their inside shoes at the entrance, and put their snacks away by themselves, parents are encouraged to leave as soon as possible. They do not serve breakfast at school, but they like to keep a consistent routine. It never crossed my mind that I might be allowed to go inside to use their table. I also imagined they don't want our muddy boots going inside the classroom. -My older kid's school is 20 minutes away and school starts at a different time. When we drop off the baby, the older child walks to the door with me to drop-off little sister. Anyway for the real Update: I talked to the teacher today during pickup time. She told me we are not allowed to go inside the facilities since the changing table is adjacent to the toddlers toilets and their policy does not allow it. This used to be a school for older kids so they are still updating the building and they plan to add a changing table to the public restrooms soon, but in the mean time, she understands it is tricky to change the baby in the car, and they don't want cars staying too long since they have limited parking spots. She did say many kids poop as soon as they walk through the door and these things happen. Start of they day is obviously busy for them, and she appreciates my concern. But again, many comments here have helped me reflect about things I can do better, and if the weather allows I will change the baby in the front seat of my car, and of course I will use the baby changing station once it is ready in the bathroom. Thanks also to the few empathetic people, especially the daycare workers that replied in the comments. Somebody recommended to cross-post to r/ECEProfessionals, and maybe I should have gone there in the first place, but I have already got plenty of feedback here.. submitted by /u/PhilosopherEvery5083 to r/AITAH [link] [comments]

I Found diapers in my gf's bedroom
Hi everyone, I need some advise! So I'm 17M and my girlfriend is 16F. We've been together for almost 4 months now. Everything is going very well between us and I feel like we can tell everything to eahother. Last week I was in my girlfriends bedroom while she was downstairs for a minute. I noticed my phone needed to charge so I decided to use her charger. I knew it was in one of the drawers in her bedroom but I didn't know which one. I opened a few drawers and I still don't really understand what I found. The drawer was filled with diapers. A few of those girls pull ups for bedwetting like my younger sister still wears but also a lot of those big adult diaper ones with tapes. I really don't know what to think about it cause she never told me anything about it before. I also already slept with her 2 times and she wasn't wearing a diaper for sure so I don't think she wets the bed or something. What should I do? Should I confront her with it? And what could it be, cause I really have no clue at all what to think of this. Update: I asked her about it. It is indeed for bedwetting. She said she still wets the bed sometimes. At first she was too scared to tell me. The 2 times we slept together, she risked it and was lucky. We talked about it for over an hour and are completely on the same line now. Yesterday, she slept with me, while wearing her diaper. Thanks everyone who gave helpful advice! submitted by /u/MeetingFrequent4831 to r/teenagers [link] [comments]

DIAPER UPDATE: My brother started incontinence training me?
following on from my last post, I've been diligently letting my older brother change my diapers like "all trans girls do Nona". every time I soil myself I've diligently waited to see my brother to let him change me, even if it means waiting hours with a dirty diaper. but I'm starting to worry if something is happening that isn't normal? he's starting to train me to "go whenever I need to", so if I need to poop or pee (he says I'm not allowed to swear anymore)... apparently this is an important part of my transition and all trans girls do this? but something seems really fishy to me guys :((( sometimes I'm spending all day at work with a soiled diaper now, unable to see my brother until I'm home. it's really embarrassing at sometimes people can smell it. but my brother seems so proud of me? and honestly I can't betray the loving smile on his face every time I tell him I went potty. 4t4 is this okay and normal for a trans girl with an older brother? submitted by /u/wiwikyn to r/4tran4 [link] [comments]

My 16 year old sister wears diapers
My sister is 16 years old and wears diapers. Now obviously she doesn’t wear them all day but she wears them at night and it is SO ANNOYING. She seems to not mind at all and never takes them off unless my parents say something. I’m not talking about pull ups either I’m talking about full on diapers, but obviously she doesn’t ever use them during the day, but when she doesn’t take them off and she has a diaper on she’s literally walking around in a dirty diaper. She only pees in her diaper because the other one would just be insane. It’s just annoying to have to deal with and my parents don’t seem to care and it doesn’t seem like it’s changing anytime soon, the only thing time it would change according to my mom is when she leaves for college. submitted by /u/Neither_Durian_7760 to r/offmychest [link] [comments]

First time dad, up past midnight trying to learn about non-toxic diapers. Saving info as I go along to a quick website with a table on moderatelygranolaguide.softr.app if anyone looking for information finds this useful. I will add data as I go along. I think after diapers, I'll do wipes and clothes. If anyone taking a look can point out a brand I've missed or incorrect info I would appreciate it. I've only done TCF ones, but if you guys think ECF would be useful too? I'll add those as well and just add a filter tag. Please let me know if there's anything else I could add that might be useful to everyone here. This subreddit has been a great resource for me, so thank you all submitted by

Found diapers hidden in my son’s room - feeling confused and worried
This feels hard to write about, but I’m hoping someone out there has been in a similar situation or might have some advice to share. I’m a single mom to three boys - 2.5 years, 5 years, and 11 years old. My five-year-old has autism and is not potty trained yet. A few weeks ago I found diapers belonging to my five-year-old, hidden in my oldest son's room. The first time, it was a clean, but used diaper tucked under the mattress. A few days later, I found several used diapers in a plastic bag hidden inside his desk. I don’t know how long this has been going on. I confronted him both times. The first time, he completely broke down. He was terrified I would tell someone and said he didn’t really know why he took the diaper - just that it made him feel safer and more secure when he had it on. At first, I thought maybe the bedwetting had come back. When he was younger, he struggled with staying dry at night, and it wasn’t until he was nearly eight that he was able to stop using nighttime diapers. After his dad and I separated a few years ago, the bedwetting unfortunately returned for a period, and he had to start wearing them again. It was something he felt deeply ashamed of and didn’t want anyone to know about, but at the same time, it seemed like the best solution for him at the time. We tried to stay calm and didn’t push him, and eventually it got better. The second time I brought it up, he got really angry. He accused me of snooping and yelled at me. I tried to stay calm and explained that I wasn’t mad, just worried and trying to understand. I gently asked if he might rather talk to someone else if it felt hard to talk to me. That made him even more upset. He said he hated me and a bunch of other things before running to his room and slamming the door. After that, I wrote him a note and slipped it under his door. I wanted him to know that I wasn’t angry, just concerned. I told him I loved him and that he didn’t have to feel weird or ashamed. In the note, I suggested, maybe a bit awkwardly, I don’t know, that we could go to the store so he could get his own diapers instead of taking his little brother’s. The next morning, he came up to me quietly and carefully and said he was sorry. He didn’t say much more, but I told him it was okay and that I was there if he ever wanted to talk. We ended up going to the store together, and he picked out a pack of diapers himself. Since then, I’ve noticed that he sometimes wears a diaper in the evening while lying on the couch watching TV before bed. I’ve let him manage it on his own, but at the same time, I can’t help but worry that something isn’t right. Several mornings I’ve clearly seen that the diaper is wet when he comes downstairs and lies on the couch. Maybe it is bedwetting again, maybe it’s something else. I just know I don’t want to pressure him, but I can’t stop being concerned. I’ve tried talking to him about it a few times, but he won’t open up. He says he doesn’t wet the bed and that I should stop nagging. That makes me even more unsure, because if it’s not medical, then what is it? He doesn’t want to talk to anyone about it, and I’ve told him he doesn’t have to if he’s not ready. When he started school, he used to get really anxious in the mornings and complain about stomachaches. He had to go sit on the toilet for a long time before he could leave for school. I brought it up with his doctor and the school staff, and things got better over time. But that anxiety still shows up now and then, especially when we’re going on longer car rides. Then he’ll start with long bathroom trips again and sit in the car complaining about tummy aches. I don’t know if that’s related to the other thing or something separate. I try to be there for him without judging, but honestly, I feel pretty lost. Is this something that will pass on its own? Or is he carrying something inside that I just haven’t been able to understand yet?Has anyone gone through something similar with their child? I’d really appreciate any thoughts or experiences you’re willing to share. submitted by /u/RoadCake to r/Advice [link] [comments]

AITA for refusing to change someone's baby's diaper?
My wife and I have been married 10+ years and have a few kids. SIL and her husband had a baby 2 years ago. No major complaints - they just tend to ask for people to do stuff that I would think they'd do themselves. They'll come over our house (they live an hour away) and they'll ask ahead of time if we have their kid's favorite crackers on hand. Why they don't just pack the crackers, I don't know (they are well off, money not an issue). If one of them leaves the room, they'll ask one of us (my wife or kids) to be "in charge" of the baby - even if the other parent is right there, just scrolling on their phone or something. But whenever I say something to my wife, she says I'm being too much. The other day, we're having a dinner at MIL's house when the baby had a poopy diaper. SIL looks at me and say in the sweetest voice "Uncle (my name), can you change the diaper?" (she frequently does this when we're there but this was the first time I was asked) I answered, politely, "No, I'm sorry, I don't do that." "You....don't do diapers??" "No, I don't do other people's kid's diapers if their mom or dad is around. I mean if I'm babysitting, sure thing, but yea - if the parents are around - I just feel like its their job." SIL looks like she's ready to cry "Well...I feel selfish." I smiled to try and set her at ease, "Not trying to make you feel any way, just telling you a boundary is all." The table got really awkward as she got up and did the diaper. Afterwards my wife blamed me for making SIL feel bad and said I could've just changed the diaper. Not trying to make anyone feel bad - but I've had 3 kids and I always took responsibility -I watched them, I packed for them, and I changed them. I'm not looking to be a secondary parent for this kid. submitted by /u/Late4AnAppointment to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

TIL that in Japan, more diapers are now sold for elderly people than for babies, reflecting the country’s aging population and shifting demographics.

Diaper Comparison 2025
TLDR: Created a spreadsheet to compare my top diaper options in US. First pic is sorted by price, second pic is sorted by which I’ll be trying first. (Currently pregnant with my first). Details: All diapers listed are hypoallergenic and all have wetness indicator (two requirements to me). Benefits examined: - Chlorine free or ECF - Fragrance free - Paraben free - Phthalate free - Other notable benefits - Biodegradable How I chose my top picks: - Each benefit column has different value, determined by important to me. (For example, biodegradable would be nice, but not as important as being fragrance free, so I only gave 0.5 points if noted as biodegradable). - Point totals for each row is in column 10 - Only considered items from stores convenient to me. Ideally would like to be able to have in stock at 2+ stores just in case. - The blowout barrier pockets seemed like a real appeal to me Results - my Top 5 (ish) Picks: 1. Up&Up 2. Huggies Little Snugglers (or the Plus version at Costco) 3. Pampers Pure 4. Bambo Nature 5. Pura Summary: While I know this by no means replaces actual experience and every baby is different, I made this to help me decide which options to start with. Hopefully this will help someone else too. Anyone love or hate my top 5 picks? Would love to hear your first-hand experience. submitted by /u/LilChowder to r/moderatelygranolamoms [link] [comments]

I was told I should not change my daughter's diapers...
I (37m) am a (medically) retired military vet, and stay-at-home/work-from-home dad to 3 kids (2 boys, 1 girl). I was talking to some parents at my oldest's school about our kids; a few of us still have little ones in diapers and were just comparing experiences. One mom (who I'm not familiar with) chimed in at some point that I shouldn't be changing my daughter's diapers (because I'm a male), that my wife should be the one doing it... I have pretty thick skin and it didn't really bother me at the time, but the more I think about it and how much I love my daughter and would never let anything bad happen to her, it's starting to really annoy me that she said something like that. I'm not going to bring it up to her if I see her again (which I will) but it makes me want to be less friendly to her. Edit: Holy smokes! This post took off like I never expected. Thank you everyone for the kind words and for validating my feelings/thoughts. I’d +1 everyone’s kind comments but there are too many! A virtual high five is going to have to suffice 🫸🏽🫷🏻 submitted by /u/WeGoinToSizzler to r/mildlyinfuriating [link] [comments]

My son orders adult diapers
My son is 17 and keeps ordering adult diapers. He has always been a bit awkward. Not sure what he is doing with the adult diapers. If it is a sexual thing. Is he too lazy to go to the bathroom? Is he having bedwetting problems? I don't think it's that. He has always had issues with this. He was always constipated as a baby, even though I breastfed him. He was very difficult to potty train, probably because he liked wearing diapers. When he was little, he would wipe his poop on the wall when he was mad at me. I would catch him stealing pull-ups, or swim diapers from cousins/friends and would find them (used) in closets. Anyway, now he is 17 and will be leaving home soon. I worry he won't make it as an adult in this world. We have had him in therapy throughout his life, but he really doesn't want help. submitted by /u/Ok-Occasion-6345 to r/offmychest [link] [comments]
