New Year's Baby (ver. 2.0) "But mommy! I'm 8 years old, I'm a big boy! Big Boys don't wear diapers!" I protested loudly as mom pulled at my pants. "Tommy I have explained this a hundred times. There is only one bathroom in this house and with all the guests we are going to have tonight, we can't have you tying up the bathroom with your hourly need to pee!" she explained to me as she pulled my jeans down. I grabbed the waistband of my Barney underpants and held them firmly in place. I had several pair of these briefs for a couple years now and still not outgrown them. I was a little small and hadn't been growing like the rest of the kids my age. The briefs were getting a bit worn, but they still fit me fine. I also had some other Barney stuff. I still liked Barney even though I knew I was getting too old for it. I couldn't wear Barney stuff to school last school year. However, now that my parents decided to home-school me, I can wear my old Barney clothes whenever I want. But usually I only wear them around the house. I also occasionally watch some of the Barney video tapes I have. And I have a big stuffed Barney plush toy as well. "But Mommy, I don't want to wear a diaper," I complained as I hopped up and down. "You are not acting like a big boy," She scolded as she slapped my bottom hard with her hand, causing me to release my grip on my briefs. With no further resistance she pulled them down to my ankles and I stepped out of them quietly. "Take your bath," Mom told me gently as she pushed me toward the bathroom door. I stomped off into the bathroom and got in the tub. I sat in the warm water, crossed my arms and just sat there sulking like a baby for a while. "Get washed up!" Mom said firmly this time. I didn't move. "Fine!" Mom said as she stormed into the bathroom and kneeled down next to the tub. I kept my arms folded tightly across my chest as my mother soaped up a washcloth and started washing me while she scolded. "A big boy would do as his mother asked, I really wish you would cooperate a little more, Thomas," she said as she washed my hair with no help from me. "Okay get out," she said flatly as she stood up. I got out of the tub and stood in the center of the bathroom on the bath mat, water dripping down my naked body. Mom started to dry me off, and as she did so slowly lowered herself so that she was sitting on the toilet. Suddenly she grabbed me by the waist and pulled me over her knee. "No mommy, please, I'll be good!" I promised as she positioned me over her knee. "I'm not going to spank you, you just seem to listen better in this position," she said as she held me over her knee. She lectured me on being a big boy and about how I was to stay in my room once the grownups got there for the party. When she was done she gave me one sharp slap on my left cheek and stood me back up. I followed her to my room, rubbing my bottom with my hand gently. Having resigned myself to being diapered I lay down in my bed and waited for mom as grabbed the jumbo size package of Luvs Size 6 diapers and a container of baby powder from the shopping bags on the top shelf of my closet where I couldn't reach. She opened the package of diapers, pulled one out and unfolded the diaper in front of me. "These were the only ones I could find at the store that would fit you. You're still small enough that they should fit you fine," she said. "Can I see?" I asked curiously. Mom handed me the diaper and I gave it a full inspection. The outer plastic was soft and smooth, and the inner padding thick and sweet smelling. The shiny plastic waistband part had Barney prints similar to what my underpants had all over. A soft blueish side stretched a tiny bit as I pulled on one of the sides. There were 2 types of leg bands. One set inside that went front to back and one on the outside edge. I realized that it was indeed a baby diaper but for some reason, was a little more comfortable about wearing it now that I had seen it and felt it. I handed the diaper back to mom and lay back down. Trying to be the big boy I promised to be, I lifted my butt helpfully as mom slid the diaper under me. It was soft under my bottom and felt warm and nice. Mom sprinkled baby powder on my penis and diaper area and rubbed it in as the sweet smell filled the room. I watched with fascination as she pulled the diaper up, through my legs and over my genitals. She held it firm against my waist as she taped the tape on the left side, and then the right side. She rubbed the tapes with her fingers to make sure they were sticking good. "Perfect," she commented as I sat up in bed and explored my diaper with my hands. Stretched over my body it felt even smoother to the touch. "I guess this isn't too bad, but I'm still a big boy!" I said looking to mom for her assurance that this did not make me a baby. "Of course," Mom assured me as she helped me to my feet. She held out one of my "Barney" t-shirts so I could slip into it and then a pair of sweat pants which she helped me pull up over the diaper. "These diapers are so thin now, you can barely even tell," Mom said as she positioned me in front of the mirror. "Except for the noise," I said referring to the crinkling sound. "Well, I don't think anyone will ever notice," mom said in a strange way. She took a large handful of diapers out of the package and put the diapers and package on my dresser along with the baby powder and a few other bottles of stuff from out of the shopping bags in the closet only leaving one bag on the top shelf. She had bought large bottles of both lotion and oil and a few other smaller things that I didn't recognize. She took time to neatly arrange everything on one end of my long dresser. I kinda wondered why she got so many diapers out and about all the different bottles, but I decided not to ask questions. Maybe she just wasn't sure how many diapers I would need or what else to buy, I thought. She always had a habit of getting things "just in case". "Can I watch TV till all the guests get here?" I asked sweetly. Mom said I could so I went and sat on the couch downstairs and lay down with my head in my dad's lap. "Hi daddy," I smiled as he stroked my hair gently. I was a bit surprised when he moved his hand down to pat my bottom. The diaper crinkled loudly but he just smiled back at me and didn't say anything about it. We talked a bit and watched TV until the first of the guests arrived. "Goodnite mommy! Night daddy!" I said as I kissed them both and quickly ran up to my room. It' wasn't bedtime, so I played Legos on the floor in my room trying to stay out of the way. It wasn't but about 10 minutes later I had to go pee. I tried to pee, but couldn't seem to make it come out. I pushed hard and almost pooped myself but didn't pee. A little bit of poop may have come out but I wasn't sure. I got up and tried again but still couldn't pee. I stood in the center of my room and closed my eyes. I imagined I was standing in front of a potty with my pants pulled down and relaxed my bladder enough to make the pee start coming out slowly. Then it started coming out faster until I couldn't have stopped it if I had wanted to. By the time I was done my diaper felt really warm and squishy. Not really a bad feeling, just kind of weird. To my surprise, it didn't really even feel wet. I tiptoed to my door and opened it a couple inches "Mommy?" I called not loud enough for anyone to hear. I heard music and voices downstairs and decided not to bother Mom. I shut the door and went back to playing quietly. About 20 minutes later there was a knock on my door, and Mom walked in. She had a plate of snacks that she had fixed from what the adults where having downstairs. She also had a rather large container of apple juice for me. "I thought you might want something to eat and drink", she said. "Great, thanks!" I replied. She set the plate and apple juice down on my other higher dresser and went to the closet to get something out of the other bag. While doing so, she asked me, "how's the diaper"? "I...uh....It's.....Not dry," I stuttered nervously. "You need to be changed?" She asked obviously wanting me to say it. "Yes mom," I said as I looked down at the floor shamefully. "Don't be embarrassed That's why you have it on. You should see the line to the bathroom! And, you think waiting on mommy and daddy takes a long time! I think this solution to the bathroom problem is working rather well considering you've only been up here about 30 minutes," she commented. "It's 4 hours till New Year's, but bedtime for you is still 9 o'clock." From the bottom of my closet she grabbed an exercise mat that I had used in kindergarten for naps. I sometimes played on it on the floor of my room when I wanted to bounce around. Dad said I should use it to do some sit ups - but I hardly ever wanted to do anything like that. She had something else in her hand as well but I couldn't see what it was as she placed it behind the container of apple juice out of sight. She then proceeded to fold out the mat on top of my long dresser. "Why cant you just change me on the bed?" I asked. "Because your diaper is wet and I don't want to get anything on the bed while trying to clean you up. Besides, it will be much easier this way," she replied. I walked over to her and she pulled my t-shirt off me as I raised my arms and then lowered my sweats so I could slip out of them. Then she lifted me up onto the mat. As I layed down, I could see the grayish-yellow tint around the front of my diaper telling mom the diaper was quite wet. Mom untaped both tabs of my diaper and pulled the front down, leaving the back of the diaper under my bottom. "Where are the wipes I bought yesterday?" She asked as she looked to find them. Nervously I told her they were in the trash can. "That's right, someone was upset yesterday when I brought the supplies in here," She said as she pulled the tub of baby wipes from my trash can. I blushed thinking back to the tantrum I had thrown the day before which only resulted in a spanking for me. Mom wiped me clean as I shivered from the feel of the cold wet wipe on my most sensitive parts. She lifted my legs high up in the air above my head so she could finish wiping removing a little bit of poop from my bottom where I had gone a little before. She wasn't really surprised by it because I was often getting hassled about having stains in my underwear. Mostly because of not wiping properly but often times it was really an accident. With my legs in the air and my bottom up off the mat, she pulled the diaper out from under me. Which she wrapped up into itself and threw in the trash can. This time she wanted to use baby oil on me. She instructed me to flip over so she could do my back side. Not only did she do my bottom, but my whole back and down my legs. She then told me to flip back over so she could do the whole front as well. The oil felt nice so I decided not to complain. And, I couldn't decide which smelled better, the powder or the oil. Using a fresh baby wipe, she cleaned off her hands and then unfolded another diaper. I lifted up to be helpful, but mom said to just lie still. She lifted me by my ankles as before with one hand and slid the diaper under my bottom with the other. After lowering me back down, she said "Okay Spread em!", jokingly referring to my legs. She again wiped off her oily hand, pulled the diaper up between my legs and taped it securely. As I lay on the dresser, she folded my t-shirt and sweats and put them back in my dresser. From a different drawer, she removed my Barney one piece sleeper and set it on the bed. "How about wearing these tonight?", she asked. "Ok" was my only reply while thinking to myself that I liked those pj's. Especially with the feet on them. She lowered me down from the dresser and I happily allowed her to help me put my sleeper on and zip it up. She then wiped up the mat with a wipe and straightened the dresser as I began playing with my Legos again. It wasn't until she bent down to hand me the plate of food did I realize what else she had taken out of the closet. Before me was a plate of food and a toddler sippy cup full of apple juice. Before I could say a word, she just told me, "this is so you don't spill it." I was happy to have food and something to drink this close to bedtime. Normally I wasn't allowed to drink much before bed. And I was never allowed to have food and drink in my room. I probably only had an accident in bed once or twice a month. But now with the diaper, I guessed mom was making an exception. Besides, I couldn't argue with her. I spilt stuff all the time. She left the room saying, "I'll be back just before bedtime" taking the big container of juice with her. I finished my snacks and all of my juice and continued with my Lego project. It was only about 30 minutes later when I was starting to feel the effects of the juice. I had 2 glasses of milk with dinner as well and was already needing to pee again. I tried to just let go while sitting and this time was able to just go in my diaper without much effort. I wet a little less then last time. However, while peeing, more poop came out then last time. I couldn't help it, it just started coming out and I couldn't stop it. It wasn't a lot, but enough that I could definitely tell I had pooped my diaper. I continued with my Legos but soon noticed the smell of the poopy diaper. About 20 minutes later, mom came in saying "Time for bed". She immediately noticed the odor in the room and exclaimed, "smells like someone's stinky!" "Yes mom, I need to be changed, I had an accident," I said. "No honey, it's not an accident. You're wearing a diaper, that's what your supposed to do when you need to go. That's what it's for," she said smiling. "Hop up, lets get you changed." I stood up to allow her to unzip my sleeper and help me take it off. Then it was back on the dresser for another change. It took a little longer cleaning up this time because of the poopy diaper. After I was clean she only re- applied baby oil to my bottom and front diaper area where it got wiped off. I then found out what one of the other items was as she opened the top and put a little on her fingers from the tube. The only words on the tube I could read said "diaper rash" and she applied it to my bottom between my cheeks and the area between my legs. She said, "this will keep you from getting a rash from being in that wet and poopy diaper". She then applied a little bit of powder to my front for good measure and rubbed it in as well. After the fresh diaper was taped on she rubbed my tummy and asked me, "It's a little warm, you think you need the sleeper?" "No, I hot," I replied as I dramatically rubbed my forehead. My sleeper was folded back up, placed in the drawer and exchanged for a something different from the sack in the closet. I was lifted from the dresser and mommy helped me put on my new pj's. It was a one piece and even had feet but was much thinner then my sleeper. It was all white but had little bears printed all over it. Instead of stepping into them, to my surprise, mommy pulled them over my head like a shirt. She sat me on the bed and helped me slip my feet into the footed part on each leg. And one by one, she snapped all the snaps up the inside of both legs. "What are the snaps for?" I asked. "They're to make changing your diaper easier if you need a change before morning. Mommy will check you before we go to bed tonight since we will be up late. I want you to stay in bed tomorrow morning until we get you up, Okay?" she asked. "Okay mommy, I'll stay in bed," I replied. "Bedtime," she said as she knelt down to pick up my Legos. "Okay," I said disappointed to have my project destroyed. She placed the box of Legos on the bookshelf where it belonged. Mom just snickered at me as she tucked me in and kissed me gently. "Good night, sweetheart," she whispered softly in my ear. "Night mommy," I said as I gave her a wet sloppy kiss. I rolled over onto my side and put my thumb in my mouth to suck on it like I always do at night, and closed my eyes. She told me as she left my room ,"honey, remember, if you need to go potty, just use your diaper, okay?" She took the bag that was still in the closet with her. I went to sleep not knowing for sure if this would be the only night of being diapered. I didn't know how long I would be wearing them the next morning since I had to wait till mommy and daddy got up. I wasn't at all upset with the situation and was starting to wonder if a night like that might ever happen again. I vaguely remember mommy changing my diaper late that night. She had only turned on a lamp on my dresser as to try not to wake me. She had even told me "Happy New Year, Baby" as she was lifting me off the dresser and putting me back in bed. Before I could get my thumb back in my mouth, mommy put something else to my lips. I opened my mouth as she inserted it and to my surprise, it tasted good. Kind of like milk but a little bit sweeter, and it was warm. It wasn't until I put my hand up to it when I realized what it was. No mistake about it, it was a baby bottle. I drank nearly all of it before drifting back to sleep. The next morning, I awoke to the site of the bottle sitting on my night stand. However, there was something still in my mouth - and it wasn't my thumb. Being curious, I pulled it out of my mouth and stared at it for a moment before waking up enough to know what it was. And when I knew, I just put the pacifier back in my mouth and laid there for a while. Mommy came in only moments later to wake me up saying "Good Morning, Baby!" "Smells like someone's stinky again!" I hadn't even noticed the smell or realized my diaper was wet and messy since I had just woken up. She pulled the sheets back and began unsnapping my pj's and pulling my feet out of it. Then she stood me up out of bed and pulled my pj's off over my head. I was lifted up on the changing mat on the dresser and she began the duty of changing my messy diaper. As she was doing so she explained that the toilet had broken at the party last night due to all the extra use. It would be a while before they could get someone out to fix it because of the holidays. She and daddy decided that maybe I should continue to wear the diapers for a while. I didn't object when she changed me out of my wet diaper into a fresh one that morning, nor any other time. Wearing the 36 diapers in the package for the next several days wasn't too bad. The repairman never seemed to come to fix the toilet. The fact was, I was getting used to this diaper thing. And when the package of diapers was gone, it was replaced by another. The new package had different Barney designs on the front of the diapers which I thought were a lot better. I didn't know until much later about the 2 big cases of diapers in the garage that had been delivered a few days after new year's. I eventually found out that the toilet was never broken. It had not even crossed my mind about where mommy and daddy were using the bathroom. When I finally figured it out, I wasn't really upset about wearing diapers because I sort of liked them now. It was much easier to just use a diaper then to go to the bathroom. And waiting for someone else to get out wasn't a problem anymore. My bathroom time wasn't a problem for mommy and daddy anymore either. The only down side was that I couldn't get out of doing my school work by asking to go to the bathroom all the time. But, I soon found out it's much better to just go ahead and do the work and wait patiently for a diaper change. My parents had tricked me into wearing diapers again, but that was ok.
