Name: Melissa (on behalf of brothers) Current Age: 19 My name is Melissa and I am the oldest of five kids, me and four younger brothers. All of us have (or did) wet the bed at some point growing up. My Dad left when we were very young, so my Mom had to raise us all. A little over four years ago, when I was 15, my Mom took us all to Disney World for spring break (my high school freshman year), and here is a particularly relevant recollection: My brothers, Kevin, Brian, Colby and Connor were 11, 9, 4 and 2 years old at the time. Connor, the youngest, was the only one still in diapers full time (for everything). Colby was in Pull-Ups for nighttime wetting accidents, but he was dry more often than not. Brian and Kevin still wet all the time and had to wear diapers. The hard and fast rule was that until you could show signs of progress, you had to wear diapers. I had just stopped bedwetting myself that summer (thankfully before high school!). Connor had size 5 diapers, while Kevin and Brian had size 6's (which I also wore until I was 14 � my Mom would buy them by the case from Sam's Club). Pampers Baby Dry was all she ever bought. We had just checked into our rooms at the hotel that evening: she had put me in the same room with Kevin and Brian and she stayed with Colby and Connor. She said that this was because the two younger ones had to go to bed early and that us three would probably want to watch our TV shows, etc. But we all had very firm bedtimes. Me, Kevin and Brian were in our room unpacking and getting ready for bed. She had a separate, new package of Pampers in our big suitcase. We went to her room, where she had just finished diapering Colby and Connor and putting them to bed. (She later explained that she didn't want any possible leaks, so Colby had to go back to diapers at night for the vacation). Kevin and Brian wanted to be changed, but Mom was already half in bed. She told them that I would be changing them during the vacation. I was shocked. I had never changed them before (Mom always did all the changing). They started to whine, but Mom said that if she had to change them, they'd get a spanking first. That was enough to send them scurrying back to our room. In the room, we all got ready for bed. I stripped down to my underpants and undervest (I was pretty underdeveloped and did not get my first training bra until I was 16). My Mom had always changed us together, so none of us had any real awkwardness about being naked around each other. They quietly took off their pants and got on a bed. I opened the Pampers package and took two out. I was very nervous but a little excited, since this was the first time I was the "diaperer" and not the "diaperee." I had them both on their backs with their little butts in the air. Both got a fresh diaper taped on them. I remember the diapers being very snug on Brian but fitting fine on Kevin, even though he was older. People often though Brian was older than Kevin. (Kevin and I share a lot alike as we are both very small and were late bloomers). I felt very grown up and teased them a little about their diapers. I remember showing off my underpants and how I was the only one who could keep dry and was in charge of them. Of course, the real irony is that I was hardly this ultra-mature big sister. I was wearing these gigantic little girls Danskin underpants with flowers on them; the kind no girl over 8 is normally caught dead wearing; the kind that always stick at least an inch above any pair of jeans or shorts. (My Mom would keep buying these for me and refuse to let me wear bikinis, etc. until I left for college last year). The two of them sat there in their Pampers while I gloated at what I thought was a pretty darn good first effort at diapering. I got to sleep in one bed while they had to share the other. I remember the next morning clearly. We all woke up and both of them were wet. Kevin was the worst wetter of all the boys, despite being the oldest, and was really soaked. My Mom came in with the two younger ones in tow, already good to go for the first day. She was a little irritated we were so late getting ready. She saw how soaked Kevin was and snapped at me to get his diaper off and for all of us to get ready. I did that and all of us stripped down to take a quick shower in the huge shower in the room. When we got out, I put on my underpants, Brian put on his tightie whities and Kevin put on some cartoon underwear. Kevin still liked his Underoos, although Brian thought they were dumb. My Mom was there with a Pull-Up, however, and stopped Kevin. Kevin didn't have daytime accidents anymore but always had to go, so Mom wanted him in a Pull-Up (along with Colby) because of the lines and the waiting involved. He put up a big fuss, saying he was not a baby, etc. My Mom got mad and spanked Kevin in his underwear. She then made him get in the Pull-Up and put on his pants. My Mom was right, of course. The lines were huge, and while Brian and I were OK with holding it (barely), both Kevin and Colby (who was only four) definitely needed the Pull-Ups. My Mom carried around a big diaper bag for that vacation, full of wipes, diapers (for Connor) and Pull-Ups. Kevin apologized to my Mom for misbehaving and said that he was glad he had a Pull-Up on, otherwise he would be having lots of accidents. The first day Kevin and Colby were very shy about asking for a dry Pull-Up but a lady who worked there overhead and told them that lots of "big boys" wore them in the park. Kevin and Colby were allowed to take off and put on their own Pull-Ups during the day but I did all the diapering for Kevin and Brian at night. Kevin stayed in either Pull-Ups or diapers for the entire trip. Mom offered to let him wear underwear for the times we were not in the theme park (like at dinner), but he said no. I think he realized it was just easier to stay in Pull-Ups. His Pull-Up was always pretty wet each night by the time we got back to our room before I changed him into Pampers for the night. That was the only time I ever diapered my younger brothers. When we got back home, it was back to business as usual with my Mom doing all the diapering.
