Introducing your husband or significant other to the pleasures of a return to babyhood may indeed seem a significant hurdle to many women.  If you have previously introduced him to panties and petticoated him from that time, the challenge is generally much less difficult because the level of cooperation will virtually be assured.  It is, however, often possible to reintroduce diapering back into your man’s life with much less effort and resistance on his part than you might initially expect.

A technique as simple as giving him his first diapers, plastic pants, bottle and pacifier as a gift along with a simple note saying something along the lines of,  “I’ve often fantasized that I’d like to baby you.  Keep these, and let me know when you’re ready to play baby for me.  Just remember, babies always do what Mommy tells them.  Love you, Sweet Pea!”

Although a bit of a surprise, this method can be quite effective.  Leaving the gift in the bedroom on the bed for him to find and open, or giving it to him as a gift on his birthday, Christmas, or some other opportune time, all work very well. Tell him of the gift and say something like, “It’s a surprise and something I’ve felt you’ve needed for some time”.

This leaves the choice open to him.  Once he has the gift, even if he reacts angrily to it, don’t react in anger.  Just make sure your disappointment is gently made clear.  Also, make sure the items are kept somewhere he is aware of.  Since they are his, storing them in his closet or in his wardrobe or dresser might be appropriate.  This will help to keep his attention focused on them.  Mention them casually once in a while but not too frequently.  Chances are that in time he’ll come around.

Gentle chiding may be helpful in overcoming resistance also.  “Is the big man afraid of wearing diapers?  My, my what a big baby you are.  You probably need a little babying, don’t you agree?” etc.  It is important to allow resistance to be expressed, without overtly increasing it with your own resistance.  This is not a battle of wills, but rather more of a doorway to a new form of relationship which, once your intended succumbs, will not only enfold him securely in his diapers but also refocus his attentions on you and your happiness.  Albeit, he will most likely become much more of a willing victim not long after you return him to his diapers - provided that it is done properly.

You will most likely find that the first time you diaper him he will be quite excited.  Make sure to make his first experience a pleasurable one.  Applying baby lotion liberally will generally ensure his continued cooperation.  When you diaper him, make sure that he is very snugly pinned in.  This will exert a light pressure on his bladder area and make it easier for him to wet himself.  That can be quite an accomplishment for someone who has been continent for many years, and may take repeated attempts before it happens.  Making sure he takes plenty of liquids while diapered will help this along immeasurably.

Use of baby lotion is recommended as it is high in ingredients which help prevent undue odors.  Use of baby oil or vaseline-based items is discouraged, as it will result in hardening and cracking of vinyl pants. However, the vinyl pants should have baby powder shaken in them and be fluffed out to spread it evenly.

Another useful technique is to fluff out his vinyl pants and place them on his chest or ask him to lift his head and place them over his head while you are applying the baby lotion and fastening his diapers.  This serves several purposes.  It helps him focus on what’s happening, stimulates him with the babyish smell of the plastic and powder (which also usually brings back childhood memories), and prevents him from seeing what you are doing.  This will both increase his excitement and reinforce a sense of babyish helplessness.  Take your time during his first diapering, and do your best to make it an enjoyable experience for him knowing that this is the first baby step on a long road from which there is no turning back.

Whether he admits it or not, the majority of men find the experience of being put back into diapers highly pleasurable.  It is also very relaxing and a sure method for relieving stress.  Men who show a lot of anger and are easily upset fall much more easily into the habit of wearing diapers once they realize the stress relief that they provide.  His diapers and vinyl pants will quickly become his refuge from the problems of his daily life, and his attentions will become increasingly focused on you and your happiness.

Once you have him in his diapers and vinyl pants (even if it’s the first time), giving him his bottle or pacifier becomes ever so much easier.  Other techniques such as patting the front or back of his pants and saying something like, “Now, my baby’s all ready for beddy-bye”, or “Aren’t you glad you decided to stop making such a fuss?  You like your diapers very much now, don’t you?” will help reinforce the pleasure of the experience and ensure his continued cooperation.

Every little step draws him further into his baby world and helps refocus his attentions entirely on you and your happiness.  Allowing him to nurse at your breast is also a very good start to refocusing his attentions. What few men realize is that the entire experience also refocuses them to a much more oral orientation to achieving happiness for themselves as well as their partners.  With his sexuality securely ensconced in diapers, oral satisfaction is literally the only option left to him.  His bottle and pacifier are a continual reminder and reinforcement of that.

His diapers and vinyl baby pants are what made his desires subordinate to your wishes and desires.  Therefore, if lovingly babied, he may well find, in giving you the satisfaction that you seek, that his own desires are driven to new peaks.  This may cause his pleasure to be delayed and will further reinforce the pleasure he gets from wearing diapers.  It will also teach him that his immediate gratification (which is what most men are used to and focused solely upon) is not what is paramount – your desires and happiness are what he must seek, in order to achieve his own.  He will become much less self-centred. This can create an unbelievably strong bond on his part, which will ensure his cooperation in other areas of life also.

Please note that petticoating and babification alone are not a complete solution.  What makes the solution complete and binding is the collection of a record (photos), subsequent exposure and humiliation, and imposition of your will instead of his, with significant punitive consequences for nonconformance on his part.

This methodology should be evident to any reader of 'Petticoat Discipline Monthly', although why it is effective may not be as apparent.  One would think that a man would simply refuse to cooperate and that would be that.  However, the enthralment that the majority of men find in panties or diapers once they are introduced (or reintroduced) to them is a large factor.  Also, use of photos, as well as exposure and humiliation before your friends, is relatively easy to arrange.  Such exposure makes sure that any resistance on his part is pointless.  The sooner he becomes known for his sissy or baby ways, the more under your control he becomes.

You also should recognize that acceptance of diapers or panties is acceptance of a substitute.  In diapers it is much easier to ensure he contains himself and focuses on satisfying you.  In the initial stages of babification, a few light pats will see to his satisfaction as well as encourage his continued enthralment with his diapers. Once returned to diapers, most men find they prefer to stay there.

I agree with Susan as to the utility, feel and long life of cloth diapers.  They very definitely have a place in babying the man in your life, and should be the first diapers that he wears.  However, as to Susan’s opinion of disposable diapers, I have to beg to differ to some extent.

Cloth diapers are extremely useful around the house and particularly at bedtime.  However, for trips outside the house disposables definitely have their place.  Though more costly overall, their absorbency and convenience of changing in public places makes disposables a very desirable option.  Also, you need to remember that disposables for adults are derived from all the research and development that went into infants disposables.  It is not by accident that the manufacturers created a diaper that encouraged to the greatest degree possible their continued use.  Their motto might well be: ‘The longer it takes to toilet train, the more diapers we sell’. Therefore, it is no accident that disposables are not very helpful in the toilet training process.  They feel very much to the wearer like a soft cloud in which it is all too easy to forget oneself and lose any sense of control.  Their wicking action, which draws moisture away from the body, ensures prolonged use and dependency.

After you have your beloved diapered and dependent, you can gradually introduce all kinds of baby clothes: onesies, rompers and dresses to keep him occupied.  Taking him into an infants' store and having him buy baby powder, pacifiers, diaper pins, or some other baby item will not only humiliate him, it will help reinforce his babyishness and submission to you.

Making sure that he keeps you happy, and keeps the house, and whatever else that needs taking care of, in good order will be a much, much easier task once he’s on the road to babyhood.  All the other distractions that kept him from you will quickly fall by the wayside.  You will have provided much needed focus and direction to his life, and increased your own happiness and satisfaction in the process.
Baby Janet

Baby Janet raises some very interesting points here. Which of the five senses is the strongest at evoking buried memories? Sight plays a part - revisiting the streets of our childhood can bring memories flooding back. But the strongest, by far, is smell.

Experiements have been conducted with old people who were adults during World War II in London. They were given bottles to smell containing carefully prepared aromas such as 'Air Raid Shelter'. The results were extraordinary; these people could suddenly recall things that they had not thought of for fifty years. So enveloping your man in the scents of baby powder and soft vinyl would definitely help lead him back down the years to babyhood.

Those who appreciate the special joys of being a baby again do find a special delight in their dummies, or bottle teats, or Mummy's nipples. Many babies find that they no longer feel a great drive to make love in the usual way - that just being their doting Mummy's baby is enough. For many women with certain physical complaints this may be an advantage.
