Turning 𝑚𝑦 Bedroom Into a Nursery ⁽⁺ᴳᴱᴬᴿ⁾

[ronnieM]

Totally not stealing the title for Jayson's thread because I can't think of anything more creative...



This, as the title says, is the thread where I show my nursery/setup/gear to those who are interested (also so I can just link people a thread when they ask me what ABDL stuff I use/prefer)

Background:
I am 19 and in college (virtually), which means I still live with my parents for the time being. I am a full on ABDL (non-sexual), have worn 24/7 for over five months now, and my parents are fine (if not happy) with it. This room has been my room since the day my crib moved from my parents' bedroom to this one (I was probably a few months old?) and will always be what I consider to be the true home, whether or not I live in it or not (I plan to move out and get my own place when COVID is over, lol). I wish I had more pictures/videos of the room back then, like when it had huge animal decals and a thing going around the room at the ceiling which the name escapes me (like the letters that go around the top of the wall in a classroom, is that a trim?), but oh well. Point is that it was once my nursery, then a boring room for most of my life, then back to nursery again. I will however point out that this is not my dream nursery- I would put carpet back in, paint the walls white (how they used to be), and slap on some cute decals, but I will have to leave soon enough for college that it wouldn't be worth the effort for how much time I have left. Stuff like that will be saved for when I have my own house.

Anyways,

Before pictures (WARNING: Open at your own risk. I am not liable for damage to vision caused by extreme lack of cuteness/snuggliness.)

Spoiler

And now for some eyebleach-

After pictures:


The doorway shot


I know it's not a crib, but for simplicity's sake, I'll call it one. It's more like a playpen by looks.

Oh yeah, and it's 1000x cozier than that lame old bed.

For those wondering, the bed rails slide down rather than fold over, so I slide the end one down and up before and after a nap/bedtime.

Spoiler: Same angles, but from my perspective when I was 2.

A view from above. I climbed up on top of my dresser to take this not-great picture, and followed it up with a not-great panorama-

 

[ronnieM]

You don't realize just how high some things are in your own room if you're used to only being on the ground. If you have something you can safely climb up on top of that is stable enough and tall, try it.


I will admit it is a bit scary... Just the same as when I did it long ago.




What I see waking up from a nap...


(This teether and my Nuby one helped a lot with breaking my new wisdom tooth through the sore gums!)



Oh yeah, and the activity center! My most recent addition.


Enough crib stuff for now...

The floor!



I hated when my dad put in boring, hard wood for the floors, removing my beloved carpet. So I started out with a shag rug...


Then something a little more playful (that stays under the rug, giving it more cushion for playing)


Then something more useful and more playful...




I guess the tour leads to the closet now...

 

[ronnieM]

They don't exactly fit, but hey, if you want to be a diaper expert, you have to have the materials at hand.


Some toys!
Some of these shown here (like the bus, the gun, and the mega bloks), were toys I had back then, and if I didn't still have them, I rebought them on amazon or ebay. I highly recommend doing this yourself if you have pictures or videos to go through. Why relive a generic baby life when you can relive what actually happened?


Secret little snack cabinet! (That can also 3D print stuff, crazy cupboards they make these days, eh?)
People in my house like to eat things that aren't theirs... So this is necessary.


Some more toys in another cabinet.


There are many more Thomas toys unpictured. I found these in the attic a few days ago.


Doing worksheets you did in preK/kindergarten can be fun! Use your non-dominant hand and some crayons and it will look authentic, even though you may be trying your best.



Over to the dresser!


But first a stop at the diaper genie. An automatic freshener is a nice thing to accompany one, paired also with a normal bottle of air freshener. Now I just have to make a mechanical nose so it knows the right time to spray...


The usual gear for changes...


Most of the top drawer gear... I don't always use all of it, and there is more in there that i seldom use (or never, because I bought it because it was special, like the small white pacifier, which is the same (long-discontinued) pacifier line I used when I was a newborn.



Now for the moment you've been waiting for-

The diaper drawer!

It's like a game of peekaboo every time I open and close it...

 

[ronnieM]

A little tip for you all- save ABU's scent strips and put them under a cloth in your diaper drawer, and everything will stay smelling good for a very long time!


Extra pampering supplies

Gotta have backups for the backups.



Onto apparel-


My two favorite pieces, though I've had the footie PJs for a while now and I may need to buy a new pair (those are clean out of the wash)



Cover, training pants, and cloth.

Funny thing is, I'm on the road to becoming [redacted] and am diapered 24/7, so I haven't even used the training pants yet. I just thought they looked cute.

That reminds me- I don't have any undies! The training pants are the closest thing I have to undies now after I got rid of all of mine months ago.



And finally, some miscellaneous things.


A desk full of mostly nerdy things.


The sock monkey, boy in the blue overalls, and the red dog are the three most important stuffies to me, ones from the first time I was a baby.
It was only recently that I was able to find the boy and the dog (who had been in the attic), reuniting the three for the first time in over 15 years.

Old pictures of the three-

I will have to make up a new name for him. I was too young to give him a name yet.


Sheddy, named by my parents as his fur would come off all the time and get everything all red and fuzzy.


Nummy, as I was too young to pronounce Monkey right.

 

[ronnieM]

On this shelf, there's a jolly chimp my dad gave me a very very long time ago, and hot wheels cars which were for the most part buried underground years ago and reexcavated by me recently.





So yeah, that's what became of my boring bedroom - a much-needed nursery.


I hope it gives at least someone some inspiration for what they can do with their own space.

Cool room. Love the DX7. That was my first synth (still have it sitting in an anvil case somewhere in the house).

 

[ozziebee]

what do your parents think of the room and all your baby stuff?

 

[Demonbabywearspamps]

That's so cute!!! Love the way your crib looks!

 

[ronnieM]

what do your parents think of the room and all your baby stuff?

They know it's something I wanted for 15 years and makes me happy, so they at the very least just go along with it.

If I put all of the money from ABDL stuff into getting a synth, I could MAYBE get a nice Juno 60... It's my dream synth, but I still wouldn't trade it for all this.

That's really something. Extra points for the Akord diaper pail.

I've been thinking about getting those folding bed rails. Those rails or at least something similar can be found at https://www.walmart.com/ip/OUSGAR-Bed-Rails-47-60-70-80-87-L-Height-Adjustable-Bed-Guard/453822023.

Thanks :3

Yeah, those are pretty much the same. I suspect all of these similar rails are made in the same factory somewhere in china.

 

[Halibut]

it's fantastic, I'm glad your parents are so supportive... did they help you buy some of it?

Well my dad bought me a case of PeekABUs when I was almost out, other than that, no. Took advantage of the current silicon shortage and sold old PC parts for a good chunk of change to get most of this.

 

[LilByte]

:O amazing room, amazing that your parents are ok with it to the point of even buying you diapies.
lucky >.>

 

[SpAzpieSweeTot]

I've said it before, but, "Oh, my God, your bed!"

You may want to put one rail on backwards, so you can get out by yourself.

I can’t wait until my crib is finished, I’m taking a queen bed and turning it into a crib I’ve already lengthened the footboard to make it the same height as the headboard but sadly the rain here is bad and slowed progress in a couple of days hopefully I’ll have some pics

 

[tobid03]

Not sure if it's the camera angle or not, but those clothes look tiny!

Definitely the camera angle... I'm 5'10

I love the way you've set up your room! I feel like between all the tech stuff and baby stuff I could hijack your room and feel right at home, lol! Your room is really cool.

PS: that little tripod you have holding your headset: I have one that looks just like that one and you gave me a better idea than just throwing mine on the floor!
