It's been a while since I have participated here and things have changed for me so I thought this was an interesting question.
What do you stock? How many do you keep? Where do you hide it?
I generally have several bags of Dry 24/7 and then something else fun. Currently I am down to a partial bag of Dry 24/7, used my last Tykables and my last Little Paws a week ago so it is time. I will be ordering a couple of cases of ABU Simple because they fit and I really like most of the ABU products (most of them are a bit too small unfortunately). In a few weeks I will also order 2 cases of Dry 24/7.
I had a couple of pacifiers, my wife made me trash them when we were dating. I have 1 missing onezie (I think it also met an untimely fate), and 2 new onezies that are hidden. I have 3 blankie sleepers (they are in the upstairs closet just in case I need one.
That also answers how many I keep. I should have around 300 diapers in a couple of weeks, but I will let that dwindle down to 2 or 3 bags (half a case or so) before I do a big order again. I find that it is easier, attracts less attention and is easier to deal with all at once.
I *hide* my stash in my den closet. Really not so much hide as it is conceal and keep out of public view. My wife knows and is fine with the diapers, although will sometimes say something when she knows I have gotten more diapers or when I decide to wear to bed. When we moved into our current home it was basically mutual consent that we placed the diaper cases in the den out of sight. She chose the bedroom closet for my blankie sleepers and even put some of my diapers and wipes in a night stand drawer (although those are downstairs now). My diaper pail is under the desk so it is easier to access in the morning (I change and shower in the downstairs bathroom so it is the next room over). I didn't want the pail in the bathroom since it is used sometimes by visitors.
I do have a bunch of plushies, one or two always hiding under my pillow and the rest are near my diaper *stash*.
It is strange that I can wear diapers and not have too much heat from them, in fact she has said she has no problem with me wearing (I am the one that is shy about wearing my diapers), but she tells me that I *don't need* the pacifier. But then I am grateful I can wear diapers when I need without too much of a problem.
. Trying to resist the urge to order more because I have a lot of other things obviously haha. But mega max has become my new fave.
