Resources for Your Adult Baby Fetish

If you’ve been lamenting the fact that Babies “R” Us doesn’t carry your size in playpens, cribs, or nappies, it’s time for a little road trip to Chicago. There truly is something for everyone, and now Adult Babies and Diaper Lovers (ABDL) can find all the stuff they wish they’d never outgrown.

For some residents, Mount Prospect’s Tykables is just another business in the free market, and to each their own. Others are upset that big babies exist at all and want the store shut down immediately.

The owner of the store hopes protesters will take their temper tantrums elsewhere, claiming the focus of his business is adult diapers for medical and “other” needs. But he says this from a super-sized playpen while lamenting that most people don’t have access to an adult nursery. A giant rocking horse, high chair, and toys are also on offer, as is a seven foot crib.

Adult Babies have a difficult time finding acceptance, even in the fetish communities. The euphemism for sexy and kinky play—adult entertainment—is by its very nature in opposition to paraphilic infantilism. While the phenomenon, also knows as autonepiophilia, is often lumped in as a form of submission or masochistic play, it really isn’t—the goal is to regress, a different kind of escapism altogether.

Adult Baby play does sometimes involve scolding, spanking, or humiliation, hence the overlap or association, but practitioners really don’t share much with the props or rituals of BDSM. Aspects of play are more about wearing diapers, crawling, being bottle fed or nursed, and being comforted by Mommy.

Almost all Adult Babies are men, and most begin regression play or recall their interest beginning at the onset of puberty, giving psychologists a heyday about delayed maturity. While it may be difficult for vanillas and even other kink practitioners to relate to or get, it’s very common and harmless. No one should confuse the kink with attraction to young children—a frequent mistake. The attraction is in playing a young child, not playing with! Accessing an early aspect of our identity is the appeal.

Resources for Adult Babies

Tykables
Despite all the uproar, the new Adult Baby playground is discreet and operates by appointment only. It began online so if you’re nowhere near Chicago, you can still shop ’til you drop at Tykables.

Mommy Madeline
Many dungeons or role-play practitioners will provide nursery games. But specialist mommies with completely outfitted romper rooms are harder to find. You don’t have to bring your own diapers—Mommy Madeline has dozens of kinds and sizes, and every conceivable toy or prop on hand. She will also take you for play outings if so desired.

Adult Baby Diaper Lover Match
A free dating site for and by ABDL folks. There are sections for you on mainstream sites like Plenty of Fish, too, so no need to feel alone. But this site and others like it are created specifically for you, so there’s no need to weed through other interest groups.
