A subtle change in the lighting of the nursery caused Ravel to stir. The sun did not shine directly on the crib as it shone through the window in the nursery, but it still filled with room with a dull early morning light. Ravel started to stretch and bumped her hand against the bars of the crib, which caused her to wake a little faster. For a moment, in the daze of waking up, Ravel had forgotten where she was. When she finally was awake enough to remember, she exhaled and calmed down from the brief panic.
She laid back down in the soft blankets and almost fell back asleep again. As she shifted though, she felt the diaper between her legs, grown thicker over the night. She had wet the bed, or rather would have if she weren't wearing a diaper. It wasn’t an unusual occurrence for Ravel lately, still she felt a sudden embarrassed worry. An old fear of being the girl that wet her pants at the slumber party. It was only a brief fear, because the walls of the crib reminded Ravel that, at this slumber party, it was weirder to be the girl that didn’t wet her pants.
Now thoroughly awake, Ravel sat up, while draping the blankets over her to keep cozy. She put the pacifier clipped to her onesie in her mouth and clutched Squoosh to her chest. She felt the soaked diaper squish under her. Ravel had a brief thought that maybe she should turn on the baby monitor and wake her friend turned caretaker to come release her. Even if she did understand the locking mechanism of the crib, opening it herself was against the rules, it seemed wrong. She was supposed to wait patiently to be let out like the baby she was. She could expedite that process, but she found herself feeling content where she was. How often would Ravel get the chance to enjoy the feeling of being stuck in a crib in a full diaper from the night? She put her hands on the crib bars and shook them a little, playing up how trapped she was to herself. She smiled and giggled lightly at the play.
Having resolved to remain in the crib until she was released, Ravel grabbed her bottle, still full with water. She eagerly suckled from its oversized nipple, quenching the dehydration that had accumulated over a long night’s sleep. Squoosh looked back at her with his eternally smiling face. Ravel playfully waved one of his tentacles and smiled. She laid back down and held Squoosh over her head, letting is tentacles dangle loosely and tickle her.
“Well good morning sunshine,” Alice had appeared in the nursery door with a wry smile. Ravel didn’t hear her come in and blushed at having being caught in the middle of playing with Squoosh. “We’ve been up for a minute makin brekky. I didn’t want to wake you up. You seemed to be enjoying your sleep.” Ravel nodded an enthusiastic yes not wanting to take her pacifier out to talk.
Alice moved to the crib and leaned on the bars. She playfully waved a rattle over Ravel. Ravel played along grabbing at the toy and letting her be enamored by the soft jingling bell of the rattle.
“You are such a cute little baby,” Alice said with a smile. “Oh, speaking of you look like you need a diapee change.” Ravel gave Alice an accusatory look? She wasn’t wrong, Ravel did need a change, but so did Alice. For as much as Ravel was definitely the baby in the room, Alice herself was wearing nothing but a small t-shirt and her diaper from the night before, a diaper that also visibly needed to be changed. Despite that though, she didn’t skip a beat in taking charge, Ravel made that part easy.
“Oh, before we get you out though,” Alice said with a sudden thought. “This is so cute, we can make a little video out of this.” Alice’s creative gears were clearly turning as she quickly grabbed a digital camera from her desk. “All right, I’m gonna come back in, and you act like you just woke up, then we’re gonna pop open that onesie to see how full that diaper is. Sound good?” Ravel nodded. “Big girl words sweetie,” Alice was adjusting some setting on the camera.
“I’m good,” Ravel said letting the pacifier drop out of her mouth and get caught by the clip.
“Ok. Lay back down then,” Alice waved down with her hands as she made her way to the door. Remember you just woke up,” she exited and shut the door behind her. Ravel quickly put the pacifier back in her mouth and laid back down. It was just in time as Alice opened the door only a moment later.
“Ok guys it’s time for us to check up on Baby Bandsy,” Alice spoke with a dramatic flair and sounded like a call and response character in a kids show. “Looks like the baby’s awake,” Alice moved up the crib and the camera focused on Ravel. “Did you sleep well little baby?” Ravel nodded yes with the pacifier in her mouth. “Oh, I can tell you did,” the camera refocused to Ravel’s swollen crotch as Alice gave it a playful pat through the bars of the crib. With a series of snaps, she expertly opened the onesie while managing to keep hold of her camera. “Yeah, you slept really well. That diaper is soaked,” Alice rubbed against the bare diaper before quickly going back to Ravel’s face to catch a blushing expression shining through the crib bars. “Someone’s a soggy baby huh?” Alice made her way back to Ravel’s face and smiled sweetly from her side of the camera. “You want a diapee change Baby Bandsy?” Ravel nodded with a giggle. “Well, you’ll have to wait in the crib for bit,” Alice sat her camera gingerly down on a small stool so she could be in frame with Ravel. “Cuz Mommy also needs a diaper change, and mommy goes first.”
“Whaaaaat?” Ravel said with a childish pout.
“And scene,” Alice skipped over to her camera, her diaper rustling and jiggling as she went. “Ok I’ll edit this later. Let me get daddy to change me, then I’ll be back in here for you.”
“Wait you were serious?” Ravel protested.
“Oh, don’t cry. Babies like you gotta get used to staying in soaked diapers,” Alice sat her camera down and gave Ravel a wink. “I won’t be long. Try not leak in my crib while I’m gone.”
“Maybe I will out of spite,” Ravel continued her pout.
“It’s your bed you’re wetting,” Alice shrugged as she left the room. She left the door open so Ravel could hear her musically call “Daaaaaadyyyyyy,” down the hall. She watched with a smoldering grimace as Alice and Miguel walked by, waving at her. Ravel knew just how pathetic and cute she must have looked, pouting in a soaked diaper on the other side of the rib, and she kind of loved it. She smiled and hugged Squoosh again once Alice and Miguel were out of sight.
Alice wasn’t lying about Miguel’s speed. It wasn’t long before she returned, sporting a dry diaper.
“Ok baby let’s get that diaper changed,” Alice said while Miguel entered and quietly opened the crib. Ravel clambered out and Miguel left back to the living room. Alice patted the changing table with a smile and Ravel clambered on. “We tried the chest strap last time you ready for hands and feet?” Ravel nodded eagerly. “Getting into it I see,” Alice said with a knowing giggle. “I’m glad you are opening up,” Alice got to work securing Ravel’s hands and feet in the restraints and finishing it off with the chest strap. “Ok give us a wiggle. Let's see how well we got you tied down.” Ravel tentatively tried to move against the restraints. They held firm, keeping ravel firmly held in place and helpless. “Nice and still just how we like it,” Alice’s voice had acquired a sultry tone. “How’s that feel?”
“It feels uh …?” Ravel struggled to find the right word.
“Good I hope,” Alice said with a bit of worry.
“Yeah, good good. I’m just not sure how to describe it exactly,” As Ravel talked, she moved against the restraints and felt them hold her in place. With each failed movement she felt a wave of butterflies in her tummy and felt a distinct mix of anticipation and arousal.
“Well words are hard for little babies,” Alice got to work changing Ravel by opening the used diaper. “Try your best to lift up for me.” It was a little more difficult with the restraints on, but she did manage to raise up enough for Alice to remove the used diaper and toss it in the bin. “Ya know,” she said wiping Ravel down deliberately slowly with baby wipes. “One last little thing we can do up here. Get you all strapped down again and put a little vibrator on that diapee of yours.” Ravel blushed a bit. “Think about being all tied down and helpless, left on the changing table in your soggy diaper at the mercy of that vibrator.” Alice was now seductively applying some rash cream. “How do you like that idea?”
“It sounds like … a lot.” Ravel admitted, squirming against the restraints at Alice’s touch.
“Wel this,” Alice gestured to all of Ravel quivering in anticipation, “isn’t a no, but maybe we can come back to it later.” Alice toned down the sexy voice as she got a new diaper for Ravel. “Lift up,” Ravel obeyed once again and Alice slid the new diaper under her.
“I mean it does sound fun,” Ravel admitted as Alice applied baby powder. “But I just don’t know.”
“I totally understand baby,” Alice pulled up the front of the diaper and taped it snugly shut. “You don’t have to explain it to me. It’s all at your pace remember.”
“Yeah, ok,” Ravel smiled and Alice smiled back.
“Now let’s get down for brekky I’m sure you’re eager to try out the high chair and I am eager to plan our day.” Alice expertly freed Ravel from the changing table and Ravel stood up. She started to snap her onesie shut, but Alice stopped her with a slap to her hand, before kneeling and refastening it herself as Ravel blushed. The two quickly made their way downstairs and to the kitchen where Miguel and Alice's breakfast plates were already clean.
“The throne for our princess,” Alice gestured to the high chair with dramatic flair. Ravel giggled nervously but hoisted herself onto the chair. The chair was a firm and slightly uncomfortable wood, but the padding of the diaper helped alleviate that some. As soon as Ravel sat down Alice got to work securing the five-point harness around her, and Miguel sat the tray down over the arms of the chair and secured it with a simple latch mechanism.
“Final touch,” Miguel smiled holding out a large bib with a bunny eating a carrot on it. Ravel was still a little unsure of Miguel, but let the man tie the bib around her neck. Clearly Alice trusted him, he was her husband, and if Alice trusted him, he was probably trustworthy. Ravel just had to get used to him.
“We won’t stick you with baby food just yet,” Alice teased setting a plate on the high chair’s tray. “Daddy tried his hand at a southern breakfast; you’ll have to tell us how he did.” The food on the plate was very familiar to Ravel. It reminded her of breakfasts her mom used to make, and breakfasts Donna Sue used to make when Ravel had moved away from her mom. Biscuits with butter and strawberry jelly, bacon, sausage, and scrambled eggs. A baby bottle of chocolate milk complimented the food. Ravel grabbed a biscuit and took a bite. She gave an enthusiastic thumbs up. "I had thought about going into the city today, but thought you might want a day hanging out here first.”
“I’m fine either way,” Ravel answered after swallowing her bite. She immediately took another bite finishing off one of the two biscuits.
“She was planning on going ‘walkies’ in the city,” Miguel answered. “I told her maybe you aren’t ready for that level of culture shock.”
“What does ‘walkies’ mean?”
“You’ll find out.”
“Regardless,” Alice cut off her husband. “We’re pivoting to hanging out here today. We’ll get the play pen out, watch some movies or cartoons, play with some toys. Have a fun baby day.”
“Sounds great,” Ravel said with her mouth full of bacon.
“That’s good cuz you don’t get to say no,” Alice booped Ravel on the nosed and Ravel rolled her eyes.
“Don’t act like you aren’t eager for some little time too?” Miguel cut in.
“Hush Daddy!” Ravel giggled at the exchange.
“Little time sounds like fun,” Ravel said swinging her legs from the high chair. Alice smiled.
“Oh, and after I was going to record a Baby Bouncer Power Hour. If you woulnd’t mind being a guest. You can be in the bouncer for this one.”
“Isn’t the whole point of the show …”
“All right daddy!” Alice cut Ravel off by turning her attention to Miguel.
“You need me to help set the play pen up?” Miguel asked knowingly.
“Yes please!” The two quickly got to work setting up the play pen while Ravel continued eating.
The playpen was fairly large, it took up close to a square yard of space, but Alice and Miguel knew exactly what furniture to move and where to place them. They had done this enough times for it to become routine. The playpen itself was made of four mesh walls held up by simple metal poles. It had a soft bottom but this was complimented by a series of blankets that Alice and Miguel tossed over it. The walls were about two feet tall. It would have been trivial for either Ravel or Alice to step over if they needed to. Much like this morning in the crib though, Ravel got a sensation that that was wrong. It was against the rules. They had to stay in the play pen until they were let out that was the fun.
Eventually the couple had gotten the playpen assembled and into a spot in front of the television in the living room. It seemed natural in its position, Ravel could tell it was a usual spot.
“All right I’m gonna grab some toys,” Alice sang as she skipped up the stairs. Miguel wordlessly smiled and made his way over to Ravel.
“All done?” he gestured to the empty plate. Ravel wordlessly held it up and he took it behind her to the kitchen. Ravel took note that he didn’t let her out of the highchair, but she also figured that was part of the game. Leave the baby stuck in the high chair while the adults, or rather the one adult and other baby doing a good facsimile of an adult, set things up. Ravel could appreciate this. She got to work finishing her bottle of chocolate milk until it was deigned that she could be released.
Alice made several trips to the nursery and back to the play pen dropping an assortment of toys with each trip. When the playpen was stuffed with toys, she looked in with her hands on her hips satisfied.
“Ok let’s get into some play time outfits!” Alice approached the high chair with excitement. “I would love to show you all of my toys!”
