Adult Baby

  Adult Baby: Definition

An adult baby is an individual who engages in behaviors typical of infants or toddlers, often as part of a role-playing interest known as adult baby/diaper lover (ABDL). This can include wearing diapers, drinking from bottles, crawling, or seeking caregiver-like attention. For some, it is purely comforting or stress-relieving; for others, it carries a sexual element.

Characteristics

• Role-play focus: Participants may enjoy regressing into a childlike state.

• Non-sexual vs. sexual: For some, it’s about comfort and emotional care; for others, it involves erotic expression.

• Community: Many adult babies connect with others online or in private groups, often under the broader ABDL community.

Broader Understanding

The adult baby identity highlights how regression can serve psychological needs like safety, stress relief, or intimacy. While stigmatized, it is consensual role-play that should be respected when practiced safely between adults.
