Dry Nights???

[KansasMom]

How many dry nights would you go before you stop diapering at night?

Would you do no diapers at naps first or nights first? What if naps are still sometimes wet but nights are always dry?

Just trying to get an idea for the road ahead...thanks ahead for your input!

We have discontinued the naptime diaper and have tried a couple times at night (when my son doesn't want to wear one) but that has led to middle-of-the-night bed changes and also my son still waits for his diaper to do poop. So, naptime so far we have stopped but nightime is still diaper time for us, at least until we get the poop in the pot...

We still do the nighttime diaper, my kids know not to poop in the diaper as we have told them that is "yukky".

Mine are 3 1/2 and at the moment being 5 and a half months pregnant I just am too exhausted to get up in the night and change wet sheets. We did all the "get them out of bed and pee" before I went to bed but it still didn't help them to stop peeing in the bed (NOT EVERYNIGHT I must stress) . I just think they go to bed so exhausted they aren't waking up to pee. I also suspect they are a bit scared to walk down to the toilet at night even tho we keep a light on for them.

When my children were dry all night that was my sign they were ready to potty train for me. I kept the diaper on at night for about a week when we started, just to assure a dry bed, than they went to underwear. This did work for each of my boys. By 3 they were all potty trained night and day except for my oldest son, he took a while longer for nights. My oldest used those pull ups for nights for a time. But pull ups were never used during the day, I used only underwear, but that is what worked for us and not everyone.

Each child is so different and finding something that clicks takes time and mistakes. Hope all goes smoothly with potty training for you.

Angela was trained(wearing undies) days and nights by age 2 but then we moved from FL to AL and my MIL introduced her to pullups. :roll: I, being poor and unable to keep up that little habit, quit buying them or accepting them from MIL and taught my daughter (who was 5 or 6 at that time) just how much FUN doing laundry could be! She stayed dry every night since :wink:
