Guest guest Posted June 19, 2001 Report Share Posted June 19, 2001 BTW - when do people find that they get their DS's reliably dry at night? (life traumas apart) With DD was nearly 5..... Caro I'm also very interested in this thread. DS (3.5) has been dry-ish during the day for a year now (-ish because we still have farily regular accidents - 3 or 4 a week). I haven't even tried him at night yet. I just can't bear to think of having to change the bed in the middle of the night. He is quite a wet wetter at night. We use pampers premiums at bedtime and it is sodden in the morning. He's not in a rush to take if off when we gets up, so some of the wet is certainly from once he is awake in the morning. Even so, it's still very full before he wakes up. His day time accidents are from being too busy with what he is doing to go to the loo. We don't get puddles, just wet pants and sometimes through to the trousers (he then finishes off in the toilet). Part of me thinks he's being lazy at night too and because he has a nappy, he uses it. But part of me thinks, if he can't always be bothered to go to the loo during the day, why should he be bothered at night. No, I'm not brave enough yet.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2001 Report Share Posted June 19, 2001 > Mind you he still insists on poo-ing in the potty and I haven't worked > out the bribery that will get him to sit on the toilet. My DS3 will only do a poo in the toilet if he sits on the rim of the bowl rather than the seat (or any trainer seat). He sort of grips with the backs of his knees and obviously feels more secure that way. > at the tender age of 4 and 4 days > he will be starting school in September. : - ( Aw, bless.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2001 Report Share Posted June 19, 2001 IMHO no one knows whether your > child wears a nappy at night, so you haven`t got peer pressure to > contend with! > Barbara Well exactly. My two grandsons aged 8 and 5 still wear pull ups at night cos my DD2 Tammy can't be bothered to change their beds every morning; it's a big secret from their friends, and they can't go and stay with anyone but me for the moment because of it..but that's about the only disadvantage. My own boys (it always seemed to be the boys) still had accidents till after their Barmitzvahs at aged 13, so there you go. As my editor said to me today... " Reeeeelax!
