Overnight PTing

[tennisgal]

At what point did you stop putting your kiddo in diapers overnight?  At this point, W is dry in the morning about 90% of the time.  He did not have any accidents during the day this week at all.

We still have diapers so we are using them. It's been 3 weeks and he's usually dry when he wakes up. I don't think I'll buy more when I run out

Adeline isn't close. But Edie wetted at night for a long time. I never did anything about it. WE had her in pull ups and once she went through one pack totally dry, I just didn't buy any more.

Once we were at that point I asked G each night whether she wanted a night diaper or underwear. After about a month she picked underwear so that's when we switched.

This is ada. I'm not sure what to do. I want to keep her in pull ups at night at least through our trip in May because we won't have laundry facilities to wash sheets if she did have an accident. So if she's still good then, I will probably stop after that trip.

I had her in pull ups for 2 months but she was always dry. We've been in underwear only for a while. She never was a night peer though

Probably up until about 3-4mos ago, he was usually a heavy overnight pee-er, so I'm pretty shocked that he has mostly been dry. We did cut out the sippy of milk right before bed and really limit liquids after dinner recently though, so I'm sure that helped

We're not. Close to overnight training but the last two weeks we've been skipping nap diapers

[laurack]

pretty soon after p/ting. She hasn't worn a diaper to bed in months. I was planning to keep her wearing them but she said she didn't want to.

probably once every couple weeks or so, maybe once a month she wets her bed. It's not a huge deal though, she's usually kicked off all her blankets/toys so we just need to wash the sheet and wipe down the mattress.

We don't allow her anything to drink after dinner is over.

Ella wasn't in underwear at night until she was 4, and even then, I would wake her in the middle of the night to go.

Kate just isn't interested in PTing altogether.

Ugh, I don't know what to do. This is an area we are really struggling with. He has been PTd since September and he still soaks the bed practically every night. This is after repeated trips to the bathroom at night before he goes to sleep. He never has any accidents in his underwear during the day, and usually his nap pull up is dry...although he has been going in it lately. He knows he's supposed to go to the potty, but I just think he wakes up, relaxes, and unleashes. It's really frustrating and I don't know what to do. We have to change the sheets and mattress pad every day.

Have you ever thought about using Goodnights Bed Pads? They're disposable. Ella would have an occasional accident, and all I had to do was pull it off the bed, and replace it with a new one. No having to replace sheets (unless your LO moves off of it, which it's a pretty wide sheet if you put it horizontally).

We're still in diapers overnight because he refuses to give up with water. We need to break that habit before we can get rid of the diapers.

We are not even close to ditching an overnight diaper. She's been PT since April and still wakes with a soaking wet diaper every morning.

He will be in night diapers until he wakes up dry consistently. I'm in no hurry for that. He wakes up wet in the morning but is usually dry after nap. I just don't trust him yet, and I personally enjoy the break from active training.

dS1 has been day trained since 2.5 but still wets the bed 1-2 nights a week. The pedi is not concerned (at 5) and said Some kids night train later and we can discuss it at his 6 year old visit. So no rush.

With L it was several (I think 5ish) months after she was daytime potty trained. I think she would pee while waking up in the morning. With B, she was done with diapers overnight about a week after she was daytime potty trained. With both I had to get them to the bathroom right after waking up. I haven't even thought about sending R to bed without diapers, although she is dry at nap times.

She still wakes up wet every morning, so probably not for awhile here.

I will invest no effort in night time PTing at this age, they grow into it (usually). H was dry overnight at 18mos and I had her in a pull up a year after PTing to avoid her having pee accidents on the crib mattress for her sister in the womb.
d is pretty much dry now and was a month after PTing. Sometimes she comes back to sleep with me and I don't want to risk pee in my bed so she wears a regular diaper overnight.

Last night he woke up to pee but then he was still wet right when I got him in this morning so I'm keeping them in him for awhile I assume.

We went cold turkey when we started to PT. I thought pull ups might be confusing and might not motivate him to learn to wake and call us at night if he needs us. We also limit fluids 1 hr before bed.

C has been dry overnight for the last 4 weeks.  However, I will keep her in the pullups until they are gone, so we are hoping to be done by her 3rd bday.
