How long did your kid wear pull-ups to sleep?

[kaycee]

My DD potty trained the end of June last year and still wears a diaper overnight. It still is wet everyday, so I'm not doing anything about it yet.

[jinkies]

Both my kids wore them for roughly 2 years after they were fully potty trained.

[simpsongal]

DS is a night pee-er and he insists on having a water bottle w/him in bed. So I foresee him wearing them for naps/night for a while.

[dulcemariamar]

Almost a full year after PT

[melodramatic26]

DD1 was almost 5 before we made the switch at night. She had been pt since she was 3. When we did finally switch she had only 1 accident.

Dd2 asked for underwear but she's still wet every morning. She's slmost 4, but from our experience with dd1, we aren't rushing to get rid of the nighttime diaper.

[moopoint17]

Ds1 was potty trained at 3.5yo. Now at 5yo, he still wears a pull up to bed.

[whereintheworld]

6.5yo is only dry about 1-2 times a week, so he is still in them. 4.5yo is not. 3yo is in diapers overnight despite being PT'd for a year. Definitely kid-dependent.

[magpie]

We gave them up pretty early (like a month after training), but we take her to pee at 10pm, right before we go to bed. We've only had one pee soaked bed incident and that was the night that we were like, "She doesn't really need to be taken to pee at 10pm anymore..." WRONG. I guess we'll be continuing this practice until she's in college, lol. I actually bought a huge box though and ended up donating them to my local diaper bank, so I didn't feel too bad about it.

[chickadee77]

No help here. L has been day-trained for a few months, but is still exploding size 6 overnights plus doubler at night, even after restricting fluid before bed.

Granted, she just turned two, so I'm hoping she'll eventually start being dryer overnight.

[lishie]

With DS1 he trained in the day right around 3, but he wore a pull up to bed until 5. He rarely had accidents once he turned 4, but when we stopped them he had one accident. We told him it was fine, but he was so traumatized he insisted on wearing them for another year.

With DS2, even as a baby he was rarely wet at night. Once he potty trained during the day he never needed pull ups at night.

[badtzmaru22]

This is going to be so kid-dependent. DD PT herself at 29mo, but probably would have sooner had I not been pregnant and miserable. She was in pull ups at night for maybe another month, but it was because I had a newborn, and didn't want to deal with MOTN accidents on top of the baby wakings.

But what happened was DD got mad about the pull ups, and woke up MOTN to go to the bathroom, and DS was a unicorn Bebe sleeper.

[ssmjlm]

E PT'd between Christmas and New Year's and still wears a pull-up to bed. It's still wet when she wakes and I'm in no rush to worry about overnight.

I was a late night trainer, so she may unfortunately have the same issue.

[auntie]

Umm, never?

DS was dry overnight before I trained him. He had a cast iron bladder.

[lmb5109]

I bought some of these that I can wash in case of an accident.

[chickens987]

A year.

I don't know when she really stopped needing them. She just always wore them. Then one day I realized that she was potentially being lazy and peeing in them after she woke up. So we took them away, and she's been dry 8/9 nights.

[chickens987]

Oh, and we did the double sheet thing - mattress pad, sheet, mattress pad, sheet. Because I didn't want to have to remake a bed in the middle of the night.

[quesyrah]

DS is 6.5 and is just starting to have the occasional dry night.

DD just turned 3 and has been PT about 4 months and has stayed dry every single night. She doesn't nap anymore.

[picksthemusic]

DD daytime PTed at 2.5. She was probably 3.5 before she was dry at naps and nighttime.

This is DD. We just bought more Pull Ups

[irishbride2]

With DD, about another 8 months. But she PTed fairly early.

With DS, two weeks.

ETA: I know several 6 year olds who still sleep in a pull up though. So it all depends. 

[redheadk]

DD was potty trained well over a year ago and still wears a pull up to bed. I have zero interest in doing anything about it. When she stops peeing over night, she'll stop wearing them. I am not waking up in the MOTN to change sheets.

From what friends IRL have said, it's one of those things you can either put a lot of effort into or just wait out until they do it on their own.

[katiescarlett]

Go for the big box.

DD stopped not long after PTing but she hadn't pred overnight in a very long time. DS1 is 7.5 and we still havent stopped because every once in awhile he pees.

[mrsGreeko]

Well IME buying a big box of overnight pull ups is almost a way to guarantee they stop needing them!

My oldest and middle took probably a year or 18 months. They both PT right before and right after 2 and were done with pull ups around 3ish.

My DS has been day trained since 23 months and is now 4.5 and still needs an overnight pull up 80% of the time.

[irish]

The last day she wore a pull-up was the night before her 5th birthday...

Yep. I am SO sick of buying pull ups and am irrationally annoyed that DD can't stay dry yet.  It's terrible.  Totally not her fault. 

She is SUCH a heavy sleeper.  Every now and then she will wake up dry but she's not consistent.

[thebreakfastclub]

I did not do pull ups overnight, just kept the overnight diaper going until we didn't need it anymore.

DS day trained at 2y 5m, and he was in underwear overnight right before he turned 3. I did nothing to make this happen, except to limit liquids after dinner and have him pee before bed.

DS2 still wears one but wakes up dry 99.5% of the time. I've just been worried about pulling it juuuuuuuuust in case and he doesn't mind, so I'm KOKO for now.

So, it's very kid-dependent. 

Same. Kid two isn't even potty trained yet but wakes up dry all the time.

[hymen]

By the time he was day trained (3 years and 2 months), DS1 was night trained too, and never needed to wear pull-ups at night. But I know a lot of his classmates still wore them for nap time in pre-k (so 4-5 year olds).

I totally don't expect to be that lucky when we start to PT DS2 in a couple weeks.

ETA: I should mention DS1 apparently has a bladder of steel, because he can be awake for an hour before he (we) realizes he hasn't peed yet.

[sandyapples]

DD1: 1.5 years. She was never dry overnight until I took away the pull up. She would pee in it when awake, did not gaf.

DD2: 9 months or so. She has been wearing undies at night for a couple of months. She still has occasional accidents.

[closertofine]

Dd is almost 5 and has never woken up dry. Pull ups 4 life.

Ds is 3 and wakes up dry at least 75% of the time. So he's indefinitely in them until his average increases.
