Wanna come train R? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2264034 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 21:19:15 +0000 blackbird 2264034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We put a little potty in her room. She just started waking up dry after a few weeks of being day trained and then after three nights in a row, we ditched the diapers and just went with it. She has access to the toilet and knows it's where she does her business. And like your LO, doesn't want to wear diapers. In fact, she would take her bedtime diaper off in the morning, then pee in the toilet, and put the diaper in the hamper</p> <p>We never did the nighttime wake ups. She consolidated her pees after 3-4 weeks of training. A few of my girlfriends at work said their kids just naturally shifted after awhile, too, so I waited to see if that was the case </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2264018 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 20:56:25 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2264018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just insisted she wear diapers for nights. Wish I had better advice. No naps around here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263997 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 20:27:06 +0000 travelgirl1 2263997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks guys! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263717 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 13:56:51 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2263717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Could you use a plastic cover of some sort over underwear? I got some flip trainers to do this with when he starts staying a little drier at night. I also saw a DIY for training pants that have a waterproof layer sewn on the outside and extra absorbency sewn on the inside, but they still look like the regular underwear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263714 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 13:49:33 +0000 PinkElephant 2263714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>if you want to keep the diaper on, I've heard people say that putting 1-PC zipper pjs on backwards helps when kids refuse to keep a diaper on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263606 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 11:42:49 +0000 Jess1483 2263606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: I do a potty break when I nurse my newborn. He doesn't need it (he'll wake up), but it's usually around 4:30/5, and sometimes he won't go back to sleep, so if I take him to the potty around 2, I know he will. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263555 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 10:58:58 +0000 travelgirl1 2263555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: I put a diaper on her but she just rips it right off. She's a strong willed one!</p> <p>@birdofafeather: I thought of this but she had a queen bed and rolls all over it so that would be a lot of piddle pads. I might try a plastic sheet under her regular one to save the mattress though.</p> <p>@Jess1483: she doesn't drink enough as it is. But the waking at intervals is interesting. Although that kills me with a newborn in the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263503 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 10:14:51 +0000 birdofafeather 2263503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we put piddle pads (the dog kind) under her fitted sheet. we haven't done it for nighttime, but this worked for naps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263448 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 09:31:31 +0000 Jess1483 2263448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you'd have to limit liquids and wake her at intervals. My understanding is its a developmental milestone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263441 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 09:23:11 +0000 Mamaof2 2263441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelgirl1: As I told my DS when he was day trained and not night trained "until your brain figures out that it needs to wake you up when you have to pee you might have accidents at night and you need to wear a diaper"</p> <p>No way to really train them yourself.</p> <p>Although limiting liquids and peeing right before nap/bed always helps! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/potty-training-for-naps-and-night-time#post-2263432 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 09:12:01 +0000 travelgirl1 2263432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How did you do this? I wasn't planning to tackle it yet, but A is so against diapers now she rips them off in bed so she is really forcing our hand. We have tried switching to pull ups for sleep, calling them special underwear but she isn't fooled. And we learned to our cost that those things hold zero poop so we are thinking to take the plunge. Any tips would be hugely appreciated! </p>
