I wish I knew It's been months and we aren't there. I'm tempted to just get rid of diapers and see if she can manage. We've been day trained (and nap trained) since March. She's completely inconsistent and her overnights. But I know that she can do it, she has!

We are still using diapers too, just regular pampers cruisers. I was nervous to move to pull ups from a leak perspective.

I told myself that if we went two weeks dry we were there! She made it 12 days :(. We haven't repeated that stint. That was back in May. I'm over diapers for this one.

@Mrs. Yoyo: We have started using Goodnites, which are made for "older" kids. As in, my 3.5 year old is a size small. They are plain white and seem softer than regular pull-ups, and also more absorbent. We were having a little leakage with regular pull-ups.

Right away, but my son was older when we day trained.

Night training is a myth though, there is nothing you can do to facilitate it (at least that's my understanding, it's hormone or enzyme related, if that isn't being excreted, they will still have accidents).

Yay for her!

After about 2-3 weeks my son was dry almost every night. We kept him in diapers at night for about 3 months after he was potty trained and then stopped. I was also in my 3rd trimester with LO2 at that time, so I didn't want to deal with wet sheets at 3am. He's had maybe 1-2 accidents in a year! That said, I was totally prepared to continue night diapering for years, if it had been necessary.

Both at the same time!

So I've heard it has to do with bladder control and it's different for every kid. My DD woke up dry for months and months before we potty trained, so we just thought nothing of putting her in underwear for overnight, once we had her in them for daytime. My grandma said my mom was like that, but my aunt had a small bladder and so she'd wake her to potty around 11 PM, before she went to bed herself, and that prevented overnight accidents. I'll leave it up to others to decide if that's a nice thing to do to a sleeping kid, but it worked! Haha!

@regberadaisy: I know! That's what I thought when she told me. Mine would be up and ready to play!
