My son will be three in 3 weeks. He's been without diapers at home everyday and all night for at least a month now. We were allowing him to use diapers at nap time at school for about 2 weeks. We had Christmas break and while home we stopped using the nap diaper as well. However, he has only used the potty at school once and that was when I took him to the bathroom. This morning I took him and he went at school, but was initially a little reluctant. Subsequently he refused to go the rest of the morning and soiled himself during nap time. I asked the teacher to wake him up and take him to the potty but he went before they attempted to wake him. Any advice on how to get him to go at school? I'm not putting him back in diapers. It seems counterproductive, but I'm sure that is what the teacher wants me to do. Help!

My LO 2 was the same way and she refused to use the potty at school for 3 months. She was potty trained at home and out of the house but only when I was around. It took her a long time to associate potty time with other people (daddy, mil, teachers). Her teacher told me to be patient and let LO decide when she is ready. I sent her in undies and Pullups in those 3 months and she was mostly dry...she just held her pee a lot!:-(

Thanks but my son will ride it out until we pull the plug. It was the same with respect to other areas of self care. I don't know what else to do but if we put him back in a pull up he will regress.

Any progress? I'm having a similar problem now. @Mammabare:

@Gracecat Yes! The teacher in the class implemented a potty chart/sticker reward at school and it seemed to do the trick! Initially he was still having some accidents at school after nap, but she then switched the potty chart/sticker reward to if you poop in the potty (because this was usually when he had to poop) and that seems to have worked as well. We've had two weeks with no accidents at school! So it has been much better.
