My daughter has been clean during the day for a while now and I've just been using pull ups at night.


Having reduced what she drinks before bed I've now stopped nappies at night. For the first week there were no accidents, we then had two in one week. Problem is she gets so upset, even though I leave the bathroom light on for her I wonder if she just is to little to be clean at night (she is just over 2 1/2).


She has never had an accident during her afternoon nap hence thinking it was a good time to ditch the nappies entirely!


Any advice / tips greatly appreciated.


Thank you

hiya, I took nappies away at night when my daughter was around same age as your LO. first few days she didn't have any accidents and was fine but then she didn't want to get up at night and use potty. everytime i was getting up to make sure she makes a pee, sometimes with some negotiations going for a while.now she is 3 1/2 and sleeps through witout getting wet and uses toilet at night when she is very full.


good luck

My boy's the same age and hasn't had nappies at night since January, 8 months on he sleeps through some nights and others he wakes us up for a wee. On the very odd occasion he wakes up having wet himself. I've heard being dry at night has a lot to due with a hormone called vasopressin?? I guess what I'm saying is that it can vary from week to week, month to month. Sounds like your girl is doing great so far. :)

Ladys please please i need your advise, My son is 2years 2 month we wake up dry at nights, he never says he want to use a loo but as soon as he starts touching himself i take him to toilet and he will happily wee, dry afternoon naps, dry short walks to play ground but not number 2:( he can go for few days without doing number 2 and then he will do it in to his pants. How can i teach him telling me and doing number 2 in to potty or toilet.


Many thanks Dee

Mine didn't leave nappies during the night, until nearly 5 years old, I did not want to get stress or have to get up during the night to change the bed, so just left it until he was ready. My advice is not to get stress, go with the flow and leave them until they are ready, every child is different, some leave nappies day an night when they are two, some take longer. My opinion is that if the child is having lots of accidents, he/she is not ready. I put him back in nappies to take him to nursery when he was 2.5 years old because he was having lots of accidents with number 2, after two months I took them off again, and no accidents at all
  • 4 weeks later...

My little boy is still in nappies at night (2.5 yrs old)... he drinks way too much to be out of them just yet and also has sleeping problems generally so I don't plan to take nappies off yet.


I do have a friend who managed to take away nappies at night and used the Pampers bed mats, which protect the bed. I guess your child will have to adjust to how it feels and waking if s/he needs to go to the toilet but as with potty training I imagine all trial and error.


Be patient and I am sure wet bed will be a memory soon! Good luck :)

    • Thanks for stating the bleeding obvious
    • Yes, they are intelligent ❤️ Various methods of deterring the foxes (aka stopping them coming and crapping on your lawn) have been suggested in this thread. If you don't want to try them, and prefer to keep clearing up the crap and complaining about it, well that's YOUR choice 🙄
    • Weather going to be hot from today thru to weekend so I hope all dog owners walk their pooches early in the morning or in the cool of the evening. Woofers can survive the odd day without going for walkies in the heat or having to race around with their pack in the heat. Try brain games with them around the house - hid treats for them to find, given them a kong..  Mental stimulation is as good and beneficial as walkies and does tire them out.     And whilst on the subject of heat and dogs, do remember that leaving a couple of windows open while you run into a shop etc to get groceries etc …. Is not good enough / the inside of a car obviously gets very very hot… and one could be delayed in ship, thru no fault of your own - meanwhile, your woofer is suffering.  Common sense really and if you are a new owner, probably really never thought it through ie walking dogs in heat or leaving them in car in heat. The majority of people on this site are caring, supportive people only offering advice, expressing concern when they see stupidity.  
    • Weirdly (well, weird as it happened very shortly after I had posted that) I got a notice the other day (the first time in the near enough twenty years since I joined the forum) telling me I had reached my limit of "reactions". I posted a screenshot on here. However I did not actually seem be prevented  from  making any more!   What is your purpose in doing that? This is a useful, long running and well loved (by me, anyway) local forum. It provides information on matters of local interest, an opportunity to easily sell or give away  unwanted things and buy or be given things you want, information on upcoming local events and interest groups. It is also a well moderated place to discuss both local and wider issues. And it is used by a variety of different kinds of people, as would be expected - we all have different personalities, experiences and opinions, and that's part of what makes the forum such a great local asset. Since rescuing the forum when the previous admin left - it could have disappeared altogether - Joe has put and continues to put an enormous amount of work into setting it up on a different platform (?) , maintaining it, and keeping it a safe and pleasant place for everyone using it. I'm sure you and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels to me that dissecting "posters and their patterns" in the way you describe - presumably then to post the results on here?  - is just going to sow seeds of discord which could stop some people posting altogether and generally change the whole nature of the forum. I think that would be very sad, and I hope that that isn't your intention? Are you going to include your own posts in this? You have joined the forum relatively recently, and seem to be self-described as a "Pain".
