forbsay Report post Posted July 22, 2007 Well, I have made the decision re the title. Mattress protector is on the sheet. We have been having chats about what he needs to do if he needs the toilet during the night. Wish us luck - think we will need it! Forbsay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

forbsay Report post Posted July 22, 2007 i think he understands. It took us a long time to get him out of nappies during the day but it did click eventually. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

forbsay Report post Posted July 22, 2007 My little boy does not like being wet either. Also he has the incentive of getting another new bus. He calls it an aeroplane bus - to me and you this is a bus for airport transfers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LizC Report post Posted July 24, 2007 Hi May I ask how old is your son? just my 7 yr old AS son is still in pull ups at bedtime. Think he will be for a long time. He is just soaking by the morning despite going to the toilet last thing and I mean last thing as doesn't settle till about 11 and somtimes his bedding is wet too come morning! good on you for doing it, hope it all works out well!! will be loads cheaper. I know they are all different, I have 2 others kids and my youngest who is 3 has been done since 2 months before turning 3, he is nearly 4 now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forbsay Report post Posted July 24, 2007 Hello He is 7. When i started to toilet train him - i would explain that when he drank something, it would go into his tummy and then he would go to the toilet. That is what clicked for him I personally don't think he was ready before now to try the no nappies at night time. I just put him in his boxer shorts. I have also given him an incentive for a new bus. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forbsay Report post Posted July 25, 2007 (edited) Hi Liz Have been thinking about your post. My little boy used to wake up soaking in the morning as well - however, in the past wee while he was either dry and or just damp and there is where I took the lead to take him out of pull ups. He was dry again last night. Take care Forbsay Edited July 25, 2007 by forbsay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
