I know this sounds like 'par for the course' for a (nearly) two-year old, but I am having TERRIBLE problems getting my 22 month old to get dressed/ have his nappy changed in the morning.It's becoming a positive wrestling match. I've tried games/ negotiating/ trying to get him to help etc all to no avail - he always has a complete screaming fit, writhing around the floor, and taking them off again.
We have an au pair, and now she's getting too nervous of his tantrums to help (when he's throwing his 35lb around he's physically quite hard to control!)
I work, and we need to get him off to nursery at 8.30 so we don't have loads of time for coaxing etc.
(Incidently, as soon as he's dressed, he's the picture of innocence and calm again!)
Can anyone share any tips/ experience - PLEASE!
