Ds is 3 and has been in pants since age 2 and everything is fine....during the day.
At night he refuses to wear nappies, ges in tantrums and pull it off.
up until now i tricked him into putting a pull-up when he was asleep and telling him it was pants if he half woke up.
but this doesnt work anymore. last night i had to change twice his bedsheets/duvet cover...
To complicate everything, he also wakes up saying "i want you all the time mummy" and wont settle until i sleep in his bed or tae him to our bed.
As you can imagine, i did not sleep a lot last night.

what can i do? how do i get out of this?

i cant let him sleep in his pee. ive tried putting a potty next to him but he doesnt wake up before peeing, only after when the bed is wet.

help!!

forgot to say - he does go for a wee before going to bed and i limit drinks in the evening.
he has also been a big pee-er (compare to Ds2 for instnce)

In a word: no.
You just have to wait until he starts having dry nappies in the morning. It could be tomorrow or it could be after he starts school :(

have you tried duct tape over the nappy tape? Wink
