Gs is 3.5 yrs he has special needs. He is still in nappie/pull ups . The problem is he takes out his private parts and he wees over things toys, clothes, furniture, rugs, floor its not possible to watch him constantly also theres times he likes to be alone..

I'm trying to think of clothes that may help. Dungarees, onesie. Possibly the baby vests/body suits. I'm not 100% sure if age 2-3 baby vests would fit him so I need to measure him.

Me/dd can only afford places like George, primark prices I'm trying to find non fleece onesies which seems to he hard.

I'm woundering if there's anything i haven't thought of or maybe other online shops.

If the zipper is an issue you can always try putting them on bank to front. One of my friends used to do this for her DC ...

H&M sell bodysuits/vests with long/short/no sleeves and sleepsuits that go up to age 3-4 years. Could even put them under dungerees or jumpsuits if necessary. Just normal pricing, I used them for my son until he outgrew the biggest size.

M&S also have their adaptive range of sleepsuits and bodysuits/vests that go up to 16 years. They're pricey but theres some second hand ones listed on Vinted so you could get some cheaper that way.

And put stuff on backwards so it's harder for him to reach the fastenings.

A safety nappy pin may also help if he can manage poppers

I work in special education.

This is quite common.

It’s a hard time because he’s showing signs of being ready to toilet train but you also cannot have him seeing everywhere!

What we have found works to keep them from seeing everywhere is the leg suit swimsuits put on backwards so the zip is at the back. The swimsuits tend to keep them cooler and are very quick to rinse and dry.

Then we have symbols for those ready to use them and those who aren’t we just take to the toilet regularly to teach the cause and effect of needing a wee, where to go and where to do it.

Thank you. I managed to get a couple of bits from vinted.

I think so to. But dd won't listen i don't know if its because shes stressed, tired hard work with special needs child or she can't be bothered. But its hard to because life can be busy within the home. Its so easy to miss.

Anyway I have orded 12 onesie/dungaree type clothing. I will probably add some baby vests and thats it.

Encourage dd to speak to school staff.

Term starts soon and I know in my school we’ve always been happy to support and even initiate toilet training when appropriate signs are shown.

It’s much easier in a school setting when there’s multiple staff tag teaming for 6 hours than parenting the other 18 alone and all through the holidays.

What do you think of doing a chart with him ,a star for each time he stays dry and that becomes a toy for him. Hopefully that will work.

He won't understand star charts or anything similar, he's non verbal. Has very little understanding. He spins everything even if its not spinable. Doesn't play. Likes sitting on the floor in corners .
