to have sellotaped my toddlers nappy on

[fernie3]

my 17 month old hates nappies, in the day not too bad at night she takes it off and wees everywhere which is very annoying but tonight went it to check on her and found the nappy of and the poo on her face. I had a fit and have now put a big bit of packing tape around her middle - I hear her trying to get it off but obviously she cant...she is now asleep with her nappy on.

I keep imagining the look of horror on peoples faces if they saw her but really its better than eating her own poo isnt it?

DS2 did this as well. Nothing more horrific than waking to see the nappy off and poo everywhere - he literally fingerpainted in it on the wall! I could have cried. Luckily it was in the winter, and we put zip up sleepers on him backwards. We then had to use a sheet-thin grobag and put it on backwards when the weather got warm. (this was when he was 3) He's only just a couple months ago (at almost 4) been able to sleep at night in normal pajamas without stripping. Thank goodness - was beginning to think we would NEVER get past this stage.
