DS 28 months just recently started training few weeks ago, he knows when to go himself as he asks but come night time after being washed he does it once, then teeth, hands, then bed than cries hysterically for an hour as he constantly wants to go to bathroom but he doesn't do anything, so put him back in bed then he just starts crying saying peepee, we have just recently moved house and taken him out of nursery within the same timescale due to health, as he has antibodies problems and is attempting consultant

So you're potty training and he's refusing to settle because he wants to use the toilet but doesn't do anything when he's taken? It sounds like he's had a lot of disruption recently so maybe he just needs more reassurance bedtime? Do you stay with hi until he falls asleep? What did you do at bedtime pre potty training?

Bedtime previously was wash, sing songs then able to leave him to fall asleep on his own, one week before moving he literally told me nappy off toilet and went straight to the actual toilet so he's not really used potty, since then he's able to tell me he needs to go but at night time he just keeps crying hysterically saying he wants to go every 5 mins before falling asleep, am doing gradual withdrawal again at bedtime, sing songs, cuddles etc then sneak away when I know his eyes are shutting, but even doing that is a nightmare at the moment as he starts kicking at the bed plays up a lot at night

Does he still nap? Do you think it could be over tiredness? Moving house and leaving nursery would be very unsettling in which case I'd recommend lots of cuddles and kisses and staying with him until he's asleep. Is he generally ok? Could it just be terrible twos?
