Should i phone nursery and have a moan?

[Marne]

Just picked dd2 up from sn nursery, drove home (20 min drive) had lunch and then realized she hasn't got a nappy on just jogging bottoms (no pants), dd2 is not toilet trained, this means she has been without a nappy since snack time (11am). Amazingly she is dry (but thats not the point).Surely they should have remembered to put a nappy on her?

Should i phone up and ask who changed her? or do i just put it down to a mistake? Its not as though they are rushed off their feet (there are more adults than children) .

id be sorely tempted to phone up and ask when dd2 became toilet trained and gush about how wonderful it is!
in reality tho i would probably wait till tomorrow and casually drop it into the conversation, some people cant take criticism so phoning might get their backs up if you know what i mean, hopefully they will be suitably horrified when you mention it tomorrow that it will never happen again!

well done to dd for keeping dry by the way!

Dear me! I'm sure they would have quickly realised they had forgot to put her nappy on had she wet herself.

I a gree with glittery, speak to someone tomorrow rather than phoning.

I didn't even notice she had no nappy on until she started taking her trousers off and putting a nappy on herself . I wish she would use the potty, she knows when she needs to go as she put her own nappy on, wee'd in it and took it off.

She's not at nursery now until thursday so i will mention it then.

ah so shes nappy trained rather than toilet trained, lol! that's good though that she knows when she needs to go, just need to find a way to substitite the nappy for a toilet......would bribery work?

You could try sitting dd on the potty in a nappy, then sitting dd on potty in a nappy and opening the straps (or loosening them gradually depending how reistant) Then place the nappy in the potty and sit dd on potty.That is how I moved ds from nappy to potty painlessly,

She will happily sit on the potty and watch tv but i'm not sure if she really knows what its for. Her understanding is not great, not sure if she understands what to do but will sit there and repeat what i say to her 'wee wee on potty' .

When i change her i put her nappy in the potty to show her where wee goes but it just doesnt seem to click.

If i could make her realize what the potty is for i'm sure she would pick it up straight away.

I have put her in pants for the day but she will just hold on all day until i put her bed time nappy on, she will sit on the potty for an hour and do nothing. I don't want her getting a poorly tummy by holding on to it all day but i need her to wee on the potty so she understands what its for.

Its so frustrating, she will poo on the potty if i catch her in time but is yet to wee on it.

Do you have any friends with little girls who are being potty trained? Could you get one to come over and use dd's potty?
Try and take advantage of dd being able to grasp the need for a nappy to wee. Put her in joggers wait until she fetches a nappy, instead of putting it on open it and lay it in the potty and sit dd on the potty.

Got to admire her for that . Maybe get her to sit on the potty/toilet after each nappy change? Thats how I started off with DS2

asdx2- i will try that (putting nappy on potty), i don't think i know any other little girls that are being potty trained , i could always get dd1 to show her (if she will still fit on the potty). Nursery (ms nursery) are being great and are letting her watch the others use the potties and toilets.

I will keep trying and not give up , i'm sure she is ready just being awkward.

Dd was potty trained at school just by watching the others and being put on the toilet when it was part of the routine. She had never had any inclination before nor shown the awareness your dd does. It took two weeks watching for the first week and being put on the toilet the second week. I think we had two pairs of wet pants in all that time.

That is terrible that they forgot. DD was going round with her nappy hanging down and a big wet bum today at nursery [grr]

That's great she was trying to put a nappy on herself though! She sounds very enterprising!
