Thoughts on reverting back to Pull Ups at night?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

DD2 is 3 & 1/2 and finally completely potty trained (even through the night) for about the last 2 months. She was doing very well going potty before bedtime and staying dry through the night. We had been through a long process potty training which started at 18 months, seeemed to be completed at age 2, but then we completely went back to square one at around 2 & 1/2.  It took an entire year to get back to were we were at age 2.  At the begining of the summer she asked me if she could sleep in panties because now she was a big girl. Of course, I said yes.  We had a couple of months of dry nights, with an accident here or there, but we just washed up in the morning and changed the sheets with not much to do.  Suddenly, she started wetting the bed consistently - the last 3 nights in a row.  My question is: "What is your opinion on reverting back to Pull Ups at night?  I don't really think she wants to go back, but I don't really want to change bed sheets every morning.  DD1 is starting school this week. I work full time and also serve as transportation to and from school and various extracurricular activities for both DDs.  It's not that I'm lazy, it's just that there's only so much of me (not much help in this area from DH).  Do you think reverting will do more harm than good or should I save my sanity?

I would fly it by your dd first. Tell her you think it would be a good idea if she'd wear pull-ups until school is well underway. You know, take the pressure off of her.

Personally I wouldn't call 3 nights a new habit - I'd give it at least a few more days. Ds has had 3 nights in a row & then 3 months without wetting - it may just be a coincidence. You know your own child & how it would go - I know if I were to try to switch ds I would have a major battle on my hands & it wouldn't be worth it unless it was truly becoming a consistent pattern.
