Naked toddlers

You're not the only one. My DS is doing this too. I don't let him out of the house without clothes, and often I am a mean mama and make him keep a diaper on, even around the house, since he has zero interest in potty training ATM. If people who come to the door think anything of it, they haven't said so yet. If they seemed freaked out, I'd prolly pretend I was just changing him, or getting him ready for a bath or something.

I think they just like the sensation of bare skin. I dunno if it's a phase or not, though I am sure there will come a time when he prefers to wear clothes for purely social reasons. DS has wanted to be naked since he was pretty tiny. He seems impervious to cold, too.

Good idea about the "we were just about to take a bath" or something. Now that I think about it, Abby has always liked to be naked. She will take off her panties and run to the potty saying "peepee", sit there and say "all done", just to get out of her panties. It is funny.

I am fine with it, just didn't know if I should be more "strict" (not the best word, but can't think of anything else) about wearing clothes in the house now that she is almost 2 or what.

Glad I am not the only one!

My daughter loves to be naked too!

We have 'naked time' which is starting to extend to any time we're at home! We just got a kiddie potty so she'll say she has to go & get *totally* naked & then just run around the house.

I don't care & I think it's cute, she just knows she can't go on the couch or bed while 'nay-nay' - I've done a few too many loads of laundry!

The other day my dd said "clothes, done" and started pulling at her shirt. Its hot here and she is comfortable. When she is cold she gets a blanky or some clothes so I think she is learning about her needs and it is so cute. Right now she is into wearing thongs (flip flops)...only.

I think it is normal. My kid did it. I did insist on undies to keep thing "cleaner". (In nudist camps you ussually have a towel to sit on for hygene. So I figured undies would would serve the same purpose. It prevents dirt from little girl's skin folds).

We also live with a nudest. Today she had her little Gymboree bikini on at a friends house & within 10 minutes she had stripped it off... I'm not sure how I'm going to keep it on her this summer at the public pool :LOL

Nope, your not alone. Sean wont even keep his cute cloth diapers on. If only he wouldnt pee on the floor all the time....

We call Connor our little exhibitionist! :LOL Not only does he looove to be nakey but he gets slap happy when he is too. It's really cute! His fav activity is to streak once he gets his clothes off.

I'm also the mom to a 3 1/2 yr old naked baby. She seems to know that she only does that at home. When dh started to remark about her not having any pants on he realized that I didn't either. At home I usually just wear a shirt.
