Overnight Potty Training question

ok - if you child is trained to go #1 on the potty and there are no accidents (#2 is another story), did you put them in underwear at night, or did you continue to put diapers on them?

I should add - out of the last 3 weeks, there was only one night with a wet diaper (and that is because she had 2 juice boxes before bed)

And if you did continue with diapers, how long?

Thanks

I still put Kaitee in a pull up or diaper at night. She has been day trained for about 6 months. She is a heavy sleeper, no way would she wake up to pee. If she ever woke up dry I would give it a shot though! She naps with no diaper but she has short nap.

Ella is still in a pullup at night because she likes to drink milk before bedtime. I have to break the milk habit before I can lose the pullups.

She's been fully day trained for about 6 months and she's dry during naps (no pull-ups).

Anyone else

Re: Overnight Potty Training question

Both my kids trained at night right away when they trained..... but I was too much of a nervous nelly to take that first pull-up free night, even though they never woke up with a wet one since they trained!! I have to say it was such a waste of pull-ups since they were never wet

My son went pull-up free at nights at about 3.5 (he trained by age 3) and for my DD, I will probably do the same (she is just 3 today and has been trained for 2 months - day and night).

Re: Overnight Potty Training question

Our pediatrician said that you really can't "train" a child at night like you can do during the daytime, and that nighttime pottytraining is really just a question of when they are physically ready. Putting them in diapers at night, when they aren't ready, can really regress the whole endeavor.

I didn't make the transition until Alex woke up with dry diapers, consistently, for at least a week if not more. At that point, I knew she was physically ready, and it came about 3-4 months after she was fully potty trained during the day.
