Exhibitionist

I am a modest person. My baby is not. She loves to show her belly to anyone who will look and her other favorite thing is to be stark raving naked.

So for the last few mornings (she courteously timed this with the early rising of VBS) I have gone to get her out of bed to find her wearing nothing but her shirt. So of course that means pee in the bed. She must take the diaper off before she goes to sleep and she actually seems to make it until early in the morning without going.

I have to hose her down and throw the sheets in the washer... you get the idea...

Last night we used packing tape to strap her diaper on and she she still wriggled out of it. We tried a Pull-Up and she wiggled out of it.

So tonight we are trying this:
Obviously, it is not pajamas. But it is one-piece. We put a onesie underneath so that she can't even reach in from the bottom and undo the diaper to get it off- Well, that and to insure that she look as ridiculous as possible.

I will let you know how it goes!

That is absolutely hilarious! Have you thought about potty training?

My 2 year old is still in her crib, but potty trained. So when she wakes up in the middle of the night with "the urge" she just starts screaming, "Mommy! I gotta make pee pee!" When I eventually make it in there, she's standing in her crib holding herself screaming.

We are slowly working on potty training.. she has all the pieces, she just hasn't been able to work the puzzle :)

She is in a toddler bed so she could get up to potty- we could just leave it in her room at night.

She loves panties, loves the potty, loves the tissue- she loves it all.

She will go pee pee in her panties though and go running to the potty! She just hasn't quite made the connection of getting there BEFORE she has to go!

I know how you feel... It was driving me crazy when my little girl was in the process.. I knew she knew what to do. And would tell me she needed to go & would just sit. Then, she would get up & pee in her panties. It drove me crazy! The first few days I was serious about getting her to potty, I had to bribe her to get her to sit on it long enough to do anything. She had her toe nails painted more times in those first days than I have my entire life. I think she had 3 different colors in one day. I was having to physically carry her to the bathroom every 45 minutes to see if anything would happen. Then magically one day the little light bulb went off & she just did it by herself.
They eventually get it.. just keep working on it!
