Malka all of a sudden is noticing being in a poopy diaper. And she learned the "potty" sign within two days to indicate when she wants to be changed. She poops and then immediately starts pulling at her diaper anxiously and doing the sign. I'm kind of blown away by that after her total lack of noticing up till now.

I. Cannot. Get. Fini. Out. Of. Diapers.

Sigh.

She just refuses. And every time we push the issue, we get a re-enactment of the Mr. Hanky episode from South Park.

I've been doing more research into the opinion piece posted earlier and it doesn't seem to have much merit.

Here is a link with better research. http://www.parentingscience.com/science ... ining.html

At the end of the day, it just seems that it works well to let them lead.

At the moment we have so much nakey time, and I will offer the potty and she says no and runs off and pees next to it. I have gotten peed on at least 3x today. If she poops in her diap, she brings us a diap to be changed which is pretty darn cute.

ahhh bumping this ancient thread to complain:
D's been potty-trained for almost 2 years, with hardly any accidents while awake and really only one accident per month overnight, I'd say. Well, in the last 2 weeks she has been wetting the bed almost every night - sometimes TWICE. There's honestly nothing new going on that we are aware of, we've cut back her intake of liquids etc. but nothing is helping. I truly believe that it is accidental, that she's not doing it on purpose but what the hell! Is she entering some new phase of sleep that is extra-deep?
I'm about to insist that she wear a diaper cover to bed tonight because H is having to wash all of her blankets/sheets every friggin' day. I don't want to make her feel bad about it, but it's just getting so ridiculous and the fact that I can't figure out what's causing it is making us crazy.

ha wow I just looked back at this thread and I was complaining about this very same thing almost exactly a year ago! I wonder if this has something crazy to do with spring/the beginning of warmer weather because that's really quite a coincidence. A few people have suggested that perhaps she is cold, which I find difficult to believe, but she is wearing lighter pajamas now than she was during the winter hmm.
