My son is 22 months. His nap times vary as he still naps 2x 3hrs most days and sleeps 10 hours at night. He asks me to nap. I dont make him nap. Sometimes when he goes down for a nap (times vary) he goes straight to sleep. Other times he bangs on the wall saying "mum, mum". When i go in he has done a pooh, taken off his nappy and rubbed pooh into the carpet and all over himself and the walls. How do i stop him from doing this? He always has on a clean nappy when i put him down for a nap. This started when we moved house.

Seriously, I would use duct tape. It won't hurt him and it will save you a lot of stress until he outgrows this fun new hobby.

I think you child is ready to be potty trained!!!!! My children used to take there nappy off as soon as they did the pooh at that age, they didnt put on walls but they did touch it, i guess play with it. And it seemed to me when they woke up or when they had to go to bed Is when they did it. Maybe that is the time for them to go the toilet.. maybe you should introduce the potty. Maybe put them on it before hes sleep time see what he does. Also they could be bored but more so need to be put on the potty. Yes it drove me crazy but he will grow out of it. Just a phaze, hes trying to tell you something.. Good luck

I saw on TV that another couple had trouble with this and they took some one piece PJs, and had the back cut and had a long zipper sewed in. That way their child could not get out of the PJs and take the nappy off. Only someone else can unzip the PJs. That was the only way they could get this problem solved. I hope that helps.

OMG, my daughter did the "POOH" thing it was so gross. We put her diaper s on backwards(it helped) but also got the zip up footy PJ's and cut the feet off and put it on backwards, That always worked for us... Either way, she always helped clean it up and it was just a phase.Don't worry hell probably get over it.. But he does seem to sleep alot, I would make him get.. maybe talk to a pediatrician, he could just be going through a growth spurt! Good luck.

That would be when we started to toilet train! Granted our son was two months older than that- Perhaps if you put on pull up pants it would be more difficult to take off. Another suggestion would be to put him in a one piece outfit prior to nap time-Either overalls or one piece pajamas. It will be much more difficult to take off and he might just give up on the fingerpainting with poo!

in many situations the undertaking starts with too plenty drink too late. Take him to go pee each and every 0.5 hour after supper and no greater advantageous beverages earlier mattress. His nappy could be too warm and makes his yet itchy, so he takes it off. Or he takes it off simply by fact it somewhat is already moist. make specific his bladder is empty whilst he is going to mattress.

potty training time, only because he has demonstrated that he knows when he poops. when its nap time tape the nappy on him and then put a one peice pajama or overalls on him.

My daughter did that, she was a little younger though. I tired overalls and onesies she still did it. I then started putting her in pajamas that zipped to the top, one piece , that hada flap over the zipper and that seemed to do the trick. Good luck with your little one.

quite a few kids did that. my last one did, and it drove me wild.
It would seem that they arent sleeping and are *bored*.
there is really nothing u can do, but wait it out. I know...
its a horrid process, but what to do?!
