Hi, my daughter is two years 2 months old, she recently decided going potty in the potty chair was the way to go and now pretty much never has an accident(it has been only 2 weeks) she brings me a diaper when she wishes to have a bowel movement and I put diapers on her at naps and bedtime. She takes them right back off though, we have tried everything to keep the doggone things on for bed, onesies sleepers and layering, we have also taped over the velcro straps but that just made her angry at us and after nap time she wouldnt talk to me for awhile. So how do I potty train her for bedtime? Obviously I need to. When is a good bedtime for her? we put her down at 8:30 - 9:00 but she sits and talks and sings for up to two hours on average sometimes as far as 4 hours. When do I stop with liquids for the night? Dehydration is not an issue we go through a gallon of milk in just about 2 days. How do I teach her it is okay to have a bowel on the toilet? she has two plastic potty chairs

if shes done wearing diapers then you can buy training pads like the ones you use for puppy's and put on her bed they have then in the drug stores and where they sell ladies menstrual stuff and that will help protect her sheets and bedding or try using pull ups they are more like panties
if shes not liking the potty chairs try getting a regular potty seat in her fave character and replacing the one on your potty that may help her to wanna use it More than going in the diaper, that's what we did we got a sponge bob one and ever since my lil boy wont touch a regular potty chair and your bedtime schedule is fine but shes not sleepy if shes singing for 4 hrs try putting her to bed an hr later and make sure that shes getting plenty of exercise so that shes more tired in the evenings maybe a shorter nap in the afternoon

drinks are an hour to 2hrs before bed. The bedtime you got set up is fine that is perfect it is up to you if you want to make it earlier but i really think that bedtime is perfect. She should be fine without diapers but maybe you could try pull ups which feel like underwear or put underwear over the diaper?. I would not put dieaper on her when she comes to you and wants to make a bowl movent if she gives you a diaper for that she is ready for the potty. So i would say no diaper you need to go on the potty now you are big girl mommy daddy.... do it so you need start also. ELMO has a movie out about going to the potty and he even has it on the website just go to semestreet website. I would just get movies about it. Tell her that you all do it also.
I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU!

I used pullups for my daughter at night. Make sure she goes on the potty right before sleeping. Try putting her on the potty around 11pm so she will realize the feeling while she sleeps. Do that for about a week. Make sure you have a water proof mattress pad on the bed for those accidents. Some kids take time having bowel movements on the potty. Someone told me that they put the diaper on the kid but had cut a hole by the butt and had them sit on the potty when they had to go.

Wow, it is fabulous for you that she is going on the potty already. She will have BM's on the toilet soon enough, so don't let this stress you. Cut off liquids around 7pm - and have her go potty right before she goes to bed. If she will go back to sleep, get her up to go before you go to bed (my kids would have woken up too much for this, but my sister was able to do this with her son).

As far as her talking in bed, as long as she doesn't share a room and doesn't come out - I would just let her be! I put my little one to bed at 7:30 - 8.

my daughter was very quick to potty train she started at 18months now at 2 she is dry all day and sometimes at night.the best way to get her to go poo is to sit on the toilet and tell that you are doing a poo(note you dont have to actually poo lol).just try doing it a couple of days a week andshe will soon want to be just like you and do the same.next time she brings you the nappy say "do you want to go on the big toilet like mummy".dont force,she will when shes ready.this is how i potty trained my daughter.she obviously knows when she needs to go as she brings you the nappy.you will know when she is ready at night because she will take her nappy off in the morning and it will bw dry.when she does this a few times,try putting her to bed with no nappy.if she has an accident which she will,she will soon realise in her sub-concious and learn how to control it.cut down on drinks before bedtime and encourage her to go to toilet before she sleeps,include it in her bedtime routine along with washing, putting pj's on, brushing teeth etc.also get a waterproof sheet for the bed and lots of spre sheets,good luck lol

u already acknowledge that ur daughter has done well by training herself to use the toilet, and i think she is being remarkable in brining u the diaper to put on her when she wants to have a bowel movement. most kids start by bowel control and ur daughter has that control- she just doesnt want to do it on the potty. give her time.

instead of diapers u can use training pants and tell her they are for big girls who are trying to stop bedwetting. i think its less stressful to use a plastic sheet and change the regular sheets as necessary.

serious problem u have is that u have not allowed ur daughter to develop good sleep habits. this needs to be ur next question on yahoo. she is getting to bed too late for her age and then u are allowing her to stay up for so long. please be her mum in this area

I would hold off on liquids at around five or 6 pm but she may just not be ready...Are there any other issues? This may go against every mothers idea but give her a treat for trying. She'll learn that pooping on the potty will be encouraged and therefore something she may want to do to please you.

about a hour before you put her into bed dont give her any liquids. that will help with bed wettin and if she says she is thirsty then just give her a little. you could also put rubber sheets on her bed to help with accidents or try nite time pull ups and just tell her their big girl pants

At Kids surplus.com they have options that look like panties but are really trainers with absorbent lining and are washable. good luck the bowel movement is the hardest part .no pun intended.
