Don’t feel so bad about your little boy having accidents, especially at night. My daughter, when she was about a year old, I realize that she was waking up at night so often because she had to go pee. I would nurse her and change her and try to get her to potty and then put her back to sleep and she’d wake back up because she had a full bladder. When I stopped nursing her at night and just trying to wake her up to use the potty, it was not going well. When I realized that she would pee herself about 2 to 3 hours after going down to bed, when she was about 15 months old, I started trying to nighttime potty train her. She what also go two or three days a week where she would stay dry all night. Her body would wake her up, needing to go potty, but she was so tired and need to sleep that she would refuse to use the potty. There was one night specifically that I struggled for like two hours to try to get her to use the potty at night, I would hear her whining on the monitor so I run in there and try to get her on the potty but she would flip out like she didn’t have to go and then put yourself back to sleep for 10 minutes. Until finally, I hear her saying “no no no” because the pressure on her bladder was not stronger than her will to stay dry during the night. And ever since then she has struggled at night, only waking up dry once or twice every two weeks. And daytime has been difficult also, with some days being completely dry with potty cartons, and other days refusing to use the potty when I ask her and then having an accident five minutes later, waiting to a total of 2 to 6 accidents over the next two hours until her bladders finally empty. And at 2 1/2 she keeps trying to tell me that she wants a diaper, I’m pretty sure part of the reason is because it’s easier to hide her pee so that I don’t notice it immediately. But she actually does try to poop in the toilet, she only has a poo accident about once a week.
I have a video my first daughter was about two months old. She was nursing on me while I was on the computer and she pulled back to try to get my attention. I didn’t realize what she was doing and thought she just wanted me to pay attention to her nursing so that it wouldn’t be like boring or something. you know kids nursing they want your attention they want your love and affection and I thought that’s what she was doing just like hey stop paying attention to the computer and pay attention to me. Well, that is what she was doing, but not quite in the way that I thought. Because even after I started paying attention to her and starting to record a video on my phone, she was still giving me weird looks and like slapping my chest and stuff. I didn’t realize for almost 2 minutes that she was trying to tell me she had to go poop. And I also didn’t pick up those signals until watching the video a few months later. I was so dense to the idea that my two month old can communicate with me that I wasn’t seeing her do it right in front of me. When she was about five or six months old, we would have her in the bed with us a lot, and some kind of sleeper thing to make her bigger so that we went and roll over and she would wake up every morning, slapping me in the face when she had to go poop. It didn’t take long for me to figure that one out, but it was so early in the morning that I sometimes ignore it until she soiled herself. Which of course did not help the situation here we are 2 1/2 months old. She has an average one poop accident a week and a lot of peeing on purpose. I don’t know if she is ignoring her body sensations because I was ignoring her body sensations, or if she’s just too distracted to give her body needs.to potty train.
A lot of it in the video with spatial expression. But there was hitting me, kind of smiling before babies really able to social smile, indicating gas or pressure, and, I kid you not, she said “poo poo” I was putting her on the potty every 45 to 90 minutes at the time during the day and every time I would do it I would poo poo poo poo poo. Poo. Poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo. Poo. She learned how to say because it’s a very simple sound and I have it on video
So good! Thank you ❤
Thanks for watching!
