Taking off nappy

[skelly]

I have a 2 and a half year old who has decided that throwing all his cot linen on the floor and taking his pants and nappy off, are fabulous things to do before you go to sleep during the day. I don't care if he sleeps butt naked, however the washing and drying of mattresses and teddies, etc, etc is starting to get a little frustrating. I have tried different pants, TT pants over the top, packing tape around the top of the nappy, nothing seems to be working. He only does this during the day, not at night.

Anyone got ideas/suggestions as to how to keep a nappy on?

Are to trying to toilet train him ATM? I went through a stage with my now 3yo DD and she wouldn't have a bar of going to sleep in a nappy during the day once she had started TT. It got to the stage where I would have to wait until she was asleep to put the nappy on her. She never went so far as to strip the bed though.

Is there somewhere else you could put him for a sleep? another bed perhaps?

My DD did this too awhile ago. i tried everything and nothing worked. She stopped doing it after about 3-4mths.

Maybe try putting a sleeping bag on him, he wont get that off.

Chelsea used to take hers off all the time from about 2 years of age. The only thing I could do to keep it on was to use sticky tape and tape it on!!! Sounds crazy but it did work, she couldn't get it off. Only problem was, I had to get scissors to cut it off lol!! Things we do.

Try putting the nappy on backwards. Maybe buy a plastic lining for the matress too?
Good Luck

Oh and use masking tape not sticky tape, its sticks really well to disposables
