Mako - We were very lucky with Luke, he really did the TT overnight thing all by himself. We didn't even try. I used to put pullups on him at night (they were called his 'special undies' and we just left it at that.. didn't really harp on the whole TT thing or wearing a nappy). Then after a few weeks of them being dry every night, I couldn't justify buying any more (they're expensive), so I just stopped and told him he had his big boy undies on now and made sure he did a wee before bed. I also noticed that he would wake in the morning and come into bed with us dry.. then I'd feel the pull up go warm.. so we just talked about how he needed to get to the toilet when he woke up. The whole waking at night thing wasn't going to work for us either.. Luke's a heavy sleeper and he would of lost the plot. So anyway, I also got a waterproof matress protector (just from Big W I think) and hoped for the best. We only ever had 2 accidents at night and that's it. We don't even worry about making him go to the toilet before bed now, he'll get up and go before he falls asleep if he needs to.. then sometimes he'll go ages in the morning before going.. so can hold it well - LOL. It was very easy.. which I'm amazed about.. not much happens that easily for us!! Oh and he even has water next to the bed too, it's crazy!
Michelle - You are NUTS but good on you hun!!
BW - Massive hugs... sounds like things are pretty tough right now. Hang in there.
Jayne - Woo Hoo on your Australia Day lunch, sounds great!
We've got my SIL here for a few days with my nephew who was born 2 weeks before Luke, so it's been nuts today. The two boys have been going crazy... I don't know how I'd ever cope with twins - LOL. I think we're off to the zoo tomorrow so that will be nice. Have a bit of a headache tonight, so praying for another good one from Campbell.. he's been a bit out of sorts today, so who knows. He woke at 3am last night, so still pretty good. Better get to bed to make the most of it!! I need all the sleep I can get atm.
