How to progress from here?
My daughter is still very young. Only 22 months. At about 15 months I switched from disposables to cloth nappies. My main reason was that it's better for her and the environment and because I had witnessed friends use them and realised they were not nearly as much hassle as I had thought they were. But another reason was also that I wanted to get her used to the feeling of being wet. I know MCNs are pretty good at wicking the moisture away from the skin, but they don't keep them quite as dry as disposables do.
This move seems to have paid off as at about 19 months she started using the potty - on her own accord. I had just left it in her room and she figured out on her own what is was for.
Anyway, she is now at a stage when I only need to have her in a nappy at sleep times and when out and about. It's still pretty warm here in SE QLD, so she runs around with a bare bottom all day and we don't have any accidents. This has all been with no involvement of mine. So I've had it very easy.
Now I don't quite know how to progress from here. She doesn't seem to mind peeing in her nappy when she's wearing one. She just doesn't like wearing them in the first place. But it is going to get cooler and she will have to wear clothes again. I tried her in undies for the first time today. And she loved wearing them so much, she didn't want to take them off, not even for using the potty. So we had a couple of accidents in them. How do I teach her to pull them down if she needs to do a pee or poo?
I don't want to pressure her into TT before she's ready. but she seems pretty damn ready for me. I'm really really proud of her, but my main reason for wanting to take the next step is that it is easier now, when it's still warm, than in winter when she will have more than just undies to deal with.
