Potty training at night

[carolynW]

Ok i need to tackle this next for my younger son, in SA, I was able to buy for my older son a large piece of flannel, very absorbent cloth (I should have bought 2 but I thought my older son could pass it down, he unfortunately still has accidents fm time to time), I brought it to spotlight, they said they don't have that, I am guessing maybe mothercare or other places (where?) would have this?

or what do people do? the flannel one I have is so absorbent and soft I do not need to put an extra plastic sheet. Any ideas or what do other mom's do?

Use pull-ups at night.

In the US they sell that material in the fabric shops (heavy cotton on the top with a plastic-y undercoating) cut to order. I found the exact same material sold in a cot size/single mattress size sheet in Mothers Work (Tanglin Mall or Great World)... but now they sell the same thing but a thinner fabric in IKEA. I bought a number of them for the kids mattresses (especially when they have stomach flu) - and you can take them when you travel to relatives if you are worried about accidents.

Pull ups are still diapers...

Good news tho, he has been off diapers for 2 nights and both nights have made it to the morning... but waking up at 545am and not going back to bed.

Thanks for the tip on mother works will go look.
