I Made a Huge Potty-Training Mistake With My Son. It's Going to Ruin Us Both.

One time, he went to the bathroom himself but peed all over the floor as he couldn't pull his undies down. Dear TNP, It's killing my sleep and it's killing his sleep, obviously."
"This kid is consuming way too much fluid in the evenings. Your 2-year-old should not be needing to get up three times a night to pee, let alone six times! Figure out how much he's currently drinking after 5 p.m., and scale it way the heck back. Obviously, make sure he's generally hydrated and get"
A two-year-old transitioned from a crib to a toddler bed and began diaper-free potty training ten days ago, with no daytime accidents for three days. The child wakes multiple times each night to be taken to the toilet because he cannot pull down his underwear, and one independent attempt caused a floor accident. Attempts to sleep naked produced bedwetting; pull-ups did not stop the night wakings since the child avoids peeing in underwear. The household is sleep-deprived and expecting another baby. Advice recommends cutting evening fluids, tracking drinks after 5 p.m., and preserving overall hydration during the day.
