Toddler moms: K won't keep her clothes on.

MissLMS · January 2011

I'm not sure what to do... besides duct tape and safety pins. Any tips?

Basically, this week, K learned how to work zippers which means she takes off her pajamas when she wakes up in the morning and then takes off her diaper. LOVELY.

On top of that, if we don't put a onesie on her on top of her diaper during the day, she'll take off her pants and her diaper then too.

Is this a sign of potty training readiness? If I ask her if she wants to go pee pee on the potty, she'll say "uh-huh" and run to the bathroom toilet, but doesn't actually want to sit on the potty for more than 5 seconds. I'm not trying to push the issue with her.

LOL! I think that's just part of toddler-hood! As with most things, it's probably just a phase that will pass. It's just something new & exciting for her that she realized she can do so she's gonna. Caleb went through that too and still sometimes takes his diaper off which I hate b/c sometimes it has poop in it! Ugh!

Can she open snaps too? If not, then maybe change her jammies to the snap-up kind rather than the zip-up kind. You could also put a onesie on her under her jammies too at night.

Lol. Amarah is 5 and she still strips down if I'm not watching her.

hehe she is just paying you back

I would just duck tape the diaper on and as long as she isn't freezing or running naked through church I wouldn't worry about her taking the PJ's off. She may be doing it for attention.

My SIL used to put my niece's diaper on backwards so she couldn't get it off.

I've sent you an article on Potty Training FYI check your PM for the article from me. I do agree with others - this is probably an attention getter and will pass. GL
