Ally has been diaper free since last week Thursday! She decided that when her last package of pull ups was gone, she didn't want to wear them anymore. Who are we to argue? We are currently riding a 3 day dry streak and are looking forward to many more dry days.
She has been only wearing pull ups at night for several months and has been waking up dry a large majority of the time. We have changed our bedtime routine to include books, potty and bed so as long as she goes just before climbing into bed, she has been doing great. She is not yet to the point where she is recognizing when she does need to go while sleeping because the times she has wet the bed it hasn't even woken her up. We thought for sure that she would wake up if she wet the bed so twice we have been caught by surprise in the mornings. She is very proud of this accomplishment and loves hopping out of bed dry. She also takes pride in her underwear selection and keeping them dry. We agreed that if we can deal with the little extra laundry and baths, we should let her go diaper free and see what happens. A very exciting milestone for her!
Recap Ally's potty training timeline:
May 2011- Ally decides to use the potty at school and we buy for home
July 2011- Transition into pull ups for every day use
November 2011- Ally only wearing pull ups at nap and travel times
May 2012- Underwear 24/7
