Sayonara diapers!

You may surprise with the title of the post?! haha..

Xuan is already 4 years and 8 months old. Why diaper? haha..
Yes, Xuan is already toilet trained when she was about 25 months old. However, we have not been able to train Xuan to go to bed at night without it. Reason being Xuan drinks a lot of drink before bed time and Xuan is a deep sleeper. It is tough to wake her up for toilet. She would be very very grouchy and unhappy in the middle of the night.

However, when we ran out of diaper one day about 2 months ago, we decided to tell Xuan that supermarket has ran out of the size. Everywhere is out of stock and from that night onwards, we have to wake up for toilet. Mummy repeatedly assured Xuan that we will help her and wake her up but Xuan has to help herself and us by not being unhappy and crying for being woken up. With the assurance and encouragment, Xuan thought for a while and nodded. To facilitate that, we also moved the milk time (240ml) an hour earlier before bed time. And if Xuan asks for little more before bed, we just gave her another 60ml to give her the comfort. With that, we'll wake Xuan for toilet once just after midnight before mummy and papa go to bed.



And YES, Xuan did it! And so, sayonara to diapers forever!!!!
