[quote=Anonymous]If he wants the water, he wears a pull up. After enough dry pull ups in the morning, he can wear undies again. I'd be firm on that one. Put less water in the bottle, like only 2-3 ozs. My DD (almost 3) is also big on drinking water, but I had to help her make the connection between drinking a lot of it before bed and having to pee at night. But yes, I think you need to be prepared for some middle of the night tantrums to get over this stuff. Maybe come up with a line you can use "Jimmy, it's time to sleep" and put him back in bed. Don't say anything else to him at night. That way, he knows you are there to respond to him, but also that you won't be discussing monsters with him at 3am. Where is your DH? Does he help? Sending him in might get a different response. He should also be helping with the evening chores so you can get to bed and sleep some while you all figure this out.[/quote]
