As for ni...Congrats! WTG Max, and WTG mom and dad!<br /><br />As for night dryness, even for "neurotypical" kids (not a great term, but it will have to suffice...) 7 is considered within "normal" range for staying dry at night. We're still mostly in pullups at 5.5. We have friends who get their kids up to pee around midnight. <br /><br />Our setup is this -- if J has 2 nights dry in the pullup, he can choose underwear the next night (and he doesn't always...) Then I also make the bed like so: waterproof mattress pad, sheet, waterproof mattress pad, sheet -- so when he wets at night, I don't have to fuss with making the bed -- just peel off the top 2 layers, dip the wet boy in the tub, re-jammy and everyone goes back to sleep :-)<br /><br />For Max, who has muscle issues related to CP, it may take longer... or forever, but that's what pullups/underjams are for!<br /><br />Michellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-8604348001331793062012-11-28T11:46:28.944-05:002012-11-28T11:46:28.944-05:00YAY!

You could buy Max a bunch of small decals to put on some sort of pedal car or recumbent trike that would fit him, or you could buy him a giant Lightning McQueen decal for his wall in his room (they're peel and stick so you won't ruin the paint or paper). I am so happy for you guys, I know that potty training was the "Big Step" that Max had yet to take at home, so this really is the dawn of a new era! Who knew that doggone hurricane could do a good thing?
