I've considered putting fabric in his diapers too but then the OT (and the book we read) said to wear underwear under the diaper. How did you find a school that will take your daughter not potty trained? I'm already thinking of other options for my son for next year. It was hard enough finding a preschool that took children not potty trained. He is the only one in his class that is not trained and it does not bother him at all. Hopefully none of the kids will notice. Maybe being in kindergarten will make something click in her mind and she'll want to get out of pull-ups! If we could figure this out we could write our own books and be rich. I hope her first day goes well, and that it goes well for you too. It's such an emotional day as it is without all these other problems.

It's public school, so I guess they don't have a choice. I told them up front at the end of the preschool year that she probably wouldn't be trained, and their only comment was that the other kids probably wouldn't notice. The OT told us last week that she doesn't think it's the SPD keeping her from potty training, but that she's exercising her will. It reminded my husband and me of our foster-parent training, where they told us there are three things you can't make a kid do if they don't want to: sleep, eat and go potty. How true!

I did notice the last time I bought pull ups about a month or so ago that they now have pull ups that feel cool immediately after getting wet:

I wonder if that will help?

Good luck!

Thanks. We have tried them. They didn't seem to do much.
