Would it be out of order to ask the babysitter to take my son to the potty in the night?

  • Posted on January 17, 2011 at 1:23 pm

My son has just turned 4 and we are currently trying to night potty train him. He stays dry but if he wakes up he often pees himself. We don’t want to put him back in pull-ups.

He doesn’t drink for two hours before, and we take him to the potty before he goes to bed (6.45pm), 10pm and when my baby daughter wakes me up at 3am.

My husband and I are going out at like 7.30pm.
Would it be out of order to ask the 17 y/o sitter to carry our 4 y/o to the potty, stand him up by it and get him to pee while he’s still half asleep? If he wakes up before the bathroom he usually pees himself. Or should we just risk him wetting the bed? We will be getting back at about 1am.

Should I ask the babysitter to take my son to the potty in the middle of the night?

My husband and I are going out for the 1st time since my baby was born. We are leaving at like 7.30pm.
