Reportedly I was so insistent that I wasn't ready that I put on my own diapers at night (I don't think pull-ups existed when I was under 5) which seems more complex than taking off a pull-up. I do pee in the toilet now, so at some point I learned. Not sure what age I was when I was doing the my-own-diaper thing.
I guess if she's not a morning kid that might not be feasible.

Ha, yes, and that is sort of the point of these things (pullups)...but she's long past the novelty and in the a.m. it's a matter of getting her out of bed and dressed. On weekends she does do that and gets herself dressed, but the week days just start too early for her. I think she probably is just not ready to let go of that mommy-focus time, which is fair enough - to a point! Ah, well, short of a magic bullet or my taking a couple of weeks to deal with the crankiness of getting her up at night and in the early a.m. and take her to the bathroom, I suppose I'll just have to keep living with it. They really are gross, though.
