Loriann,

Seth wears his unitard to bed under is pj's. He likes it on and it keeps him

out of his diaper through the night. A little warmer too since he won't use

a blanket.

I forgot to mention something along this line..... has only one kind of

pajama he'll wear.....stretch pants, preferably stirrup! He looks so funny,

because he insists they be tight. I read one time that some autistic kids can't

tell where their body ends and the environment starts, so I just asked him if it

helped him feel where he was. He said yes, so I just buy him girls stirrup

pants (or stretch) and go on.

I know, some of you new people are thinking this is the most I've

talked.......and the more seasoned listers (notice I didn't say older) know I've

just been in a lull......

That's neat, I didn't know that some autistic kids

can't tell where their body ends. At leaast your kid

likes the stretch pj's- and too bad you only have 1

pair of pj's for him.
