hi, wondering if anyone has any suggestions. My 5yr old is refusing to wear anything!!! we've had these sensory issues before and the only way I've been able to overcome them previously is by finding something she's unable to remove and after a few days, she got used to having to wear clothes or shoes again.
Its never been obvious what her exact triggers are when it comes to clothing. Her reaction would seem to be the same whatever type of clothing she was given. sometimes it's fine and she'd wear it happily and others it was a point-blank refusal. During summer she refused any type of clothing other than loose-fitting dresses that came around the knee in length which i accommodated. However, one day she decided she didn't want to wear such a dress or anything else, and I've been in the same torment for more than 8 weeks now .
The current situation is she refuses any clothing and runs to hide whenever [resented with any. All the hard to remove items of clothing that id used previously when she was having these episodes no longer work as she is now big enough and strong enough to remove whatever I put on her. She then started having issues with the nappies. She uses pampers pull-up nappy pants and some have spots on and some have stripes. She will only wear the stripes and not the spots however in the last few days she's refusing even the striped nappies and refusing knickers and not entertaining going to the toilet. As you can imagine this is creating a whole other issue!
looking for any helpful tips or advice that may help me get her back in clothing! as you can imagine her refusal to wear clothes is making life very difficult and that's made even more difficult by the now refusal of nappies. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
