My 17 mos old daughter takes her diaper off the minute we lay her down for a nap for bedtime. I go in and out for about an hour putting her diaper back on. It is never wet (occasionally I have put on a fresh one) never too tight etc. How can i get her to keep her diaper on when she is in her crib? I put her in a onsie under her jammies and that used to work but now she just gets under the onsie to get the diaper off. Any suggestions I would appreciate!
Thanks!!

What can I do next?

Buy zip up jammies either w/o feet in them or cut off the feet and put them on backwards. My nephews would take off their diaper make a HUGE MESS (if you know what I mean) and this stopped the behavior IMMEDIATELY.

Duct tape works great. Just put it across the top of the diaper and she won't be able to get it off. This worked wonders with my son who did the same thing.

Find a one piece romper that does NOT snap at the bottom...or sew a once or romper closed at the bottom.....use only for nap time.

If you put zippered jammies on her backwards, it would be quite a challenge for her to figure out how to get under there to get the diaper off! Good luck!

Cloth Diapers have snaps - it is what I use on my son and he has a heck of a time trying to get them off.

Yep, I small strip of duct tape all around the top part works great. Bought mine by the bundle at Sams.

Try putting a pair of panties on over them. I've been putting some toddler underwear on my 2 year old boy over his diaper for nap or running around the house. He doesn't seem motivated enough to try to take them off to pull off the diaper.

Try potty training her. One of my daughter's did this at that age and she just did not want to wear diapers anymore. She took them off all of the time, every kind of diaper, yes even cloth diapers with pins. If it is just nap time, overalls may work until she learns to take THEM off too.
