It is okay for the 3 year old boy to sleep in a poopy diaper as long as it is not bothering them.

i have a 3 year old son myself who is not potty trained yet and he sometimes poops after he goes to sleep and I let him sleep in his poopy diaper as it's hard to get him to go to sleep.

He's been just fine sleeping in the poopy diaper and so i wait to change his diaper in the morning when he wakes up.

A 3 year olds skin is not as sensitive as a babies skin so it's not as bad for a 3 year old to sleep in a poopy diaper.

My own boys have slept in poopy diapers when they were 2 and 3 and even 4 years old and they have never been bothered by it.

Even my 8 year old son who wets the bed and wears a diaper at night has pooped his diaper before bed and slept in it.

It does not bother him nor has it bothered him when he was 3 years old and younger.

If the poop in the diaper bothers the kid then you should change the diaper but if not then it's safe for the 3 year old to wear the poop diaper at night.

Also my kids when they were 3 also have worn a poopy diaper for awhile when we were out in public or on a road trip and could not get the diaper changed right away.

Although you should change a poopy diaper on a toddler or baby right away it's okay to leave it if need be for awhile.

Sometimes my kids would poop their diapers when out and about outside and I would not know it for a few hours until it was time to change their diaper and they were just fine.
