Alicia & Kirstie have been completely out of nappies now for about 4 or so months. Neither of them are hardly ever dry in the morning. I thought they were ready as their nappies weren't that wet in the morning. I have stopped them having drinks from 7 o'clock, now that its colder they have their radiator on, all of which I had hoped would help. I know I may be prematurely worried, but I don't remember the older 2 still being wet on a night after this long. Any other tips or advice would be extremely grateful. Sharon xx |

I think it's just one of things that happen at different times depending on the child hun. Alice was out of nappies completely when she was almost 3, David won't entertain the idea just yet.  How old are the girls now? I've no idea what to suggest that may help, I hope you get some suggestions though, I'll be wanting them too...lol.

Make sure that the very last thing they do is to go to the toilet before they go asleep. My sister wakes her son at age 8 and gets him to have a quick squirt. I would imagine that there is no underlying kidney trouble with the girls so that can be ruled out. It is something that some children do and some don't. I'd be ashamed to say what age I was when I finally stopped wetting the bed. My sister used to wake me too, and I remember just dropping me drawers and going on the floor..... I dreamt there was a potty there...lol Ask your health visitor or doctor for tips. There might even a herbal remedy they can take at night??? |

Its just something some children do and some dont although boys are more prone than girls and can go on well into their teens.. Please dont stop them from drinking tho as this doesn't have any effect on the bed wetting but does make the urine stronger as it isn't diluted and really makes them sore if they dont happen to wake up. I used to try to wake mine to go to the loo before i went to bed but he was such a deep sleeper that he just didnt wake and i had to hold him stood up in front of it while he did the neccessary. Perseverance and making light of it will out....you'll get there  |

Thank you for your replies. Nikki, I think your doc is onto something with the hormone thing. Someone I know (of adult age) has recently been prescribed tablets for bedwetting, because apparently she doesn't produce this hormone at all. She says that since she has been taking them she hasn't been wet once. Jue, I have stopped with the stopping of the drinks so early. I had noticed that Alicia was getting a rash and presumed it was to do with how long she had probably been wet before she had got up and been washed. I never occured to me that it was maybe down to her urine being very strong. I'll just have to percivere with them, and reward them when they are dry, which has happened twice this week for both of them . Thanks again. Sharon xx |

Hi sharon< I am so sure your little ones aren't like my son, he wet the bed till he was 9, yikes.....his doc said his system just wasnt ready to hold overnight. To this day at 16 when he drinks pop he is in the bathroom several times not long after, small bladder, i wouldnt worry as of yet, wait till they are near school age if it keeps up ask your doc here in canada there is something you can give them to stop them from doing it, didnt have it while my son was growing up, bloody hell;) loree;) |
