Our 6 year old still has a wet bed every night and until a week ago was still in pull ups during the night but now its the 6 week hols we decided to try and get her out of them.

Our 4.5 year old has been dry during the night since she was 2.5 when we started potty training but done it herself.

She has a wee at bedtime around 8-9pm and if not i've been waking her at 10-11pm before we go to bed and it doesnt seem to be making any diffrenece. We try to stop drinks after tea time but at the moment with it being the holidays theyve been playing out till 7pm then having tea, bath and bed for 8.30-9pm.

The other night she had a wee at 8.45pm and i went in and checked 45mins later and she was soaking wet :dohh:

Just looking for advice really.. should i be waking her? Giving no drinks etc?

Our 12 week old doesnt sleep great and goes to bed for the night around 9.30-10pm so i go to sleep when he does and have been waking dd around that time too.
 
My friend used a sensor with her boy & it worked, he was dry after a month from using it
 
Don't stop drinks, it's too long to go on limited fluids.
 
Have you been to doctors just to rule out any medical reason for this? Weak or small bladder? Urine infections etc?

If so then I'd be looking at other possible causes for it, bed wetting can be an emotional thing as well? Does she have worries such as problems at school? Nightmares? Scared of the dark? Solving any problems like that may eliminate the bed wetting?

Other than that, I'd be lifting her out of bed to go pee when I head to my bed (We did this when potty training DD) and eventually when we lifted her she stopped needing, took 1-2 months though for it to stop but saved my sheets in the mean time!

Good luck :flower:
