Alarm for when he wets the bed

[claralouise]

ok we went for Louis's appointment with child and adolecent yesterday, they are pushing to put him on ritalin im not sure wether to do a trial on it with him.

but also his soiling and wetting has been improving in the day, im taking him to the toilet every 15mins. but on a night its dreadful he could go though 4 nappie pants in 1 night, his phycologist mentioned a this thing she can get for him to go to bed with all i could gather is its a sheet conected to a box and if he starts to wee an alarm goes of waking him up to tell him to go to the toilet.
Has anyone heard of this??

Tomhad a little alarm like a keyring that clipped in to his nappy and whenever it got wet it set an alarm off.

I have no idea where to get it but maybe you could try this website or even ask people in the forum Bladderandbowelfoundation.org

hiya my boys wet the bed when they were younger & i went to see school nurse so we got bed wetting alarm for my oldest 1st he was about 9 at the time this worked brilliantly this alarm tricks the brain into working by when they need the toilet to wake up you might have a few trips to the toilet in the night when the alarm goes off but will be worth it in the end , my oldest was about 10 when he stopped & my 2nd oldest was about 11 when he stopped its all worth it in the end though . x
