They easily have 4/5 nights dry.

Before winter they were going weeks without wetting the bed.
Now it was about once a week, maybe twice.
But since I started waking them there has been 0 accidents.
Tbf the night they wet before 10, they were early to bed (6) had had a massive 5 nights so we’re extra tired and told me they went to the toilet but I don’t think they did. As they did a big wee before dinner so I don’t think there was anything to wee at that point.

Thanks no I just started that (the last 2 weeks) they were doing really well till winter hit then they both wet for about 5 nights straight , and we had to go in nappies again because they were getting too tired, ending up in our bed again when they hadn’t wet, and we didn’t have much water for the constant washing of sheets. And just plain run out of sheets they were drying in time cos it was too cold.

I haven’t tried limiting liquid consciously but they really don’t drink after dinner anyways.

Oh and I’m usually asleep by 8/8:30 so that’s the issue there haH

Maybe try an extra blanket on the bed, or a singlet under pjs? I find being cold makes you want to wee!

I don’t know if they are necessarily cold IN the bed. They are all rugged up typically, I was thinking it could have been the “snugness or being so warm (like the hand in warm water thing?

Iv considered taking her I just thought I’d wait til she was 8 after we’ve really tried to do no nappies.

Please don’t medicate unless really necessary. Ur messing with their hormones. It’s common for them to be older. My go said he wouldn’t worry about bed wetting till 10-12. I knew a guy that did it once a week till he was 16. He says he just never felt it

Yes I agree, I would avoid medication as most I can hence why I haven’t and won’t take her to the doctor anytime soon as I wouldn’t use any medication provided.
I do beleive they will get there, I mean they are close
I guess I was more wondering if it could be me holding them back (by going back in nappies when there was a big run of it)
Or taking them to the toilet at 9:30/10.

Mine were/are the same. Day undies before 2 but night time 2 of mine were just before 7 and one 4. Very deep sleepers . I’m going through it now. For over a month I was waking up and taking them to the toilet now I let them go. There is an accident weekly so not too bad now. I have a waterproof mattress protector on the bed then a sheet on top followed by a Brolly sheet over that. It goes across the bed and is a lifesaver if they wet the bed I just change them take the brolly off and the sheets are dry. Also a lot easier to just wash the brolly and dry it rather than strip the whole bed

Def keep going tho if they have already started esp with the older one. They will be at an age soon where they will be going on school camps etc

Thanks iv heard of brolly sheets. Might finally make the jump and invest in them
Thankyou

You should it might look expensive but it works out if you calculate washing all the bed linen and buying those disposable pads all the time. Really is a lifesaver in the middle of the nite just take it off and their bed is ready to go. I think I paid 50-60 for a quilted one from Adair’s years ago they don’t sell them anymore. Big W have a terry towelling one for $29. Google brolly sheets they’re great quality and worth it. lot quicker to dry as well. In winter now I stick it over the heater , gas, and it’s dry super fast

Oh that sounds much cheaper option!!! Thankyou.
I’m avoiding the doctor till it’s a serious issue as if the were to give her medication I wouldn’t be giving it now anyways. So I was going to try and sort it out before going down that route
My 4 year old is definatly the more ready. Truth she probably could have come out at 2 but my then 5 year old wasn’t at all ready and it just would have been drama but I think I missed the “window” a bit. But she’s definatly the more reliable one still.

Iv also heard kids can wet more in winter?
And they were fine right until the first week of cold, so wondering if that’s effecting them?

I thought this too and I reckon there is a theory. My daughter wore her undies to bed for a week and wet her bed every night. I decided to put her in her warm pjs and she has an accident maybe 1-2 week now. She doesnt want to wear the pjs but I didnt want to clean up every night.

Yes cold def is a factor. They almost lose a bit of their ability to sense it
