We seem to have foudn one for DD, is it common?
DD is 5 and has been PTd during the day from the age of 24 months. Was a very easy process, lead by herself.
Night time has been an entirely different matter. She has desperately wanted to be dry at night and stopped wearing bed pants after her 4th birthday. We had periods of success and periods of wetting.
Over the months however we think we have foudn the link or cause - drinking anything but water after about 3ish in the afternoon.
Just water and she is fine, no accidents, no getting up, perfectly dry.
Anything else - juice, water, tea, hot chocolate, smoothie, anything - and she will almost definitely wet.
Why is this? Is there anything we can do to help her? Will she grow out of it?
Seems really extreme to ban all other drinks bar water for so long, especially as she does have quite a lot of playdates after school.
Any suggestions?
