He's not had a single dry night, normally at 6 even if they wet there is an occassional dry night here and there, Ethan has never been dry at night. I have not made it an issue, but is it time to go to the doctor about this?

doc might put your mind to rest that it's not unusual. Any daytime problems?

There's a good website called Enuresis resource and information centre which provides lots of useful information about how to combat bed-wetting.

DD still wears pull ups to bed and is never dry and ds 8 has
only been dry about a year. He just spontaneously stopped wetting on his own.

I don't think the doctor will even investigate until age 7 because it is so common.

DD1 is 6.5 & been dry maybe 3 times. Don't think docs will do anything till 7. Ours tried to refer us to enuresis clinic but was knocked back as she was too young. Bloody expensive though!

Thanks everyone, this has put my mind at rest alot. I tohught not having one dry night in 6 years was odd.

lljkk: apart from the very occasional accident, normally weeks apart, he seems fine during the day.
