Aibuly lax re night dryness

[LoudNowSing]

Dd has just turned five. She's been out of nappies during the day since she was 2.5, but is still in a pull-up at night. About 3/4 days a week, she's dry in the morning.
I've seen it said on here several times that overnight dryness is hormonal, and that if she doesn't have the whatever hormone, then there's no point in trying to teach her to be dry overnight...but still, she is 5 now. Am I being unreasonably lax in not making more of an effort with her in this regard?

We did try for a bit last summer when she had a run of being dry every morning, and she was fine for about ten days/two weeks, then started wetting the bed every night again. Eventually we caved and reintroduced the pull-up.

Are we doing her a disservice in just waiting for her to be ready, though? She doesn't seem to care either way herself.

I think you’re right not to be worried at this stage and I also don’t think you need to be doing any more.

My son was in pull-ups until pretty recently (he’s 6). I could count on the fingers of one hand how many times they were dry in the morning, although we suspected he was doing a big wee in them when he woke up in the morning.

We were firmly of the view that we didn’t want to “lift” him when we went to bed. I know it works for lots of people but for us it felt like we were training him to wee half asleep in the middle of the night and we just didn’t want to head down that route.

He did genuinely just suddenly decide that he wanted to stop wearing night pants and nailed it pretty quickly. I think his mind and his body were just ready. I’m glad we didn’t make a big deal of it, or turned it into some massive issue.
