Night time toilet training

Please could I have advice on night nappies/night training.

DD was very easy to potty train and has been out of nappies during the day since she was 2.5. However we have kept the night nappies and she is now 4.5.

We have tried removing them and did so for a week but she wet the bed constantly throughout the night and didn’t seem aware of it. We have tried getting her to go to the toilet before bedtime, and encouraging her to go during the night if she needs it by putting a potty in her room next to a nightlight but it hasn’t seemed to work.

Now I’m wondering if she perhaps just isn’t ready but equally I’m nervous that we may have left night nappies for too long and she is now used to them and it’s going to be hard to get her out of them.

Grateful for any advice on how people have done it and at what age etc. I don’t want her to feel bad for wetting the bed as know it’s a hard thing to learn and tied to physical development.

Thank you!!
