Bed wetting alarm - what to expect?

[FusionChefGeoff]

My nearly 7 year old DS is starting to feel embarrassed that he's not yet dry at night. We've tried a couple of times for a few nights but with no pressure (and no improvement) so have just kept 'nighttime pants' hoping that one day he'd wake up dry.

However, as he's now keen to try again, we used a bed wetting alarm for the first time last night.

It was very effective and he was very good so woke quickly and headed straight to the loo etc. But there were 5 wees!! And at that point (3.30am) the poor boy was exhausted and asked to put his nighttime pants back on.

Is that normal? Should we persevere and hope to see a reduction / improvement soon? Any other advice?

I can’t give any advice I’m afraid but I always recommend the ERIC website to people. Loads of information on there. I’m not sure the website would answer your specific question but they have a great phone or email helpline.

That sounds like a lot. Perhaps work on stretching the bladder gradually and then restricting liquids before bedtime
