Bed wettinf

Please help, my daughter turns 3 at the end of the month, she has been fully potty trained during the day for atleast 6-8 months now, she has also been out of pull ups at night time for about 4 months, she doesn’t sleep through the night in her own bed but I do put her to sleep in her room and then I will take her to the toilet about 2 hours after she’s gone to sleep. Then she usually comes into my room about another 2 hours later, the problem I’m having is when she sleeps in my bed she will sleep for 6+ hours without wetting my bed, but she constantly wets her bed when she’s woken up in her own bed before she comes into my room?! I don’t want to put her back in pull ups for the night time as that will back track on potty training and she can clearly hold her urine as she never wets my bed and sleeps in my bed for more hours than she does her own bed? What am I supposed to do as she’s not even asleep when she’s wetting her bed, she seems to wake up wet herself and then come into my room, rather than wake up and tell me she needs the toilet or take herself to the toilet like she does during the day etc?

It sounds like she is way too little to be out of pull ups at night. She is still only 2. She has done brilliantly to be dry in the daytime at this she. Night is a challenge as it is hormonal as well as training.

She's far too young to be out of pull ups. Most kids I know are out of them between 4-5.

I know what you are saying but it seems like she can hold her urine, as during the day she’s absolutely fine and also when she sleeps in my bed with me she holds her urine all night? So the only issue is when she is in her room and wakes up to come into my bed 😕

Night time and day time dryness are completely different. Just because she's dry in the day doesn't mean she will be at night until the right hormones kick in.

Why the pressure? You talk to most parents at nursery and probably all the 2 year olds wear pull ups at night.
It’s not a competition or sign of good parenting who can be dry the fastest. To be dry in the daytime at 2 is impressive

My 7yo girl is still in pull ups. Multiple doctors have confirmed that you can't train it, it happens when their body is ready. You can only medicate that, and I don't want to do that unless we're getting to secondary school
