Night time training - gone backwards

Dd 3.10 has been daytime trained since 2.9, but showed no signs of being dry at night until just over a month ago when she was waking with a dry pull-up every morning. We stopped using pull ups and except for a very rare accident she was dry each morning, and was able to wake for a wee if she needed one.

For the last week she has woken wet every single morning :( very upsetting for her. I'm not sure what to do now - should we go back into pull ups at night (broached the idea this morning - she was not keen) or carry on and hope things improve.

We do try to help by not giving her drinks after 6pm, but that doesn't seem to make a difference.

Oh wise mumsnetters - what shall I do? I think my washing machine is going to go on strike due to overwork!

Yes I would go back to pull ups. She's very young to be night time trained ( you can't actually train them to be dry at night...they need to produce a hormone first which slows urine production at night)

Mine were close to 5 before they were reliable at night.

Thanks Jenny. I think you might be right - not looking forward to her reaction to pull ups again! She's very, erm, opinionated Grin

My MIL has suggested trying a 'dream wee' but I've heard mixed views about that - some swear by it, others say it's pointless as it doesn't teach them to wake to wee
