3.3yo still needs to wee in the night

[mellongoose]

Has been dry in the day since summer. Is in pull ups at night but has wet through them a few times . Now she is waking up at about 1am and needs me to take her for a wee.

It's saved the washing but she cannot self settle again so comes in with me etc.

I have limited drinks in the evening but not even sure if this is right?! Any ideas on how she can stay dry until morning? I'd love her and I to get a complete nights rest in our own bed!!

I’m 26 and i have to go in the middle of the night I’ll go 😂

Staying dry at night is a hormonal thing and not related to day time toilet training/dryness. It can be normal to wet overnight for a few years yet

I would keep her in pull-ups/nappies until regularly waking with it dry x

Like MrsFox - I'm 41 and I've got up to go to the loo most nights of my life!

Can you take her for the wee before she actually wakes needing it? Mine pretty much stay asleep through that (heads killing around whilst on the toilet, flopping all over the place when I try to pull pjs back up) and then just sink back into bed again after I carry them back. They're way more awake and alert if they wake naturally for a wee.

Heads lolling around that should say, not killing!

At 3 I would say you are lucky she is waking up rather than wetting.

A health nurse fiend said you shouldn't overly limit drinks because the bladder needs to learn how to be full etc so I never did.

My dd2 did this for a while and I just stayed stroking her hand for 5 mins until she went back off. You could always try putting her on a potty when you go to bed. This used to do the trick for dd1. Although I remember stressing about how to stop it! (I obviously found a way because she is 12 and I don't do it anymore

Please don’t limit drinks - being thirsty is horrible and she will just wake asking for water instead.

I have heard some people get the child up at a certain time and take them to the loo then.

I know it is frustrating being woken but maybe she just is that way inclined - I wake multiple times a night for a wee!

My 6yo still gets up in the night for a wee. Sometimes he wakes us to take him, sometimes he goes alone - still half aslep either way.

DH is 44 and gets up for a wee most nights. I sleep like a log and have to hop out of bed the moment i wake to pee like a horse!

I guess she just might be a night time wee type of person then. She has been a light sleeper from day one. I am the complete opposite!! But she's just like DH, then.

Maybe they can go together and I can sleep!!! Or I will wake her and take her at 10pm when I go to bed.

I felt weird about limiting drinks. It's not right IMO but am trying all sorts to see what works. It doesn't!
Thanks all
