Still not dry at night!

[cindersrella]

DD is 4 and there are no signs of her having dry nights yet!

Does anyone have any tips on how to help get her dry.

She is my second child but first was dry day and night at 2.... she led me and just kind of did it.

4 yr old is still wet at night. Goes nuts when she is walked or carried to the toilet at night before I go to bed.

She doesn't overly drink before bed time or during the day.

Any advise would be helpful😀

Some aren't dry until 5/6/7! All normal.

Let her grow out of it in her own time!!! It's not an issue until age 9.

My child wasn’t completely dry until 8

That's reassuring. My nephew is 7 and still isn't 100% dry but I am unsure if this is connected to his Aspergers, my friends daughter is 16 and has to take meds to ensure she is dry even now. She get soo embarrased by it.

I have three children age 10, 8 and 5 and not one of them are dry at night. It costs us a fortune in pyjama pants but it’s not something they can help either. It’s to do with a hormone they secrete and in some children this isn’t produced until they are older.

The doctor said this about my family member too. Do you think it's and hereditary problem?

My second one was dry at night at 2.

My first still isn’t at 4.5. I don’t know how much is phychological and how much is physical but either way she’ll do it when she’s ready.

My first was dry at night at 2. My second still wears nighttime nappies at 6. As soon as I heard it was biological and related to a hormone I stopped worrying.

It's seems strange that's it appears to be mainly 2nd children that take longer.
I thought it was me not having the time or not making more of an effort than I thought I may have done with the first...

With ds who was 3 at the time we used to put him to bed with no nappy after he had had a wee then when we went to bed we carried him downstairs,he had a half awake wee then put back to bed.Really worked

So sorry just seen that youve tried that

DC1 was 7, DC2 was 2, DC3 was 4! All fine now.

You can't train a child to be dry at night. Carry on using nappies and stop waking her up to take her to the toilet. That does no good at all.
Until her body stays produces the hormone that stops her producing urine at night she won't be dry overnight.

Use waterproof mattress protectors, disposable bed mats, night nappies. If she's still not dry at night when she's older see the doctor about taking the relevant hormone in tiny tablet form.

Llang I tried it twice and it upset her so I stopped which is why I came here for any tips. I am glad I am not the only one who's child isn't trained at night as it started to worry me as my older girl was very early.

My daughter was dry in the day at her 2nd birthday - she was still wet at night at 5.5. I bought a bed wetting alarm from Amazon and she was dry within a month. She hasn’t had a wet night since (over a year)!

This one

My 4.5 year old (son) still isn't dry at night. But he doesn't want to wear dry nites anymore. When we stopped he wet the bed for 4 nights, then was dry for a week, then for the last week he has started wetting the bed at least once a night. I've asked him what he wants to do, as I think he would be upset if I forced him back in to nappies, and he wants to carry on not wearing them! So. Much. Washing!!!!!
