Has he had a blood test to see if he's producing the hormone that you need to be dry at night?

Go on the ERIC website- it's really good.

Hi thank you for your reply, no he hasn’t had any tests done. If I’m honest I didn’t know there was such a test but I really appreciate your reply thank you x

ERIC have an advice line you can call, they were super nice when I called so would be worth a try

It's hormonal. My son was over 9 before he was dry at night. We'd just had a conversation with Doctors and shortly after he was dry. We'd held off as wasn't kern to medicate

I’m going to check that website out thank you. I think I might need to visit doctors with him, he has issues which haven’t been diagnosed but he has tics and obviously wearing a nappy for bed xx
