If it’s leaking every night you should try something else. You might have better success with just a regular diaper that you can adjust the tapes to fit. They make a size 7 now that can accommodate bigger kids.

We've done this with my 8 year old, they're the only thing that has worked, we've tried every other product but could only avoid leaks with diapers for now.

My daughter is almost 8 and wears a pull up to bed. Yes, they do leak sometimes, I don't see her actually agreeing to wear a diaper let alone fit in one. Even with her being small for her age, I don't see them fitting. Do you get the adult ones?

9YO DS still wets the bed about 2-3x a week.

For those struggling with leaks, I highly recommend these under your mattress protectors (unless you already use a rubber encasement)

My now 38 year old older brother wet the bed probably until middle school. He went on to go to an Ivy League school. Don’t sweat the small stuff.

He seem to mind? I don’t have the time to wash the bed every day so whatever makes that possible.

She did for the first couple of days, we didn't call them diapers. But we made a routine for it and now she doesn't mind at all. So we have a set time we put them on straight after a bath. It works well for now and we've probably got a year before we grow out of them.

How big is he? My 9 year old is 85 lbs. I have trouble imagining this fitting at all.

She's just over 60lbs. You must have a very big kid! We've only just moved onto the size 8s, the huggies little movers are working perfectly for now as the fit can be customised to her

It took a couple of nights for her to get used to it, but the size 8s still fit well for us. When we didn't have a leak she was okay with it and it's been the routine for 2 years. We try pull ups on occasion but she's not really got a size that fits well at the moment. When she does we'll move over, probably in a few months

She is able to manage them and put them on by herself I assume, correct?

No myself or DH put them on her still once she's finished in the bath. She doesn't mind it at the moment but if there was challenge from her then we'd go back and try the pull ups. She's the oldest child so enjoys the extra bedtime attention and much prefers not waking up in damp bedding as happened before.

Put them on her? Not like a baby right? How long after bath is her bedtime?

No, not like a baby. She has to lay on her bed to put them on but it's a quick process and then she gets ready herself. She found them uncomfortableputting them on herself, but also said it was as uncomfortable having to wake up to wet bedding.It's about 30 mins before bedtime, we read before bed and then it's lights out. She never needed the toilet before bed in her pull up. If she asked to go at all again, we'd probably risk the leaks we had previously.

I would still encourage her to try to go potty right before she gets into bed. How is she during the day? Has she had sleepovers yet?

She has to go before we put the diaper on. She's mostly fine in the day. She does still struggle to hold for a while so there is the odd accident in the car for example. We bring spare clothes for those to make it easy to sort out. We've been through a few paediatrician visits and they think she has overactive bladder so we expect these. It will improve with age, but essentially her bladder isn't quire as mature as expected for an 8 year old.

We haven't done sleepovers yet. If we do I will speak to the parents. We will probably limit drinks and use pull ups as that should mean we don't have the problems we have currently.

I make sure my daughter goes before any car ride. It's a good 40 minutes to the nearest Walmart here. It's been a while since she had an accident in the car. I believe the last time was that we were on a dead stop on the highway. Can she or has she asked to wear something when in the care depending how long the car ride is?

Me personally, I would hold off on sleepovers until she stops to avoid any embarrassment.

She does go in the morning it's not laziness. She wakes up soaked so I don't think 30 minutes will make a difference. She has full responsibility for her bed routine, she still enjoys reading together and we wont stop that if she wants it. and she can't put it on comfortably.

We make her go before ever leaving the house, but the grocery store we like is a similar distance, and there's not good places to stop. She's not suggested and I've not offered. They're only a couple of times a month, which for all the trips out is manageable.

I want her to do sleepovers soon, but agree it could be embarrassing for her.

Some kids are just heavy sleepers and will take longer before they are able to stay dry overnight, it’s perfectly normal.
