[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It just occurred to me that I've been buying some form of diaper/pull-ups for my son for 7+ years now, as I was finalizing another amazon order for the things.

Sigh.

Am I the only one that feels utterly defeated that I have a 7 year old that still pees the bed EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT?? I don't mean occasional accidents once in a blue moon, I mean he wakes up with his pull-up (we use Goodnites) full, like a single drop away from a gel-bead explosion. Very often, they leak anyways...which makes me feel all the more foolish for wasting money on pull ups for all these years. Last night he leaked through the Goodnight, through sheets, blankets, everything. He was wet up to his shoulders.

Does anyone have any kind of an alternative suggestion..? I'd even be willing to use cloth--as long as we can find something, anything...that could hold up to the amount of pee a 7 year old heavy wetter can put out overnight.[/quote]

Mine didn't stop having accidents at night until he was 9. It is normal. Talk to your pediatrician if you are worried but present it as matter of fact. Your child is having accidents at night, he doesn't wake up when he needs to pee, and his accidents are large enough to make their way through the Goodnites. Don't say it in a way that makes it sound like you thin it is a problem or embarrassing because it is normal or might be a medical problem. You don't want your child to feel like he is doing something wrong. [/quote]
