[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you tried a Bedwetting alarm? That’s what worked for our son. He was in such a deep sleep that he couldn’t “hear” his body’s signal to get up a pee. The issue is that it will take several weeks of focused effort. He won’t hear the alarm at first, and you will have to get into the room immediately to put his feet on the floor and walk him to the bathroom. At first he will have already peed by the time you get to the bathroom. That’s okay. With consistent use, he’ll soon stop at the first drop of pee that hits the sensor attached to his underwear. And then finally he’ll wake up on his own to pee.

Invest in bed pads. They’re quilted on one side and plastic on the other. They go on top of the  fitted sheet. Just pull the wet one off, put a dry one on, put on fresh underwear, reattach the alarm and go back to bed. The pads are washable.

We got the bed alarm and pads at www.bedwettingstore.com. The alarm clips to the underwear and runs up to the pajama top where you pin it to his shoulder. The alarm is obnoxious.

Again, it takes a while. Once he goes 14 nights dry, you’re almost done. [/quote]

Do this. It’s physiological. Your kid is not doing this on purpose anymore than someone snoring is doing it on purpose.

Tell your spouse to stand down unless he is coming to the table with some actual evidence-based solutions. [/quote]
