[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s abnormal but probably not sign of serious trouble. I’d have him checked out anyway for UTI, constipation, DI, etc.

And yes, actual nighttime diapers with a booster. And obviously no water within an hour of bedtime. Make sure dinner isn’t too salty.

P.s. at this age and frequency and insistence on your help, I’d also consider that he’s doing this deliberately because he’s scared etc and this is an excuse to see you.

OP again. I'll make for certain RE: this as soon as I'm able. I know from--shall we stay 'direct'-- experience that he does without a doubt genuinely pee in his sleep (and is completely unaware of it) a lot of the time. But I'll absolutely look into this.

Don't mean to sound completely clueless here--sorry! But, what's a 'booster' if you don't mind...?

I hadn't thought of giving actual diapers a try. We've stuck with the pull ups for a while now, because for the most part--they don't really 'leak' necessarily. He just complains about feeling wet, and yucky afterwords. Would diapers actually be any different than the pull ups in that regard..? [/quote]
