[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a 7yo heavy sleeper who was still waking up with heavy overnight diapers size 6, despite limiting fluids, etc. The few times she didn't have a diaper, she'd soak the sheets and not wake up. Only once recently did she wake up dry w/o a diaper. After many discussions with spouse, we decided to do away with the diapers. I was skeptical and wanted to do an alarm, but he wanted to try it. We did a dream pee at 11. Lots of stripping off top layer of sheets in the middle of the night or morning, and lots of laundry. After lots of sleep disruption over several weeks, we started to see that she was staying dry sometimes. After several months, we finally stopped the dream pee. A year and a half later, she's always dry at night. I don't know if the no-diaper intervention helped hasten things, or whether she was outgrowing it anyway. Just our anecdote.[/quote] ^^That is solid parenting. Do the hard work![/quote]
