[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to toilet train for nighttime, did you just skip that part of the process?[/quote]

WTF are you talking about?  I did nothing to toilet train my kids at night.  We toilet trained them, and then they naturally stopped peeing at night.  Which is what happens as most bodies mature a bit.  For some kids, it's takes a long time.  There is no "training", only mitigation straegies.  The kid is asleep.  It's not a conscious choice that they are making.  Shame does not fix it!  Surprise![/quote]

NP here

We night trained our son. Not saying it works for every kid, but it is not impossible. When my son was almost 3 he still woke up with a very full diaper every morning and had never once woken up dry. He would also poop in his diaper first thing every morning so to poop train him we took away all diapers. He wet the bed almost every night for a week. The second week he wet it less and by the 3rd week he never wet the bed again. We also never limited liquids or woke him to use the bathroom. Now he would wake up right when he wet the bed, had he slept through wetting the bet then maybe he would not have been able to be night trained. I will also say that he never wakes up to use the restroom during the night so he is fully capable of holding it all night. Heck he usually doesn't even pee until a hour after he has been awake.

On another note. my 9 yr old nephew just stopped wearing a pull-up to bed and started waking up dry. Want to know what changed? He stopped sleeping on the top bunk. Once he moved to his own room and no longer had to climb down a ladder he suddenly didn't need a diaper anymore.

My point- not all bed wetting is "genetic"/impossible to fix sometimes it is situational and kids can be trained. [/quote]
