[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even the daughter wearing them at 6.5 is a red flag. Unless there is something physically or mentally wrong, this simply shouldn't be happening. [/quote] The American Academy of Pediatrics says that 20% of 5-year-olds, 10% of 7-year-olds, and 5% of 10-year-olds may still wet the bed. What do you know that they don't? http://patiented.aap.org/content2.aspx?aid=5444[/quote] Yes, and since it runs in families, it makes total sense that brother and sister would both be late night trainers. My DS was in pullups until almost 8. What we did, over the summer, is put him in PJs, then wake him up about 11 or midnight to use the bathroom before we went to bed. A summer of that, and he was dry by the school year, even though he'd been wet ever night before we started the midnight waking. (I was a bedwetter, so I knew not to be alarmed, and that he wasn't being lazy. He was simply a hard sleeper, as am I.)[/quote]
