Do we have twins?? lol  I am at a loss for words as to why my son isnt bothered wearing one when out of bed wide awake in the morning....a wet one at that.  I never get mad or upset with him for wetting the bed because I know he cant help it.  But I do get on him about being lazy and not changing in the morning.  The rule here is that he doesnt leave his room until he changes but I constantly catch him not doing that.  How is he when traveling or spending the night elsewhere?

For night time, its bath, potty, snack, small drink of water, brush teeth, another potty try, diaper and in bed.  I have tried waking him which I hate because he is a bear to go back to sleep.  Limiting drinks.  Making him try to go multiple times before bed.  And I read somewhere that a teaspoon of honey has helped other kids.  That didnt work either.  Half the time he tells me he doesnt have to go and will actually argue with me over just trying to go!  I dont post a lot here but I wish I could reach out to you by email or something so we could bounce ideas off one another.  I guess I should feel a little relieved that there are others that are going through the same thing.[/quote]

He actually stays dry some nights away from home. I’m guessing he doesn’t sleep as well so doesn’t get into the extremely deep sleep like at home. When we are traveling and at hotels or other family members homes I still put a diaper on him. He has a couple friends that I am close with the parents and we allow him to do sleepovers with, he wears a goodnite pull-up for those and brings his sleeping bag. The parents are aware of the issue and makes sure he puts it on before bed. If it leaks we just wash his sleeping bag when he gets home. Surprisingly those moms say he isn’t embarrassed about it at there house either and will wear the wet goodnite after getting up and she has to remind him to go change. I’m happy he is confident enough with himself to do that but also worry about teasing if his friends tell others. [/quote]
