[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have twins.  One was night trained at age 4.  The other finally finished with night pants at 8.5.  The one who was not night trained was the deeper sleeper and just could not wake up from the need to urinate.  He still doesn't, but at some point between just before their 8th birthday and about 8 years 5 months, his body finally got enough control to hold it in until he woke up in the morning.  From just before their 8th birthday until 8y5m, he just started having more and more dry days.

And a tip.  If your larger child is still wetting night pants at night and sometimes overflowing the nights pants, get some long maxipads and put then inside the night pants.  They act as diaper doublers, but are so much less expensive than the diaper doublers.  And they hold the pee in very well.  We used to get the inexpensive generic brand super long maxipads and they worked great at keeping the pee inside the night pants.  Don't get the thin ones or the ones with wings, but get the superlong ones.

It was worth the cost of a few packs of cheap maxipads to avoid having to deal with a wet bed.[/quote]

Great advice- thank you![/quote]
