[quote=Anonymous]Mine just outgrew it last year at 11. We tried many things around the age that your son is because we thought if we tried hard enough we could make it happen. After 7 months of non stop trying of alarms, limiting liquids, dream pees, etc, we stopped. Upgraded to Goodnights and waking him to pee before we turned in for the night. Doctor said he was physically fine though small for his age and a deep sleeper. 
It was tough to be patient, but both my DH and I used to be bedwetters so we knew there was an end somewhere. 
It was extra tough for him as his twin was night- trained at 2 1/2. My DH had also experienced a lot of shaming (knowing my MIL, I can imagine.) In trying to "help" DS, I would catch my DH subtly taunting him. We argued about it, but DH agreed to back off knowing that his upbringing was probably influencing him. At the point that my son's sleep needs decreased slightly and his body physically grew larger, we all knew success was possible. We used the alarm as a transition and then shortly nothing was needed. DS lead the planning on this and it was very smooth.
Good luck on your path[/quote]
