I hope to God this will not be me.  DS has been day trained since age 2 and 4 months, but he is 4.5 and still pees himself at night regularly.  We've tried several different things, and nothing works.  His pediatrician told us to put a pullup on him at night, which we did, but I fear it is making things worse because I have caught him peeing in it while still awake (I have a super sensitive nose).  It is so disheartening and disappointing for me to see him [u]choose[/u] to pee in a pullup after being trained for [u]years[/u]. It just makes no sense to me, because he would die of shame if he wore and peed in a pullup during the day, but at night, he has no qualms about it at all.  Accidents while sleeping are one thing, being to lazy to get up and go into the bathroom while awake is an entirely different thing.  I am considering letting him go back to wetting the sheets again.

It only takes a week. Take him in the middle of the night (before you go to bed). Otherwise, yes, you are right, the pull-up makes them pee (I don't think it is intentional; I think the sensation of the diaper tells their brain it is ok). It will be over soon if you push through and don't look back. Good luck![/quote]
