I’d say this, ask your child what they would prefer. I don’t know how old your child is, which may be relevant.and may not be. I think you’re doing a great job! 50% of the time is great and something to celebrate. If resistance arises, back off and try again in a few weeks or month’s time. Don’t force your child out of diapers or Pull-Ups if they resist.If they are dry during the day and dry during naps, I’d certainly give it a try without them. Don’t assume your child can’t make it through the night without a Pull Up.This will only increase your child’s anxiety and frustration. Even when you’re uber frustrated cleaning the sheets for the one hundredth time, to do your best to hide disappointment when your child wets the bed. Don’t punish a child for wetting the bed.Celebrate success whenever it happens (any dry nap, dry night, less pee than usual, getting from the bed to the potty in the middle of the night).Chances are, they were! Provide them support. Tell your child if one of their parents was a bed wetter.Tell your child it’s not their fault for wetting the bed.

Of course, achieving full potty training success is a huge milestone in every child’s life. If there is a diaper on, there may be less motivation to form this connection. Achieving nighttime dryness demands connecting their brain with their bladder. If your child is potty trained but wears a Pulls Up/diaper at night, never having tried a night without them, there may be less incentive to potty train. Watch the video for more information, but the cliff notes: although Pull Ups are convenient, at times they may hinder and prolong bed wetting.

Know this, I talk about bed wetting every single week in clinic.īed wetting is familial and fortunately, often improves simply with time. You’re not alone in your struggle to help your child stay dry at night, even if it feels that way at times. If your child is wetting the bed you certainly know that may be the understatement of the week. My take on Pull Ups: get out of them as soon as possible! Easier said than done, of course.īed wetting is a common challenge for children (and their families).
