bedwetting 6 yr old

abby8279

So my 6 yr old has been potty trained since she was 2.  She would wake herself in the night and use the toilet and everything.  But for the last 1 1/2 yrs she has gone through phases of bedwetting.  We had gone a super long stretch where she didn't have any accidents so I thought she was done with all that.  But in this past month the bedwetting has come back!  We have limited her drinking at night time.  We have woken her before we go to bed to have her use the potty.  I have tried pull-ups and goodnites and she pees right out of those.  I have used those bed pads but she sometimes pees off the edge and/or gets the top blankets.  So my last try I went to our CD store and got her some Super Undies.  Last night was the first night where she wore them and peed and unfortunately she leaked a little.  

My questions are: Are there any bedwetting tips you can give me?  Should we stick with the Super Undies and either add a prefold or get their extra inserts OR is there a better bedwetting pant out there?  We are within the 15 days that we could return it if there are better options (especially since I spent $35 on it).

I don't have any experience with this since I'm expecting my first, but one of my younger sisters had a bed-wetting problem for years. I remember my dad getting so frustrated because he didn't know what else he could do.

Someone recommended something like this to him. It's a SleepDry Alarm. It detects a little bit of moisture and a beeping sound will go off to wake the child up. I just remember that my sister referred to it as Starry.

My brother had one of these alarms as well and I believe it worked for him.  I would look into one for sure.
