Advice: My already potty trained toddler is wetting the bed again.

Hi, 

 My daughter is 25 months old, and she's been day potty trained since 18 months, and completely potty trained by 21 months. She only had a handful of accidents overnight, which has been wonderful. Now, for the past two weeks, she has wet the bed just about every night. In the morning she tells me "Yes, I wet the bed! Sorry!". Almost like she's happy about it, but it's no big deal because mommy says "its ok" (I'm supposed to reassure her after accidents, right? I usually say "Uh-oh! and that its ok). Then she asks to go to the potty, but doesn't have to actually go. 

So, I'm confused. She hasn't been having anything to drink more than two hours before bed. She goes potty before bed, as usual. The only thing I can think of is that she has been sleeping in a little longer. She used to wake up around 7:15-7:30, now it's more like 8:15-8:30. (she goes to bed later, too)

So, I don't quite know what to do. I don't want to put her back into trainers at night, I feel like that's a step backwards. However, she can't put her panties on and off by herself. She's also still sleeping in a crib. (We were going to put her in a toddler bed when she turned two, but we just moved and didn't think it was a good time)

I thought about just trying to get her to be able to put her panties/pants on and off by herself, switching her to a toddler bed, giving her access to a potty at night. Any ideas/suggestions/advice is greatly appreciated!  I just don't understand why she's been accident free for 3-4ish months at night and now all of the sudden she's not.

    Is she actually waking up at night when she goes or does she keep right through it? Putting her in the toddler bed won't help if she's not even waking. 

    Has she gone though a growth spurt? I've heard that can cause night time regressions.

    Since she's already wetting the bed right now, switch her bed over.  She'll probably wet the bed when you do that transition anyway.  Then, have her help you change the sheets on the bed and put on new sheets when she does wet the bed.

    Did she get her two year molars already?  Is she going through a growth spurt?

    I think she is going through a growth spurt, since she's eating everything in sight. I will definitely try the sheets idea. Thanks ladies!
