5 year old wets the bed, am I doing him a disservice by depending on pull-ups?


My 5 year old has always been a heavy sleeper. Sleepless nights were never a thing. Trying to wake him up in the middle night is nearly impossible. Having such a good sleeper has been a blessing except for his bed wetting. I tried cutting off liquids hours before bedtime, I made sure he peed before bed, I let him go commando for a month in hopes that he would feel that soiling himself was uncomfortable.I finally had enough and replaced his mattress and went back to pull ups. Each morning his pull ups are full despite still monitoring his liquid intake. I know he is not constipated, poops once a day and refuses to flush the toilet, but that's another story.I feel inclined to just keep buying the pull ups, he has to grow out of bed wetting eventually right? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2fwM1kd
