My oldest was not night trained until she was well over 5 1/2 years old. She was day trained at 22 months, but the nighttime thing, well, it just wasn’t there, no matter what, until quite recently. She was, right up until she night trained, a very heavy wetter, which meant that we very quickly realized that traditional training pants were not going to cut it, especially as she got older and as her bladder grew along with her. GoodNites® were one thing that really helped us as she got older and didn’t want “baby” pullups- and I couldn’t blame her. The GoodNites® looked and felt to her more like “big girl” pants and weren’t as upsetting to wear. I thought the GoodNites® were- and still are- a great option for bigger kids who still need some absorbancy at night- no one wants to wake up wet in the middle of the night or the morning, and I knew if she had these on she might have had an accident but her pajamas and sheets wouldn’t be affected.
I know my son and now my youngest don’t want anything “babyish” – they want to look, feel and act like big kids. My son was fortunate enough to night train when he day trained, but we’re still in progress with my youngest and I have no idea how long she’ll need absorbancy at night-but I can tell you that if she needs it, we’ll grab for GoodNites®. Its hard enough to be a little kid trying to be a big kid without having accidents at night. I’m glad there are options like this out there, especially as my kids get older and pullups aren’t “common” for kids to use- I like knowing there is an option that looks and feels a lot more like underwear, with more subtle designs better suited for a “big kid” on them!

I learned:
bedwetting is an involuntary condition for the child and generally beyond her control, it is not something you can force or train to go away. In most cases, the child’s bladder needs time to develop properly, and unfortunately there is no magic moment when this will happen for any particular child
Thanks for the contest.
