As long as bedwetters are ok with diapers, they are absolutely the best solution. I had to wear cloth diapers with plastic pants until I entered high school. I never stopped my nightly bedwetting but once I was allowed to stop wearing diapers the mid night floods and mess was horrible. I put myself back in diapers after a couple months and was so glad I did. Yes I didn’t like wetting in my sleep but alarms, and meds did nothing for me. Not until my early 30s did I have a through eurodynamic urology study done that discovered I had been living with w neurogenic bladder, probably since birth. This also explained why I struggled with daytime episodes as well. The dr. Basically said my bladder worked more or less like a babies in that the signals didn’t work properly. Wish I’d have known this as a teenager. At least I would have understood the condition was simply out of my control. Anyway diapers are great for doing what they’re designed for. As for me thick pin on cloth with plastic pants are the only diapers that work for me overnight. Tried all kinds of disposables but they all leaked for me.

I still diaper my boys before bed and usually clean them up in the morning. They have been in diapers there entire life so they are used to it and not embarrassed. Sure beats dealing with wet beds in the morning.

been a while so thought i'd post a little update. The boys are older now but they are still diapered for bed. They seem to be wet most mornings when we check their diapers. Surprisingly enough the younger one seems to be having more dry nights.

Ant320 I sent u a message.

I think it's best you still put them in diapers

Your not alone. I recently switched my 12 yo from goodnites to youth diapers. It’s going really well.

I hope your boys get better but it is nice to know other people have the same problems with accidents that I do.

In what situations during the day do they wear?

Your oldest is 15 now, can he change his own nappies now? He must be eager to do it, maybe have him practice during the day and you coach him through it

Still having issues and diapered every night., Starting to think now that they may never outgrow it

Some kids don't. The important thing is to make them feel comfortable, no matter if they do or don't. How do they take it?

Are they trying to use to bathroom before they are diapered? And are they taking off their diapers right away when they wake up to use the bathroom if they need to? For me it's always try to use the bathroom before the bedtime diaper goes on. Doesn't always do anything to help but its a start.

I never covered the embarrassing part about being probably 10-12 and still being diapered by my mom. She wasn’t at all discreet about since I guess because my 3 non bedwetting brothers knew I was in diapers she would hav me lay down on my bed and put them on me, my bedroom door wide open and often one or more of my brothers would watch me being diapered. I’d stand up and put my plastic pants on then my mom would make sure all the edges were tucked in to prevent leaks. I think it was sometime during my 13 th year that I was now putting on my own diapers for bed. I hated that I couldn’t stay dry at night but hated even more feeling like a toddler every night going to bed then feeling helpless waking up soaked every morning.

Have a friend who has two bedwetters 11 and 9 and about 30 minutes before their bedtime she puts them in cloth diapers and they can put their own plastic pants on. She feels it gives them some feeling of having some control over what they wear to bed. She also checks to see that all edges are tucked in. She also told me that both ae wet in the morning

So yes, bedwetting seems to happen just as much today.

I was a chronic nightly bedwetter growing up and My Mother took my nappies away at about 8 or 9 years old on the insistance of our District Nurse. I had to endure wet sheets after that. I went back tom nappies in my teens and continued to wet at night until I was about 22.. Some of us wet the bed longer than others.
