Dry at night

Most children: 3y–5y

What it is

Maturation, not training: 1 in 5 five-year-olds and 1 in 10 seven-year-olds still wet the bed. Evaluated (and treatable) from 7.

Start preparing

1. No fluids in the hour before bed, pee last thing; night diapers off after 14 dry mornings.
2. Never punish; a waterproof sheet and calm change; from 7: bedwetting alarm via the pediatrician.
