[QUOTE="Christy, post: 160339, member: 225"] Sorry that you are taking a step backward, so to speak. We've been there and is some ways are still there. My son (now 9) still has frequent nighttime wetting and occassionally daytime accidents. He wet himself almost everyday in the third grade. Like gvcmom mentioned in her reply, my son just refuses to listen to his body when he is engaged in something or over-stimulated by his environment. We have him wear pull-ups when he's going somewhere where he is unlikely to stop and use the toilet (like a party or his tae kwon do lessons). They are not noticable to others, pull-ups even makes the Goodnight brand that look like underwear on the outside. We got him a wristwatch with an hourly timer and had him try the bathroom everytime it beeps. We have just gotten to the stage where he will got to the bathroom without being prompted, but still has accidents when he is really focused on something like a lego project or an exiciting movie. I understand your frustration and concern but also agree with what SaraPA said about a developmental range so maybe your daughter needs more time in this area. Try not to make it a big deal for your daughter and just tell her they are needed until she is able to keep dry on her own. Good Luck, Christy [/QUOTE]
