[QUOTE="Peace Please, post: 441772, member: 11492"] I like the idea of letting Blue pick out what pull-ups he WOULD wear. Personally, I don't believe he wets the bed on purpose, and I can also understand his reluctance to wear a "diaper" to bed. This is not something that I'm happy to put out there, but I wet the bed until I was 16, almost every night. My parents tried everything. They took me to doctors. I even spent the night in the hospital once for a "study". They bought one of those alarms that go off when one drop of moisture is present. It would go off and wake everyone else in the house up but me, so that went away quick. LOL. They tried to get me to wear "diapers" to bed, but I refused because it was embarassing to me. Eventually, it was found that my pelvic floor muscles were very weak and I am a very deep sleeper. When I was 16, a doctor told me to exercise the muscles that I use to hold it when I'm awake a few times a day to strengthen those muscles. Just a couple weeks later, the bedwetting stopped and it's never happened again. I know it's frustrating that he is refusing to wear a pull-up and then getting upset when his bed clothes are wet. My parents told me that since I refused to wear one to bed, I was responsible for getting the wet sheets off my bed and remaking my bed in the middle of the night. They left a couple sets of sheets, blankets and pajamas on a bench in my room for me. Is Blue able to make his own bed? If he is and still refuses to wear a pull-up, this could keep you from being woken up in the middle of the night. [/QUOTE]
