Ok my 3 year old daughter is potty trained except for nap time and bed time. I don't give her drinks after 6:30 at night and I make her go to the bathroom before bed but she always wakes up wet. Is there something that I am missing? Does anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking about setting an alarm and waking her up at a certain time each night but I could just see her screaming and waking up her brother. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

It isn't too unusual for some 3 year olds to still have some trouble staying dry at night, but this might be something to ask a nurse or doctor about Being dry during the day and then again at night while sleeping are two different things. Most kids outgrow it by the age of 4.

I hope so. I will continue working with her and just give her a little more time.

My son is also 3 and potty trained. For a long time he did not wet at night then recently he started it. So at night time and nap time I put a pull up on him. Usually at night as soon as he gets a bath he puts a pull up on and he associates bed time with a pull upl Everytime I put a pull up on him he says "its time for bed". But the way I see it is, if he uses the potty during the day then I am happy. I can deal with him wearing pull ups at night.

As of right now I am not minding her still wearing pullups at night. I guess it just kinda concerns me because of my nephew who is 10 and still wears pullups at night. I will work with my daugher to get her out of pullups
