Dry all night?
My preschooler still wears Pull-Ups at night because she pees in her sleep. When can I expect her not to need them anymore?
The last step of potty training — where you take them out of diapers at nighttime — can be the most challenging.
THE EXPERTS SAY…
Dr Omran: Occasional bed wetting is normal until your child reaches six to seven years of age. If it persists after that, it needs to be addressed by a urologist.
Michi: Some children do wet at night. If your child is a deep sleeper they will probably wet at night until they start producing enough of a hormone which limits the amount of pee produced when sleeping. This can happen anytime from two years old.
