3 Green Bedwetting Enuresis Alarm with Loud Sound and Strong Vibration for Boys or Girls, Proven Solution for Bedwetters…

We were at wits' end. Our son is soon to turn 5 & had accidents every night. He remained in pullups / goodnights and even then we had to use bed protection pads because he went so much that it would leak. He would sleep right through it all. We tried taking away the goodnights & waking him up to go; only to find that he was almost impossible to wake. It wasn't working, so I finally decided to try this alarm. The 1st night, he jumped out of his skin when it went off, but gradually got better. However, a couple of times he woke up just before he pee'd and so that gave me hope. He was peeing 5x a night. After the 1st 10 days, my wife was ready to throw in the towel, but I pushed forward and noticed on the 3rd week that he was starting to wake up earlier and pee fewer times. That week he started to more consistently wake up before peeing, and would come get us for help going potty (he had trouble with the alarm being attached to his underwear at first). This became a habit that we will have to address next. He had one dry night that week, then regressed a bit. The next week, he had one dry night...then 2 in a row...then 3...and went 11 nights dry (waking up once a night on average to go potty--with our assistance) before having an accident and the alarm waking him. He had a couple of accident nights, then started a new run. He is currently at 15 days and in the last week has stayed dry the entire night (not waking once) twice. I have a theory that the device is not only doing Pavlovian conditioning to wake up when the bladder is full, but has a secondary effect to upregulate the hormones that reduce urine production at night. Because he is making much less urine at night now with no other changes to his routine.Some tips:- We use a thin boxer-brief style underwear...this seems to work best with the sensor clip.- We clip the sensor as close to where the urine will start as possible.- We use a lot of praise and encouragement, as well as milestone rewards.- We have used a goodnights over the regular underwear and sensor. This allows the sensor to still do its thing while protecting the bed if there is an accident. It also helps to keep your kid from knocking the clip off at night if they are active sleepers like ours. We are going to start trying without the goodnights, and then try without the alarm once we have a few more nights down solid.- Change the batteries after 2 weeks if the alarm has been going off. We had one night where it didn't go off about 2 weeks in & I think the batteries were getting week.- Talk to your child every night about what happens with the alarm if it goes off; and we have made sure to tell him "if you wake up at night, you need to get up and go to the potty." We remind him of this EVERY NIGHT. Even so, a couple of times I have seen him on the monitor camera sit up awake in bed and not get up. When that happens, I go tell him to get up and go potty--to reinforce the training.- Don't get upset if they have accidents. They can't help it. We explained that the purpose of the alarm was to help him stay dry. He became engaged as soon as he understood that and he *wanted* to stay dry. That is key, I think.- Use the reward chart (star stickers). It's simple, but kids really like to see their progress...especially if rewards are attached.- Most of all, DON'T GIVE UP!

Our son (DS, 3.5 yrs old) was daytime trained for a while and not nighttime trained. We started using the Wet-Stop alarm last month. DS is a heavy sleeper and has occasional night terrors. He's been sleeping with Pull-Ups for over a year. Prior to his nighttime training, he never woke on his own to go potty during the night. Here's our potty-training story:Day 1:Before bedtime, we introduced the alarm and showed him how it works. We let him play around with it and set it off so he could feel and hear what it would be like. We decided to leave both the sound and vibration on because he's such a heavy sleeper--the sound would also allow us to hear it go off and help him out of bed. DS thought the alarm was pretty cool.We decided to clip the sensor on the outside of his training undies just before bed. (We changed our strategy throughout the training...read on.)1.5 hrs into sleep and the alarm went off. It is LOUD. (Yes, we tested it beforehand, but it seems 20x louder when it sounds in the dead of the night.) It freaked him out and he was in a crying daze. Not sure if the alarm caused him to stop peeing, as his underwear was soaked through and by the time we made it to the toilet, there was hardly any pee left.* (see my comment under Week 3 re: sensor placement)He woke up two more times during the night, each time just as startled and angry. He did NOT like this training one bit...which, we were hoping, would be incentive for him to catch on quicker.Week 1:DS woke up an average of 3-4 times every night from the alarm. And we were always up with him with each alarm to help get him out of bed, to the toilet, and then into clean undies and pants (and sometimes sheets). He eventually started sleeping through the blaring loud sound and vibration (amazing) and continued emptying his bladder in bed, which was super discouraging, but we kept at it.Week 2:We changed two things in the second week:1) We started layering up his training undies, using a combo of brands/absorbencies (look at my other reviews if interested) bc we got tired of washing his sheets every night. (Easier to wash multiple pairs of underwear than sheets!) We decided against using Pull-Ups with the alarm bc we wanted DS to get used to the idea of not wearing Pull-Ups anymore...we packed them all up and said goodbye to them and the while bit. So while it's definitely more work, we decided it was worth it.2) we stopped helping him out of bed. When the alarm would go off, we would go to his room but stay in his doorway and wait for him to get out of bed on his own (which sometimes took forever and was super annoying but he's gotta learn!). We'd then walk with him to the bathroom and help him out of his 2-3 layers of undies to go potty. This week, he had a bit more pee in the toilet. Yay! But still as grumpy as ever and often screaming and crying bc he's "so sleepy!" and "why can't I just sleeeeeeeeeeep?!?!?"Week 3:We did one thing differently this week:1) underwear / sensor placement: since we were using absorbent training undies, we wondered if the alarm was sounding AFTER he had already emptied his bladder. There is no place to clip the sensor on the outside of the crotch area that didn't have some type of absorbent layer, and DS wasn't letting us clip the sensor inside his undies (understandably uncomfortable). So we decided to use regular undies as his first layer; clip the sensor on the crotch fold of the undies, then layer up with 1-2 training undies for leak protection.DS would still sleep through the alarm at times but based on the wetness of his underwear he seemed to, either consciously or subconsciously, be stopping his flow quicker while still in bed. Most of this week, his leaks were contained within the second layer of underwear and we may have had to change his PJs only a handful of times. A couple mornings, he got up earlier than us and went potty by himself--without the alarm even waking him--and went back to bed! (We found pee in the toilet..DS doesn't flush "because mommy and daddy are sleeping!"...aw.)Week 4:The alarm only goes off 1-2 times a night now; a couple nights, it didn't even go off. Hallelujah! Hubs and I thought that perhaps the sensor hadn't been clipped in right and that he had wet the bed (which has happened before) but to our pleasant surprise, no wet undies and pee in the toilet!DS has not wet the bed in over a week now. He gets up 1-2 times a night to go on his own. We still use the sensor and double-up his undies, which he doesn't mind. We had no idea he would catch on this quickly and are so thankful!
