During the day, if he's really engrossed in something, I still have to remind him to go to the toilet or he wets himself but its at night thats the real problem. We've been pull up free now for about 6 weeks and I'd reckon we've have had about a week of dry nights. He drinks plenty during the day but nothing after 5.30/6. Big wee before bed, sleep usually 7.30/8 for about 12 hours (yes I know I'm lucky!) Its the early morning 5am wee that he just seems to be in such a deep sleep for that the signal doesn't get from brain to bladder. I'm not a great advocate of waking them to wee as I can't see how its effective.
Any tips? Should I be thinking about taking him to the docs yet? I can cope with it for the time being and won't go back to pull ups but the stripping of bed every day is getting tedious. He also has a tendency to wrap the quilt between his legs so that has to go in the wash too.
Incidently, even tho he drinks plenty of water during the day his wee has a really strong smell. Is this an indication of anything?
Thanks ladies
