No more Peepee in the Bed.

I am so proud of Justice. For 2 nights in a row now he has not gone pee in his bed. This is a big deal. And, he is proud of himself too!
All of my kids, except Faith, have had problems peeing in their beds when they were younger. It is the last step in their potty training. Well, for a long while we used pull-ups to deal with issue. But, I swear that they just make the peeing worse. The kids can't feel that they are getting wet, so they don't wake up. And, over time they pee more and more in bed.
So, when Courage was about 3 I searched around for a better solution. I found out through my hours of internet research about this cool little thing.




It is a potty alarm.
You attatch it to your child's shirt and it also has an attachment that connects to their underwear. When your child wets their underwear, the alarm senses it and starts to sound and vibrate. That will wake up your child and you so you can help them go to the bathroom in the toilet. Because the underwear gets wet, they need to change it. But, the more times this happens, the easier they wake up and the less they pee in their bed.
Courage was the worst about going in his bed. He would go about 4 times a night. So, it took him about 2 months to finish going in his bed. Hope took about a month to stop going completely in her bed. And, Justice is the quickest yet. He use to go pee in his bed about 2 times a night. The first pee would always be at 1 or 2 am. The 2nd pee would be at 5 am. Then he dropped to 1 peeing in the bed at night, or I should say morning, at about 5 am. That lasted for about 3 days. And, now he is 2 nights in a row with no peeing in the bed. He is just 2 weeks into his potty alarm training.
He wakes up so happy and lets everyone in the house know he didn't "go" in his bed. We all make a big deal about it of course.
Anyway, I totally recommend it for kids of all ages.

they are pricy, but worth it. And, i used mine for 3 kids. So it paid for itself. Not to mention it saved on laundry, sleepless nights, and tears from sad kids.
