I don't think yelling and screaming is the
answer for the whole bed wetting.
How old are the kids?

i know what you mean i cant seem to get
that through her head.. they are9 8 6 5
4.. i dunno what to do about it... i mean
i cant really limit them to no drinking
before bed because they eat so early... i
dunno what to do.. i think that if their
mother were here it would help they have
no stability with her coming and going the
way she does...

Who is having the accidents?? I am just
wondering if they children are extremely
heavy sleepers. That is one possible cause
(from what I just read).
I wish I had advice but my child is four
years old and still wears a diaper at
bedtime. He is such a heavy sleeper and
literally wouldn't even wake up with a
really loud alarm by his ear. I know other
children his age who have been potty
trained at night for quite a while. I hope
someone on here has some advice for you.
I just looked up on DrGreene - Primary
nocturnal enuresis. There is some good
information but no advice. I would check
that out and perhaps you can have a
discussion with your mother in law. What
she is doing to the kids is very
determintal as you probably know. They
can't help it.

Geneva is 6 and occasionally wets the bed
at night if she has something to drink
after 7 pm. She goes to bed at 8:30 and
pees before bed. Sometimes she balks at
my request to go to the BR, but I just ask
her if she likes peeing in her bed and she
says no and goes to the bathroom. I keep
a special pad on her bed in case she does
wet the bed, so it wont make her matress
reek (I can't stand the smell of urine).
Also, if she does make a mess, she has to
be the one to clean it up, wash the
sheets, and help make her bed. I don't
know if this helps you, but there's my
advice (also, if they aren't your
children, maybe the one in charge of them
should care for them)

we have sleep pads on the beds but thats
not the problem the problem is them peeing
the bed not telling us and us not having
back up sheets for them... the other
problem is the fact that i live here and i
have to be the one that deals with it
because like i said in previouse posts, i
live with them and my mother in law and
she works 12 hours a day 7 days a week and
my husband works 12-15 hours per night 6-7
days a week... i just dont have the energy
to deal with it all right now.. we are
working on getting our own place but Avy
will be here before we get it...

That sounds really frustrating. I'm sorry
you have to deal with it.
