    • Trying out the new Kiddo Ultra Dry tonight.    
    • Yes.  I developed bedwetting over time.  It took several months before I first knew it had happened but it remained rare for years. Now it’s not so rare but still not every night.  It’s enough nights thought that I MUST wear a nappy to bed and I’m going to use that nappy anyway. I think it’s about 20% physiological and 80% mental. Long term permanent nappy use meant that I developed urinary urgency and frequency.  This made it impossible for me to sleep through the night without peeing: at first.  This was physiological.  It got to the point where I’d need to pee 2 – 3 times every night. The mental bit was about becoming accustomed to reflexively doing this in my nappy. You have to kind of NOT think about it.  This means you either have to trust a bullet-proof nappy or be ok with a wet bed.  It also means that you have to be comfortable wet because you’re going to be wet for much of the night.  I got into a “wake/wet/sleep” cycle and just let that run on without thinking too much about it.  My experience is that if I concentrate on wetting the bed it doesn’t happen.  Google “ironic process”. Eventually, I started to notice “pee dreams” and then, morning nappies that were wetter than I could recall making them. Then one night I went to bed dry and woke up wet the next morning (I was a bit drunk).  I hadn’t done that since I was 3. It gradually became more common but ironically, I kind of lost sight of it.  It just happens when it happens now.  Typically I’ll realise when by morning I’ve no recollection of peeing through the night and yet I’m wet. Last night I woke up mid-pee.  There’s no sense of panic anymore doing this.  I just become aware that I was getting wetter down there.  I remembered I was in a thick cloth nappy and I fell back asleep.  I can’t remember finishing that pee.  It’s possible I went back to sleep still peeing. I firmly believe that at some level of consciousness I "decide" to pee in bed.  It's just not up in the wakefulness zone because I'm perfectly used to wetting my bed, it's comfortable and it's ok so I may not rouse.
    • I turn it around after 3-4 wettings and can get 2-3 more before I start to worry.
