My child stays completely dry during the day but wets every night while sleeping. What method should I use for nighttime training?

Continued nighttime wetting while completely dry during the day shows that your child's nighttime bladder control hasn't matured yet. This is considered normal up to age 5-6, and most children eventually stay dry at night on their own.
You can follow these steps:
- Limit fluid intake 1-2 hours before bed, especially drinks that increase urination like tea and juice.
- Make sure he uses the bathroom right before sleep.
- Waking him up at night may work temporarily, but letting your child develop their own waking signals is more effective long-term. Waking him at night can actually delay his own control.
- Never punish, shame, or say "You're big now, you shouldn't be doing this." Wetting happens unconsciously.
If your child is over 6 years old and still wetting at night, wets frequently during the day or has sudden urgency, or used to be dry at night for 6 months and then started again, consult a pediatrician or pediatric urology specialist.
