Question

My 8 year old sons goodnite leaks every night; how can i stop it from leaking?

Answer 1

Has he been to the doctor?  At 8 years old, he should really be checked out if he's still needing the Goodnite at night.

Answer 2

Don't give him any fluids before bed time and make sure he goes to pee before bed.

Answer 3

i think at the age of 8 he shouldnt be on pullups, those are only used for training a child. he needs to be wearing fun underwear some really cool big boy boxers. and you need not let him drink any fluids and hour and a half before bedtime. then you must set your alarm for atleast every 2 hours and get him up to go to the restroom. do this for atleast 2 weeks or until you notice that he is going on his own and make sure there is night lights throughout the house so he wont be scared to walk around the house and believe me you are going to be tired but it is to show him that he can do it. and by wearing big boy underware he will gain some self confidence and feel good about himself and my motto is "DONT GIVE UP, STICK TO IT" and "ALWAYS PRAISE YOUR CHILD WHEN THEY HAVE DONE SOMETHING GOOD" that builds their self esteem as well. i hope this helps you, just tell yourself that he can do it and show him that he can and when you stop buying those pullups it will save you a bundle of money.

Answer 4

Maybe have him wear a regular pair of underwear under the

goodnites?  Or they have inserts that you can add to pullups

add one and see if that helps.

Answer 5

give him a bottle at nite that would really help him

Answer 6

You need to wake him up in the middle of the night and train him just like a puppy dog.  I think that you waking up with him will help him more knowing that he's not alone.

Good luck with your troubles!
