My DD has for over a year gone to bed at 7.30 pm and woken up between 8.15 and 9am. Doesn't matter what's going on, that's what she does. Over the past couple of weeks she has been waking up anywhere from 6am to 7.30 am and she is absolutely soaked through. She has occasionally been wet in the past but the most it has been is dampness on her pj bottoms. This is full on wetness with her nappy, pjs and bedding really wet. The poor little thing is very distressed by it.
Does anyone know what's going on? Do toddlers suddenly grow a much bigger bladder literally overnight? The earlier mornings are a nuisance but I hate to see her so upset. Should I start waking her up during the night to change her nappy or maybe go in around 6am and change her nappy then? I just don't know what to do and nobody I know has had this problem.
Is she having a big drink just before bed - can you give her her drink earlier in the hope some of it comes out before she goes to bed and then put a clean nappy on straight before bed... not sure what nappies you are using, I find I need to go to the next size up for over night....
Sorry - should have said. She has a bottle, story, nappy change then bed. I've got her in huggies overnight and she's already in the size range that she only just creeps into the bottom of - 10 to 15 kgs or whatever it is and she is barely 10kgs.
Bloody huggies LOL Im on a huggies rant this morning.. dd NEVER wets through her nappies, and she's in the woolies brand... got to the bottom of the nappy barrell last night and put her a huggies... guess who was up at 4am this morning changing a soaked through baby and cot sheets..
Hhhmmm I dunno Lulu - my first thought was to change nappy size but obviously that won't work. Have you tried other types of nappies? We use Aldi overnight and never had a leak. The early morning nappy change might have to be the go hun but will she go back to sleep afterwards? I know my DD wouldn't lol! Good luck!
DD waking up soaked through - what's going on??
