My son is 9 years old, and has wet the bed for years. We had tried everything- limiting liquids after 6 pm, limiting dairy products after 4 pm, waking him up to use the bathroom during the night, wearing pull ups, not wearing pull ups and even a bed alarm. My son had had it! After consulting with a urologist, she suggested that we try a bed alarm, before giving him medication to decrease nighttime urination. I had tried an expensive bed alarm in the past, without success, so this time I did not want to spend a lot of money. I was happy to see the price tag on the DryBuddy EZ, however I was skeptical about its effectiveness. We started using the alarm in mid July. The first two weeks the alarm sounded once a night almost every night, and then after two weeks, my son would be dry for several nights at a time. This was a kid who never before could hold it for the whole night, so this was amazing. The urologist had recommended that we keep using the alarm until he was dry for 30 nights in a row. The last time he was wet was August 21. He continued to stay dry for well past 30 days, and I am pleased to say that he no longer wears the alarm nor does he wet the bed. I would definitely recommend the DryBuddy EZ, and my other advice is to be consistent!
