Hello. It's Linda here from Nightollie. Parents have often tried lifting the child from their sleep to try and do a late evening wee. While not wrong, it is not a sustainable solution. It can be difficult to wake the child. They can become grumpy, will not wee and certainly not remember any of it in the morning. As they grow, they become too awkward and too heavy for parents to control. And you do risk injuring yourself. While they are little this can help, of course, save a load of washing, and appear to help, but do not continue if it's clearly causing you more trouble than it's worth. Here's to your success!

It's Linda here from Nightollie. In my vast experience with parents, most do not want their child on medication. Any medication for bed wetting is only a band-aide. All pediatricians and health professionals recommend the bell and pad alarm system with added support to ensure correct use for a sustainable and safe solution. Here's to your success!

Hi. It's Linda from Nightollie. There is often debate and confusion around children wearing night pants to bed. Some say nappys, some say pull ups and some say diapers. Whatever we call them, children often reach an age when they associate these with being a baby. When the child is young, the overnight pads are helping children to have a comfortable night sleep. They may be assisting in reducing the laundry load and extra work that comes with remaking the beds. It can reach a point when the child refuses to wear them and/or the parents are just sick of the added expense. It's time. Time to treat bed wetting and rid the family of unnecessary conflict, shame and embarrassment. Bed wetting treatment is best around seven so if the younger child remains in a night pad and you are all happy, then wait until you see the change in their outlook. You know bed wetting help is here. Until then comfort, sleep and less work load for us all. Here is to your success!

Hi. It's Linda here from Nightollie. A common scenario is that the child is doing only a small amount of urine overnight. Maybe just into their underwear. This means that they are waking as they are weeing and not before. They may not do enough to activate the alarm. As frustrating as this is, it is usually a great sign that it is all beginning to gel. They can wake if required. A little late, yes, but they are turning a corner. This usually passes as the weeks progress. Here's to your success!

Hello. It's Linda from Nightollie. Children who wet their underwear during the day may suffer from what's called an overactive bladder. This differs greatly from the usual toilet training accidents. Having an overactive bladder causes a small amount of urine to leak into the children's underwear. Overactive bladder can cause enormous conflict. These children are often punished for not going to the bathroom, for being lazy, when in fact they have a medical problem that requires treatment. The children are often unaware of the damp underwear and parents will report that the odor is very distinct and a sure sign of the overactive bladder. If you are concerned about your child's wetting in the daytime, please see your health professional. This can be a long road for treatment and must take priority over the bed wetting. Once the day wetting is under control, treatment for bed wetting may begin. Here is to your success!

Hello. It's Linda from Nightollie. The Nightollie alarm is a fully rechargeable alarm. Charging is recommended around once a week for approximately three to four hours during the day. Please use the cables supplied. Here's to your success!

Hi. It's Linda from Nightollie. Five percent of all children will relapse and return to full-on bed wetting. They often start back every now and again and soon it certainly snowballs back into every night, back to where you were. Don't panic! They have been able to sustain this for awhile, but the inability to rouse from their sleep has returned. I recommend looking over a three week period for a few wet in that time, and certainly a refresher on the alarm and mat is required. This is usually a quicker process for you all. And then we have a certain amount who will require this again. It's not the end of the world but certainly worth having another go as it has worked for you in the past. Here's to your success!

Hi. It's Linda from Nightollie. When setting up the mat, ensure that the silver thread is facing up. The mat can go sideways or longways. You may choose to change this if you think you're child is not in the correct position and rolling off it. Ensure that the cords are tucked away safely as they can be a trip hazard in the night. Position the alarm away from the child, preferably near the door of their bedroom on a stable surface. Don't put it on the floor. Please make it easy for the child to walk to it and turn it off. Near the door may also assist the parents in hearing the alarm and therefore, being able to go down and help their child rouse from their sleep to turn it off. This can be very tricky for some children in the beginning. Here's to your success!

Hello. It's Linda from Nightollie. Children who snore while asleep may have sleep apnea. If you are concerned about your child's noisy snores, if you have observed short pauses in their breathing while they are asleep or very nasally voice speech, this may be a sign of sleep apnea. Please see your health professional. Bed wetting treatment will not work if the child is having trouble breathing overnight. And of course, this can lead to serious complications. I certainly hope this helps to ensure a successful outcome for your family. Here is to your success!

Hi. It's Linda from Nightollie. Teens who wet their bed at night come with a different set of challenges. Some show a complete indifference to the problem. In my vast experience with this, it proves that what we are actually seeing is a complete despondency to the problem. They are often feeling defeated. They have more often than not been dragged from one appointment to the other and tried different approaches that have never really worked. They may have been punished, blamed, accused of being lazy. They have missed out on camps and sleep overs with their friends, and often sleeping on very uncomfortable bedding as parents are so rightly reluctant to purchase new mattresses or bedding just to have it ruined again. They fear the humiliation of being found out by their peers and so often hide their true feelings. When it comes to yet another treatment, they may not be willing and may not be compliant, which in turn creates further conflict. Please be patient with them. Once they see the change, it will give them the confidence to continue. Here's to you success!

Hello. Linda from Nightollie. The expectations of the Nightollie Bed Wetting Solution is to have your child completely dry in six to eight weeks. The process usually looks somewhat like this: First week, not much changes as these children sleep so deeply and they are hard to rouse. In the second and third week, you should see change in the ability of the child to be able to wake when the alarm activates. You may be able to see they are trying to get up…they are sitting on the side of the bed or they are wandering around. You may still need to direct them to the bathroom. They will probably have no recollection of anything that has taken place overnight. You may also notice a reduction in the amount of urine in the bed – all good signs of progress so far. During this time, you may see small steps forward and some steps backwards. Remember, this is trying to change the way the child wakes up – very difficult for some. The third and fourth week, it is hoped that you have had many completely dry beds. Some get up to use the bathroom, others are sleeping through. Either way, this is great. The target of 21 dry nights in a row is to ensure the child can sustain the dry nights and give you all confidence this has gone away. Even on those nights you think, “Tonight will be the night. They are tired. They are sick.” and all those other excuses, we want the children to be able to cope with everything and still not wet the bed. If you have a little or no progress at all around the three and four month mark, give it a rest. You may choose to have the child back in night pads, or not. That's up to you as a family. If it's not going to plan, rest and try again in a couple of months. This may have been the wrong time for you. Here's to your success!

Hello. It's Linda from Nightollie. Timing is everything and that includes when to begin treating children's bed wetting. Only begin Nightollie if you have a week or two up your sleeve. Don't begin if you are, for example, moving house, going on a Holiday or having a newborn baby just around the corner. After the first week or two, things really should be settling down for you all. In this case, you often see the first week that not much changes with the children being able to wake up. The second and third week you are certainly seeing a small change in their response. This may be smaller patches of urine in the bed or when you do get down into the room to help them, you can see that something is beginning to tweak within their sleepy brain. I hope this helps and here's to your and your family's success!
