Good luck. You are not alone. TheraPee works!
I have twin girls, one of whom took to potty training immediately and the other who did not. The one who did not would often cry asking “Why am I different?” Adding insult to injury, a school friend came over and found my daughter’s night times and proceeded to tell the other kids at school. Well, that unfortunate incident led my child to get motivated, and finally ask for help. Now, this is not for lack of trying on our own, but after night after night of accidents we would all give up. So I started researching and found TheraPee. Within a month, my daughter was fully potty trained, and we are all grateful.
The best part of Therapee, in my opinion, is the online counseling. Essentially, you start with your child by watching videos online of Dr. Sagie, who speaks to both you and your child. These videos are so encouraging and amazing. While you, as a parent, have done your research to know that your child is not alone, your child feels very alone. Immediately your child will smile at the words of Dr. Sagie – knowing that they have nothing to feel shameful about and that many kids go through what they are going through. And then Dr. Sagie provides exercises for your child to do… Personally, my daughter couldn’t wait to start trying. And then every morning there is an online calendar to fill out with your evening’s progress. Accidents or not, my daughter couldn’t wait to get started earning calendar stars. And then every two weeks, Dr. Sagie would come back via video and talk to your child based on your calendar input. Again, he was so encouraging… letting my child know this is a process.
Right away we used the alarm system for the bed. It was helpful and while my daughter wouldn’t immediately wake up to the alarm, we would get her up to try going to the bathroom anyway. Within a few weeks we no longer needed the alarm or the system.
It’s not often that a parent will share their bed wetting frustrations, but when they do, I recommend TheraPee.
