Transformative solution for us
My 9 year old son has always had a tiny bladder, since babyhood, and has had to wear night sleep pants to avoid multiple bedwettings per night. When his 7 year old brother gossiped to a friend about wearing “diapers” we decided to solve this once and for all. My pediatrician had loosely recommended bed alarms and practice with holding pee, but loose recommendations do not a structured program make. We needed a path to success.
Research on Amazon had such amazing endorsements that I paid the extra money and got Therapee. The videos from Dr. Sagee were really useful in telling ME as a parent what I needed to do to make this a success, as well as talking to my son directly. I was impressed by how my son responded to the videos. He trusted Dr. Sagee and believed in the encouraging reviews from other kids that are presented in the videos. He also really reacted to the rewards, which are stars on the tracking calendar. I again was very surprised by how effective this was.
It took about two weeks of waking up multiple times a night before we settled into just once or twice a week accidents. After a couple months, accidents became rare, but my son still had to get up in the middle of every night to urinate. He didn’t mind, but I wondered if he would have to do that his whole life. In the final month, he actually stopped even having to get up at night! So he went from bedwetting multiple times every night to not even getting up to urinate. In four months.
I just glanced at the negative reviews presented on Amazon, and I actually feel angry. This system was such a self-esteem saver for my son. Why are people whining about alarm sensitivity and trivial things like that? Learn it, go with it, and succeed! Not a big deal at ALL.
So, I wish you for you the same amazing progress, tracked over time, proving to your child that hard work really does pay off.
