If you think that "wearing DryNites will only make my child lazy" - read on.
You want to support your child as best as you can and it's natural that every so often you question whether what you're doing is right.
It's a natural question to ask.
However, there's actually no evidence to that effect whether it is or not.
We've sponsored a clinical trial to get an answer to this question. It's in field now and once we have results, they will be published.
Experts from the National Kidney Foundation agree. "Using absorbent products at night to protect the bed will often reduce the frustration level of a parent and/or child waking to wet sheets," they say. And although many parents believe using these products may prolong nighttime wetting, Dr. Docimo reassures that "there is no evidence that it takes longer to grow out of bedwetting if a child wears absorbent pants."
Nighttime wetting is a common problem that takes time to be resolved. But the good news is that 15% of nighttime wetting children outgrow the condition every year. Using absorbent products such as Goodnites® NightTime Underwear and Goodnites Bed Mats can help ease your child's discomfort so they can wake up each day dry and worry-free.
