With the increasing choice of larger, higher capacity youth pull-ups, is there any point in trying to prevent overnight accidents?

I noticed that these alarms are so widely advertised now, and the drugs are obviously a less popular last resort, so does this explain the current prevalence of disposable overnight underwear?

Should I add these chatbot suggested alternatives?
  1. Bladder training: Bladder training involves teaching the child to gradually increase the amount of time between bathroom trips.
  2. Positive reinforcement: Praising the child for dry nights and rewarding them for progress can be an effective motivator.
  3. Counseling: In some cases, bedwetting can be caused by emotional or psychological factors. .

Resulting from the vast causalities anyone of your original and/or your added list are in an of themselves are a means to limiting /ending Bedwetting. Although all are possible realities, none of them can assure halting Bedwetting in a large segment of the population. The reason that diapers are such a common Plan 'B' is that when selected and placed properly, they provide a high-level of limiting Wetting of the Bed.

Amount the long list of causes, at or near the top is a line items: Unknown Cause. It is surprising just how large that group is and it is the fastest growing group, either as a result of Insurance limiting payment or that a number of tests have been deemed unreliable. Without an understanding of the why, attempting to apply a cure becomes very difficult.

The medical industry has increased the practice of using multiple combinations of medications, combined with physical reinforcement tools as possible fixes, which means an increasing number of side-effects.

As bedwetting amount older children and teens increases it only makes sense that larger, higher capacity youth diapers become even more common. Whatever is driving this could possible be tied to lifestyle, diet, viral and/or other changes to DNA or a number of environmental influences on all of the above. At present, there is no defined or identified causality.

It's true, teen bedwetting may be increasing due to changes in lifestyle or environmental factors. For example, some experts have suggested that increased stress levels, changes in diet or sleep patterns, and exposure to environmental toxins may contribute to bedwetting as well as medical conditions like urinary tract infections, diabetes, and sleep apnea, as well as psychological factors, such as anxiety and emotional stress.

Currently wetting the bed (diaper) most nights I can’t imagine wanting to stop. But be that the case I’d start by using a sensor/alarm, limiting fluids and not wearing. If that failed I’d seek professional help starting with my urologist.

Bottom line, if so motivated I’m convinced I could be dry again.

Just going to keep wearing my diapers 24/7, it's never going to stop. Same with bladder incontinence that effects me daytime in general.

I don't have any desire to stop wetting my diapers at night. I did stop for many years but by the time I finally stopped wetting my bed when I was 17, I had developed a powerful desire to wear diapers and rubber pants, to wet and play with myself when in diapers. For many years I only wore diapers occasionally, but when I did, I liked to wet myself when I was in bed and wake up in the mornings in wet diapers. When I finally decided to wear diapers full time, including to bed, I first started wetting intentionally when I woke up needing to pee, but in time, I started wetting my diapers while asleep. Now I have no interest in relearning potty training.

When I was younger I tried all sorts of things. Alarms I would disable in my sleep. Medication. Tried not drinking liquids, tried everything. Some of the things worked, but they were not sustainable on a long term basis. I finally gave up and figured that it would either stop on its own or it wouldn't. Eventually it did except for occasional accidents in college mostly fueled by alcohol and (I thought at the time) explainable because of that. Turned out that it was just right below the surface and it started coming back more regularly.

Even as an adult I tried some of those methods including alarms and again, medication. A lot of it was because of my ex husband who was a doctor and trying to "fix" a problem that turns out isn't fixable. Nothing worked, and everything I tried negatively affected my sleep or had other side effects. I slept very well when I had wet nights. I was more relaxed, and I didn't really care to be dry at night if it wasn't going to be like 99% effective and without other implications. If I could stop it 99% of the time without any side effects, great. Since I can't, I'm fine. Bonus not having to get out of bed if I wake up and need to go. I go in the diaper and I go back to sleep immediately.
