Just after some advice please from those of you who have gone through this. I am starting to think about night-training my eldest daughter who is 3yrs3mths. She was easily day-trained about a year ago but every morning still wakes with a soaked night nappy, even if she has done a wee just before bed. I know part of it will be limiting how much she drinks after dinnertime but are there any other tricks? Is this the right age to start? Do you wake them and put them on the toilet through the night? I also have a 16mth daughter plus number three due in December so am thinking I want to have it done before that. I'd be grateful for any suggestions/comments. Thanks!

Do you wake her at 11pm or so before you go to bed to put her on the toilet?

I was told by a Dr here that lifting doesn't work and you should not limit water in this hot weather (one of my children is 7 and has enuresis). I must admit that I do try to encourage the kids to drink loads in the late afternoon so that they don't want to drink too much in the hour before bed.
The first time she has a couple of dry nappies in a row is the time to start working at it. My other child just suddenly started having dry nappies at about 3 yrs 7mths without any intervention from us. We have had one wet bed in a year. Wait for a sign from her.

We took our daughter out of bed everynight and put her on the toilet(just before we went to bed)...she would go every time and would wake up dry...she did not even remember in the morning that we did it.Was watching the super nanny show the other day and she suggested it for a family having the same problem and it worked for them too.

I kept my son in night-time nappies until he was 3 yrs 8 mths, then it dawned on me his nappies had been dry for over a month! So we removed the nappies, & so far no accidents & no fuss! So maybe wait a few more months and you're daughter will potty train herself?
