Guest guest Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Lori - we used the a potty alarm (Malem brand)for my DD (the urologist finally recommended one at age 9 - she(along w/ my other 2 kiddos have kidney reflux; 2 out of the 3 were/are bed wetters). The alarm worked great for her and I'm anticipating having to use it for my son (he's only 4 and also has apraxia). Anyway, I googled potty alarms and brought up the bedwetting store which has multiple alarms on their site and a comparison chart. Our urologist suggested another, but I liked this one; a bit pricey, but worth the $$$! Good luck. Bonnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Thanks! I just ordered one. My fingers are crossed that it will work. Matt is 9 right now and he WANTS to get through the night dry. Hopefully his motivation AND the alarm will do the trick!

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Lori, My DD has stopped using the alarm (yeah!) and is staying dry by herself. I think she really used it longer than needed, but if it was the reassurance she needed, so what - it worked!!! She was ready to be done w/ the good nite pull ups, now she can have sleep overs w/o being embarrassed. We're saving the alarm for my soon to be 5 yr old son who at this point is still a bed wetter, but the urologist isn't concerend at this point so... Good luck.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 We used the Malem brand w/ the multi/variable alarms (I didn't want her to get used to one sound, so you are able to change the tone each time). It has a reciever and the sensor attaches to the underwear by a magnet - may be bulky to some sensory kids, but she didn't seem to mind (the actual sensor attaches to the area of the underwear that gets wet). I went on bedwettingstore.com to buy it - you can compare several alarms there. > > > From: bault123 <kault@...> > Subject: [ ] Re: Matt - update - potty alarm > > Date: Friday, December 25, 2009, 3:57 PM > > > Â > > > > Lori, My DD has stopped using the alarm (yeah!) and is staying dry by herself.
