Every single morning when I get Joshua out of bed he is wet. His pj's, his blankets, his mattress. Everything. And what is causing this wetness is the fact that he likes to hang on to his willy while he is asleep, and so when he pees in his sleep it goes upwards instead of downwards and ends up all over him.
I have no idea how to combat this. I go in at least 3 times in the night and remove his hand from his nappy. But then, an hour later or whatever when I go back in, there it is, back down in his nappy! I'm getting so sick of having to change his bed every day, and although we have a few waterproof mattress protectors it won't be long til the mattress is all manky and yuck. Any ideas of how I can stop this. I've tried doing the nappy up extra tight, talking to him about not doing it but still, every morning.... WET! |

How about getting him an all in one sleep suit that zips up to the neck. We bought Michaela's from farmers for about $15-20.
Failing that a straight jacket or toy dildo might work  -------------

OMG can you imagine if doting Grandma or similar went in to see him while he slept and there he was cuddling his dildo! ROFLMAO!
AIO or even the crotch buttoning suits work to keep Benjy's hands out of his nappies. Good luck! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

ditto we use a domed singlet at night for rhyley - it would stop Josh - also it would keep him warmer as PJ's can expose their bellys and backs some times.
I do find that rhyley is pretty socked in the morning - His nappy is so full. I think its cause they are getting bigger and weeing more??!! ------------- Ann

He's not TT yet. We've not really started apart from him sitting on the potty before bath time.
Thanks for all your suggestions. I got a domed singlet yesterday, so we'll try him with that tonight. Wish me luck! |

I was also going to suggest the all in one pjs, but put them on back to front so he cant get to the zip either... ------------- Mummy to two beauties... Formerly Kaiz. |

I have the exact same problem. I am now awaiting on some knitted over naps Emma has ordered that may do the trick. Good luck with what you try ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| LMAO aww Joshie that is the funniest cuddly I've heard of. I hope it works for you, thankfully Jack hasn't figured out how to get his when he has a nappy on. |

SUCCESS!!
And the winner on the night was the button under singlet - woop woop! Although, he took two hours to get to sleep - obviously hanging on to his bits makes him go to sleep faster
