Bed Wetting Alarms

Enuresis...what is it?
Enuresis, or bed wetting, is a problem as old as man. There are many cases, especially in children where there is no disease or abnormality causing the bedwetting, rather the enuretic simply does not wake up when his brain receives the normal message that the bladder is about to be voided. We know the signal is there because the child obeys it and eliminates normally while awake. The bedwetter is usually a "deep sleeper" and sleeps right through the subconscious signals, voids the bladder and faces wet pajamas, bedding and a new load of guilt. Allowed to continue unchecked, enuresis is known to plague many far into their teens...some even into adulthood.
Affects one out of six children
Enuresis affects 17% of our Nation's children at the age of five - one out of six. Treatment should begin at this age because chance of self-curing thereafter is decreasing. A number of studies indicate that 50% of the bedwetters at the age of five will continue to wet at the age of ten.

As parents, we are delighted to watch our children grow on a daily basis. They provide us with countless hours of entertainment and never fail to make us proud. However, along with this tremendous sense of fulfillment, we must also deal with the tough issues of parenting. In our case, the toughest issue is our child’s bedwetting problem.
Before we developed the PeeJ’s™ solution, we tried a number of bed wetting alarms that did not meet our wish to have our child achieve a sense of independence while tackling the bed wetting problem. For a few months, we took the “lazy” approach by putting our child in disposable pull-ups or night time underwear. During this time, our child always commented that he knew he had a “diaper on” and would not have to worry about “going potty” during the night. Even though we enjoyed uninterrupted sleep, we knew that disposable, diaper-like products were not the proper solution for bedwetting. Additionally, we were spending a lot of our hard-earned money on these expensive products and contributing to overtaxing our landfills by throwing these products in the garbage. In an effort to address the bedwetting in a more effective manner, we consulted with our pediatrician. This consultation proved invaluable. Like many other doctors who are involved with children’s issues, our pediatrician believes that a bedwetting child is capable of understanding the problem and is able to work at visiting the bathroom during the night. Furthermore, our pediatrician opposes products like pull-ups that do not promote independence. Instead, our pediatrician told us to remove the “security blanket” (stop using pull-ups!) and prepare for a long, frustrating process where our child would sleep with no protection. More...
