Bed time wetting

I’m not incontinent or didn’t think I am but I wear nappies every night to bed. I go to bed dry but every morning I wake up wet. Why is this. Has this happened to anyone else.

From uk :flag_gb:

It’s called brain association and conditioning your brain knows your wearing a nappy and is okay with using it for its intended purposes. It’s learnt behaviour and for some it takes years while others pick it up quickly but if your mentally okay with wetting in your sleep your lucky. I’ve been wearing a long time but still if I go to bed dry I wake up dry :disappointed:

i guess I’m lucky being wet every morning

Does this mean as I wet my nappy every night when I’m asleep would I probably wet the bed if I didn’t wear a nappy to bed

Wow i just made a post asking the same question as i wore a diaper last night and woke up wetting myself. Going to try again to see if this is just my brain oking the wetting due to the diaper

Myself and the “2 year old” would both wet the bed without diapers .

From what has been posted in these forums over the years, ( if you are not incontinent ) it’s possible to train your brain to only wake up enough to relax the inner sphincter muscle and than go back to sleep.

Based on my age I usually cannot sleep through the night without having to get up. So I always wake up having to go and just wet my diaper ahen go back to sleep. I actually enjoy the feeling of wetting my diaper.

i would be concerned if I wet and didn’t know it for fear of it happenning if I wasn’t wearing a diaper.

a few weeks ago I was waking up dry some mornings and wet others. The last 2 weeks Iv been wet every morning

I would say based on this that it’s unlikely you’d wet the bed without a diaper but it’s a 50/50 chance either you’ve trained your brain to wet you when wearing which is physiological conditioning or you’ve trained your muscles to relax when sleeping.

have you ever been a bed wetter??

only the odd time as a kid but not as an adult

This is a topic that comes up quite often.

I always wake up wet if I’m wearing an L4 or a Formacare X3 but not if it’s an unfamiliar nappy.

I think my brain has trained itself to allow an unconscious wetting (or waking such that I don’t remember doing it) when wearing a reliable nappy.
