The DryRise program
For the first week or two, the alarm wakes you, and you get him up. After that, his brain starts to wake on its own.

Most of them come down to one worry: he sleeps too deeply for this to work.
Not at first, and it isn’t meant to. In the first week the alarm wakes you, and you get him up in that moment. After a week or two of that, he starts waking to it himself. Deep sleepers are who the two stages are for.
Expect a hard week or two. You get up when the alarm goes off, not on a schedule, and the whole thing takes about ten minutes. Then he starts taking over. It is a week or two of that, not years of waking him at 11 and 2.
It goes off at the moment it happens, every time. Getting up in that moment, night after night, is how his brain starts to link a full bladder with waking up. First he wakes to the alarm. Later he wakes before it, or sleeps through dry.
Yes. The sensor clips onto his underwear and the pull-up goes over the top, so the bed stays protected while he learns.
The alarm unit sounds and vibrates, and you set the volume. Use the quietest level that still wakes you, and sleep closer to his room for the first nights if you need to.
The guide starts with a daytime rehearsal at the lowest volume, and he is the one who sets it off. By the first night he already knows the sound. If it still bothers him, turn it down and go back to daytime practice.
Look at why you stopped. If it was because it didn’t wake him, you stopped inside stage one, the part where it is meant to wake you. If it was false alarms or a sound he hated, the guide covers both. If he did not want to wear it, start with the talk and the rehearsal.
It does not work for every child, and you will know early. The guide has a four-week check: if you see none of the three signs of progress by then, stop. That check falls inside the 60-day money-back guarantee, so you decide with the facts in front of you.
My 7 year old sleeps like a rock. The first few nights, I was the one getting up. I honestly thought we'd wasted our money. Then he started stirring when it went off instead of sleeping through the whole thing. We're sticking with it.
Easy enough to set up. I still have to go in and wake him, so we're not at the dry-every-night stage. Giving it more time.
Fewer sheets in the wash this week. That's a pretty big deal around here.
We practiced in the afternoon so he could hear the sound before bedtime. He wanted to be the one to set it off again 😂 Made the first night a lot less stressful.
I nearly skipped the PDF. Glad I didn't. My husband read it too, so now we're both doing the same thing when the alarm goes off.
I like DryRise. I do not like being awake at 2am lol. It feels like we're making progress, but the broken sleep is rough.
He's started reminding ME about his sensor at bedtime. Didn't expect that.
The guide helped, but I wish the charts came printed. Had to dig our printer out of the closet.
The first time he got up before I made it to his room, I just stood in the hallway smiling. Still having accidents, but that was new for us.
I was tired of trying a different bedtime trick every week. Having one plan to follow has been a relief.
He was unsure about the sound at first. We did a few practice runs and took it slowly. Better now, but I wouldn't skip that part.
We had a dry morning and he called me upstairs to show me. Such a small thing if you haven't been through this. Huge for him.
No wire running up his shirt. That was the main reason we picked this one.
We're getting some dry nights, some wet ones. I keep wanting it to be a straight line and it isn't. The night log helps me see the good nights too.
He used to say “sorry” before I'd even said anything. I like that the guide gives us something else to focus on besides whether the bed is wet.
Simple bedtime setup. We keep everything together so we're not hunting for the sensor half asleep.
The little chart is on his dresser. He's very serious about checking off the steps himself.
My son still sleeps through it some nights. I'm glad I read that I might need to help him wake up, because otherwise I would've assumed it wasn't doing anything.
He's started asking about staying at his cousin's again. We haven't done it yet. Just hearing him bring it up made me happy.
Four stars for now. Easy to use, but we're still early in this and I'm not ready to say the bedwetting is sorted.
We do the same steps, even on a wet night. It's taken some of the panic out of bedtime for both of us.
I was so over buying pull-ups. We're not ready to stop buying them yet, but a couple of dry mornings gave us something to feel good about.
Glad we can adjust the volume. Took a little trial and error to find a level that worked for us.
The part about praising him for getting up, even when he'd already had an accident, really clicked for me. He can't pick a dry night. He can do the steps.
Not the most exciting thing I've bought. Probably the thing we've talked about most at breakfast lately.
We'd tried waking him before we went to bed and still ended up with wet sheets. DryRise has given us a routine we can actually follow. It's work, but at least we're not guessing every night.
I should've started on a weekend. The first school mornings were tough with all of us tired. Happy with the setup, would just plan the start better.
Clips on, and bedtime doesn't turn into a whole production. Appreciate that.
It's helped us stay consistent. My husband and I take turns when the alarm goes off. I'd give five stars for the guide, four for the interrupted sleep.
He heard it and sat up before I got there last night. I know that's only one night. Still pretty proud of him.
