How to Use (No Pressure)

1

Check each morning

When your child wakes up, check if their diaper/pull-up is dry or wet.

2

Mark the tracker

Use a sticker, checkmark, or color to mark dry nights. Leave wet nights blank or use a different symbol.

3

Track for 30 days

A full month gives you a clear picture of your child's bladder maturity during sleep.

4

Look for streaks

7+ consecutive dry nights suggests readiness. Occasional wet nights are normal even after success.

Keep It Positive

Never shame your child for wet nights - nighttime dryness is biological, not behavioral. Their bladder needs to mature. Use this tracker to understand readiness, not to create pressure.

Signs of Nighttime Readiness

Ready Signs

  • Waking up dry most mornings (5+ per week)
  • Waking at night to use the bathroom
  • Asking to skip the nighttime diaper
  • Age 4+ (average age for nighttime dryness)

Not Ready Yet

  • Consistently wet every morning
  • Very heavy wet diapers
  • Not yet daytime trained
  • Under age 3 (usually too early)

Note: Nighttime dryness often comes 6 months to 2+ years after daytime training. It's not something you "train" - you wait for biological readiness. The tracker helps you know when that readiness arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many dry nights count as progress?

Look for patterns, not perfection. 5-7 consecutive dry nights suggests readiness to try without a nighttime diaper. Some children are ready with 4-5 dry nights per week. Occasional wet nights after success are completely normal.

Should we do nighttime training right away?

No - focus on daytime training first. Nighttime dryness is controlled by different biological processes (hormone production, bladder size) that develop later. Most experts recommend waiting until your child shows consistent dry mornings before removing the nighttime diaper.

What if my child feels stressed?

Stop immediately if your child becomes anxious about nighttime. This should be observation, not training. If they feel pressure, put the tracker away and try again in a few months. Nighttime dryness will come when their body is ready.
