Bedwetting Alarm: How Much Does It Cost? When and Which Device Should You Use?

Estimated Reading Time:
 
Treating a child with a bedwetting device is the best solution for effectively and lastingly combating bedwetting. There's an almost 90% chance of a lasting cure. Behind these flattering figures lies a truth. Today, there are a multitude of manufacturers offering pee stops ranging in price from single to triple. A real headache for parents and their children... What is the best solution for your child and how can you choose the right pee stopper that will work for sure? At Store, it's very simple: we don't compromise on quality because our goal is the result. With the internet and the multitude of online stores, it is very easy to find ever cheaper products that promise equivalent results at discount prices. But the reality is quite different , because selling pee stops is a real job and requires know-how. Without a method adapted to the child and without a rigorous selection of the products offered, the results are often disappointing, especially for the child who, despite his efforts, does not obtain or obtains few of the expected results. A real disappointment for everyone! Our method for knowing when and how to use a pee stop. First, it is necessary to ask the right questions: simple but fundamental: 1- What type of bedwetting does my child have? All bedwetting can be treated perfectly with a pee-stop alarm, but for each type of bedwetting, there is a different way to treat it. It will be necessary to approach each type of bedwetting, whether primary or secondary, in different ways. 2- At what age should treatment begin? We believe there is no specific age to begin treatment. The important thing is to discuss it with your child and that treatment should be considered as soon as their enuresis becomes a practical and social problem for you. Also, some children will quickly become aware of it around the age of 5/6, while others will only request it around the age of 8/9 or older. The child must be willing. 3- He still has accidents during the day, can we start treatment? This is a recurring question and our answer is even more so: as long as a child still has these accidents during the day, it is useless or even a waste of time to start treatment at night. First and foremost, it will be necessary to correct small accidents during the day to finally focus on nighttime cleanliness. We have many solutions to offer you to achieve this. 4- He is wearing protection, should we remove them?: We recommend that you use them outside of treatment if your child pees so that he can sleep peacefully because sleep is an important stage in his development. The role of a pee stop is to teach the child to sense the moment when peeing becomes urgent and especially to learn to hold it. Wearing diapers during this period is therefore not recommended because your child will involuntarily make less effort. We also offer Pee Stops that allow you to use protections during treatment. However, it will be important to know that his treatment may be a little longer like a treatment without protections. 5- My child does not sleep alone in his room, will this wake the other child?: The principle of a pee stop is to make noise to wake him. If he is not alone in his room, it will be good to consider moving one of the occupants to another room of the house during the treatment. Some alarms work with vibrations alone, but we recommend this mode only when discretion is necessary and cannot be avoided (summer camp, at friends'). The faster the child wakes up, the faster his treatment. 6- Can we start now or should we wait for the school holidays? Treating a child does not cause fatigue and even less stress. Children will always be more relaxed sleeping dry rather than with the anxiety of waking up in a wet bed. Our experience of having treated several thousand children confirms that treatment with a pee stop does not tire the child and that it is not necessary to wait for the holidays to do it. In addition, it will be an additional motivation for the child to know that their next vacation can take place without episodes of bedwetting at friends' houses and at summer camp. 6- I have several children to treat, can we do it at the same time? We don't want to disappoint the second child, but start by treating the first child and then do the second one. We generally recommend starting with the oldest to avoid jealousy. The second will be even more motivated by the success of his or her brother or sister. For your information, if you are in this situation, we can offer you alarms that can be suitable for both without the need to buy other probes. I understand, but what type of pee stopper should I choose since there are so many and at different prices? We understand that it's easier to be an expert on your smartphone's performance than on the differences between all the pee stops. Let us guide you. We are the European leader in solutions for treating bedwetting and have selected only the best alarms for you. We know them all, and if they are not offered on the Store, is that they are not efficient enough and are generally outdated compared to newer systems. Pee stop devices have evolved enormously in recent years , and unfortunately, there are brands that continue to offer less reliable and, above all, much less efficient alarms, often for the same or even higher price. It is neither our intention nor our interest to offer them to you because they do not work or work very little. Just like smartphones, we appreciate the first iPhones, but it would not occur to us to sell you one. If the model you have chosen is not available on our site, we can discuss it together by telephone or email and explain the reason to you. Generally speaking, a pee stop is not a toy. Whether it has 36 ringtones, Wi-Fi, an innovative design, or the latest gold color, these are neither essential criteria nor features that we consider first when making our selection. We agree, these are pluses, but in no case should they make us forget the main objective: that of treating your child . It is with this in mind that we have voluntarily downgraded the entire range of alarms from a famous British manufacturer (Malem) which we now consider very expensive and outdated. How can we explain such a price difference in pee stops? Pee stops are categorized based on the type of catheter used. - Corded: These are preferable for daytime use (if toilet training is slower or if your child is older). These are generally less expensive devices but just as effective when used properly. - Wireless: These are undoubtedly the best-selling. Simple to use and effective in detection thanks to the type of probe used in the underwear. They are preferable if your child is younger. - Hybrids: which can be used during the day and at night with the possibility of using them with normal underwear or disposable probe inserts placed in the underwear to increase detection (up to 200 times) . We will have the pleasure of introducing you exclusively to this new revolutionary alarm in a future article. Remember the name: Apollo 24. We hope this information will help you choose and better understand Pee Stop. Keep in mind that not every child will have the same expectations and needs. While they wait for their decision and willingness to try Pee Stop treatment, there are many other solutions to help you in your daily life. With , bedwetting is not a problem!
