How to wear diapers discreetly?

 
Bedwetting children are just like any other children, but the only difference is that many of them need to wear protection at night. Bedwetting diapers are very common products, but many children and families still struggle to accept their use in everyday life. Yet, they are very effective and increasingly discreet products. , explains tips to make this obligation more comfortable for your child. The use of protections has become very common About 80% of children suffering from bedwetting wear age-appropriate protection. Wearing diapers when wetting the bed is necessary if you want to be able to sleep and wake up in a dry bed. This is by no means an easy thing to do or something the child wants. Today, although products have evolved enormously, they are still visible and must be put on and taken off every day. For many children, wearing protection is still difficult because they are afraid of being discovered or being mistaken for a baby. We are therefore going to give you tips to help them manage their daily lives with serenity: TIP: What to say to a child who refuses to wear a diaper? Do you know where the name diaper for babies comes from? That's because as parents , when changing a baby, we lay them down on the changing table . The baby can't do anything on their own. On the other hand, you can manage without our help. You can put on your underwear or your protection on your own without asking us. You don't need us to put you to bed. In the morning, it's the same. When you get up, you can take it off on your own and throw it in the trash without our help. So you see, just because you wet the bed doesn't mean you're a baby. The package is in your room, it's up to you to manage on your own. At home : Home is the place where children most easily accept diapers, but certain rules must nevertheless be respected: Place the pads in a personal location where the child can access them without the help of a family member. This location can be closed if necessary when friends come to visit. Install a small trash can in the bathroom so he can put his pads in the morning in peace. Have a box of wipes available to wash yourself if necessary. Establish a secret code with your child when it comes to buying protection and avoid buying them in their presence. Many parents today order online because, more importantly, the selection offers better quality products and more attractive prices. At home, establish a rule of confidentiality with other siblings. Some families hide it and others discuss it freely with other siblings. From experience, everything is known, so it seems more logical to talk about it and explain why one of the children continues to wear protection . Emphasize the principle that it is not on purpose and that it is important to help him. Let the other children in on the secret by explaining that it is not to be told to others. Although absorbent pants are easier to put on, we recommend full diapers because they are more absorbent and less expensive. A bedwetting child does not like to talk about his little problem, let him manage his bedwetting on his own but check from time to time that everything is done properly. If you need to talk about it with your child, do it alone and preferably in the evening before they go to sleep. Children are calmer and will have all night to think about it quietly. In boarding school or on a green school trip: Living outside the home is already a challenge for a child. Opening up to the outside world can sometimes be stressful. Having to wear protection is a step that will add even more anxiety to your child. Some even refuse these opportunities out of fear. However, there are solutions that should be explained to the child. If your child sleeps in a sleeping bag, simply slip a sleeping pad into the bottom. Once inside, your child will simply have to put it on quietly. We recommend using absorbent pants for these times, which will be easier to put on. In the morning, your child will simply have to remove the sleeping pad and leave it inside. Bring small plastic bags. If your child sleeps in a single room, you should proceed in the same way as at home. If your child sleeps in shared rooms, find out if the center or school has the possibility of making rooms for children with this same problem. If the school has an infirmary, it is also possible to leave protection so that he can go and change in peace. During long journeys: Traveling by car, train, or plane often requires sleeping. During these journeys, we recommend using absorbent underwear, which will be easier to put on on your own. On planes and trains, there are fewer places to change clothes, and children will often have to do it alone. Bring a small travel bag with everything they need (absorbent underwear, wipes, spare underwear). When driving, use motorway service areas so that he can change in peace. At friends': Sleeping over at a friend's house is an important developmental milestone for your child. It's a shame to have to give it up because of bedwetting. We recommend that you discuss this with your boyfriend's mother if possible, and ask her not to talk about it. Your child should always have the choice of whether or not to talk to their boyfriend. It's important that your child has no doubt about whether or not their boyfriend knows. Place a sleeping bag inside his bag with a protective cover. He'll just have to put it on once he's inside and take it off before getting up. Always give him a small box of wipes so he can wash up quickly. In the family: Sleeping at grandparents', uncle's or aunt's house is part of the holidays that every child should be able to approach without fear. Ask family members not to change their routines and not to discuss them with your child. That's not their role. If you know of any family members who have experienced this issue, explain it to your child and offer to talk to them about it. It is often very beneficial for a loved uncle, grandpa, or aunt to share their personal experience with them. As a general rule, Bedwetting isn't a big deal. It's important to take action and avoid making it a major concern. Treat bedwetting as a necessary part of your development without focusing on it. Establish a circle of trust with your child. Only talk to people the child has agreed to talk to. Let him manage his bedwetting as much as possible. This is also a way to make him more responsible and independent. Never start a conversation about bedwetting in front of other people unless your child gives you permission.
