Wet-Stop 3 Green Bedwetting Enuresis Alarm with Loud Sound and Strong Vibration for Boys or Girls, Proven Solution for Bedwetters…

This definitely works! My daughter is 6.5 years old. We used this alarm for 60 days and she no longer needs pull ups at night. She sleeps in underwear and hasn't had any accidents. Before this alarm, she had to wear a pull up at night and it was wet 100% of the time. I felt she was being lazy, but his wasn't the case. She slept so hard, she didn't wake up. This alarm will take parental involvement. If you don't want to help your child, this alarm will NOT work for you. Your child can just turn off the alarm and go back to sleep; however, if you monitor your child this will NOT happen. My child had to sleep with me for a month or have a parent sleep in her room. The alarm would wake her up, and at first she would get up and go, but as time went on she would want to turn it off and go back to sleep. This only happened 1 time. It was the first night, we tried to let her sleep without supervision. Sleep by your child and make sure your child gets up for the alarm. Yes, it is inconvenient. Yes, it is a pain. YES, it will work and you will finally be done with diapers. Here is a synopsis of my experience: Once I started the alarm: Days 1 to 7: I put regular underwear on my child. Attached the alarm. Then put a pull up over the regular underwear to catch any accidents. Every single night the alarm went off 1 to 2 times per night. She wet part of the pull up and finished urinating in the toilet. So half on herself, half in toilet. Day 8: Dry night! No accidents. Didn't wake up to go. Day 9: Back to half in toilet, half on herself (but caught by the back up pull up). Day 10 -16: DRY all night Day 17: Silver Star (Half on self, half on toilet) Day 18-20: DRY Day 21: Slight accident Day: 22-23 Dry Day 24: Half on self, Half in toilet Day 25:27 DRY Day 28, 29: Alarm goes off and she gets up and goes in night (only a few drops in underwear) Day 30 to 60: She only had 2 nights the alarm went off. We stopped using the alarm on day 60 and she's been alarm free for two weeks with no accidents. WARNING: One night she woke up with the cord loosely around her neck. We had been taking the cord which is long and tying it with a bread tie and tucking it inside the pull up to avoid this, but she is such a wild sleeper somehow it still happened. That's when I got rid of the alarm, but she was already trained at that point. Also, the alarm is held on by a magnet, but it was often not attached to her shirt when she woke up. She rolls and moves a lot during her sleep.

I will start by saying that I agree with most pediatricians and parenting magazines that bedwetting is something you just have to wait for your kid to grow out of. However, our daughter just turned 5 recently, and she has never stayed dry at night, nor has she ever even attempted to stay dry (by getting up to go potty during the night). We bought Pull-Ups like they were going out of style. We thought we'd try having her just wear underwear at night for 4 or 5 nights to see if that would solve the problem - maybe the risk of having uncomfortable wet underwear/pajamas would make her get up when she needed to go. But all that did was increase our laundry load (considerably). I decided to give the Wet-Stop3 Bedwetting Alarm a shot, figuring if a beeping, vibrating alarm wouldn't do it, I'd go back to assuming my daughter would stop wetting the bed whenever her brain/bladder grew out of it. And now, after using the alarm for about two weeks, she has had 8 or 9 total nights of being completely dry! There are a couple of reasons I think this system works well: 1) The combined beeping and vibration continue until someone shuts off the alarm. Shutting it off is specifically designed to be a bit difficult to do (since you don't want the child just shutting the alarm off and going right back to sleep), so an adult needs to help. This ensures you can get the kid to the bathroom to finish going potty while you shut off the alarm/get new underwear and pajamas/change the sheets. 2) The alarm is annoying. It needs to be! If it was too gentle, it wouldn't startle my daughter awake, and she wouldn't immediately start calling for us to come shut it off. We were easily able to hear it on the baby monitor. 3) The alarm comes with a calendar the child can color (which my daughter loved). It also comes with a sheet of silver star stickers and gold star stickers (also very exciting). The gold stars are, of course, for the nights when they stay dry. But since that won't happen right off the bat (or else you wouldn't be buying the alarm), the SILVER stars are, in my view, more important. They are for the nights when the child only has one accident and manages to finish on the toilet (or however you want to gauge their relative success). I think this system of rewarding the effort, while not ideal in every situation, is of particular importance in potty-training. My daughter was happy to put the silver star stickers on her potty calendar when she wasn't having totally dry nights - and I was happy that she was actually finishing peeing in the toilet, even though she'd started to pee in bed. Then, upon getting her first GOLD star, she was ecstatic, of course (and so was I). I should note, though, that we did have a couple of minor problems with the alarm. When we first got it and I inserted the batteries, the light flashed on the side, as it was supposed to (according to the instructions). However, when I tested it with a wet washcloth, it wouldn't go off. I thought there might be a short in the cord or something, and was ready to contact the company. But after digging around on their Web site, I found a troubleshooting tip that said there might be residue on the sensor and that wiping the sensor off would correct the problem. Sure enough, after my husband scrubbed the sensor (pretty firmly) with the washcloth, it started working! The other issue is that we had several "false alarms" on a few nights - that is, the alarm would start going off, and our daughter hadn't had an accident. As far as I could tell, the problem might be that she was sweating a bit and the alarm sensed the moisture on her skin. My brilliant idea (if I do say so myself) was to take one square of toilet paper and put it between her skin and the sensor, clipping it in place with the sensor. That way, sweat wouldn't be enough to make the alarm go off, but if she peed, the toilet paper would immediately get soaked and the alarm would sound. We've done that every night since, and no more false alarms! Despite these two drawbacks, I'm giving this alarm system 5 stars, because both were easily remedied, and I figure for $45, you can't complain too much about minor inconveniences. I am so pleased at our daughter's success, and she is so proud that she's now wearing underwear instead of Pull-Ups at night. Looking forward to more gold-star nights!

I am updating this review, 4 months later. At first I thought this was going to be an effective product. My child is a very sound sleeper and I didn't think it would wake them up. For the first few weeks it did and we were slowly having good results. I purchased this alarm because the box says it alternates between 5 alarm sounds so the child doesn't get used to the sound... this is why we chose this one... however, it does NOT alternate between different tones... it is always the same alarm sound. I contacted the company myself, and they told me what they mean is for instance it goes beep, beep, beeeeep one time, and then next time it might go beep, beeeeep, beep. But it's the same beep sound. That is NOT what I expected and doesn't do anything for the problem that the child gets used to the sound. So now the child sleeps right through the alarm, urinating as if there were no device. I use a baby monitor to wake me up when it goes off and also took the advice of the company and put the light on in the room after child has fallen asleep. I did a lot of research before starting this and it all says the parent MUST be ready to help the child wake up, go to the bathroom and change, especially in the first 4 weeks... it's a commitment. Secondly, the sensor gives a lot of false alarms, but only when being worn... i.e. it will wake us all up in the middle of the night and there is no urine there, but it does not go off just randomly during the day when it's sitting on the nightstand... this led us to hypothesize that it is not a random false alarm, but rather extra sensitive to moisture, perhaps sensing moisture from sweat down there on certain nights... so my brilliant husband decided to clip the sensor to the OUTSIDE of the underwear, covering the sensor with a second pair of underwear or pullups to keep it in place. It still senses if/when there is urine, but rarely false alarms, which had really been a concern since it desensitizes the child when there is no need to go to the bathroom and/or no accident. It was also annoying! So I mention this in case anyone else has this trouble! I would also mention the cord seems REALLY long... we have a very tall for their age and the cord is still so long we need to tuck it into the underwear well or it gets caught on legs, etc. But it hasn't been a big deal... I mention this because I was concerned that it wouldn't be long enough for a very tall child and turns out just the opposite. Would I recommend this to a friend after 4 months of use? NO. In fact, last night we ordered a Malem for $120, but because it has actual different sounds for the alarms (that you can listen to on the website to confirm) and can alternate randomly or select the sound that works best, we have more hope that this process can work.

My seven year-old was wetting the bed every night, often multiple times per night. He'd never learned to control his bladder at night. I did my research and learned that bedwetting alarms were the safest and most effective way to treat the problem. I read the reviews on Amazon for different alarms and was strongly turned off by what appear to be corrupt reviews and comments designed to pump up some products and tear down others. These companies are not doing themselves any favors, as it prevented me from buying anything from anyone for many months. I finally decided to start with the Wet-Stop3, simply because it was cheap. I figured I could buy a more expensive model later if it didn't work. The inside of the device is cheaply made. One end of each battery presses directly against a solder contact on the edge of the circuit board, which is a cost-reduction technique I've never seen in an electronics device. The other end of each battery presses against a spring. For one battery, this is normal, as the negative (flat) side presses against the spring. For the other battery, it's unusual, as it's the positive (bump) side that presses against the spring. Again, this is another cost reduction technique I've never seen. The batteries are not snug and they buckle out a bit. The case keeps them from popping out entirely, but it doesn't press them all the way in. I was initially concerned the batteries wouldn't maintain good contact, but I never had a problem with this. The alarm unit (where the electronics are housed) is of decent quality on the outside. It has a nice soft rubber magnetic clasp that held it onto my son's t-shirt as he slept. My son normally didn't wear a shirt while he slept and I was concerned this would be an issue, but he adapated quickly. A wire connects to the unit using a modular telephone connector and runs down the inside of his shirt to a small clip that attaches to his underwear. One half of the clip is simply a circuit board with closely spaced copper traces. When his underwear gets wet, the liquid shorts out these traces and the alarm goes off. The first week or so, the alarm would go off as soon as he put it on. We eventually figured out that it was caused by my son washing his hands. His thumb was still a bit damp when he pinched the clip closed and it triggered the alarm. He learned to use the bottom of his t-shirt (like a mitten) to close the alarm. This usually worked, but he sometimes played with the clip afterwards, which would set it off again. The best solution was to just have him skip washing his hands before touching the alarm. The alarm alternates between a beep and a vibration. To turn off the unit, my son had to disconnect the clip, dry off the clip on his t-shirt and then hold the button on the alarm unit for a second or two. He never really mastered this while groggy from waking up during the night. He often just held the button, which did nothing because the clip was still attached and wet. At first, I was concerned about this, but in retrospect, I think it's better than him being able to turn off the device too easily and then falling back asleep. The alarm was loud enough to hear faintly anywhere in the house, but it wasn't always loud enough to immediately wake me. However, my son's first action when being awakened was always to walk straight toward my bedroom, so I was usually awake before he got there. My process was to have him disable the alarm himself, remove his wet underwear, use the toilet (usually there was nothing left), put on dry underwear, cover the wet spot in his bed with a waterproof pad (used for cribs) and then go back to sleep. This typically happened 1-3 times a night. We did this for three to four weeks and he only had two dry nights mixed in. Then, one morning, his bed was dry. And the next morning. And the next. It went on that way for two weeks. We've now removed the alarm. I've read that there's a high regression rate, but that immediate reintroduction of the alarm should quickly fix the problem. If your child is wetting the bed, I highly recommend trying a bedwetting alarm. I was happy with my decision to start with the Wet-Stop3. It's inexpensive, did the job and my son was comfortable using it and liked it.

First of all, let me say that I really like this product. My son is 11 years old. Never, not once was he dry, no matter what we did. The first night in this alarm and one other random night so far are the only nights he has had accidents. So like 2 accidents in 2 weeks after 11 years of being dry? WIN! You cannot begin to imagine how the relief flooded over me. I'm tired of buying pull-ups for an 11 year old kid. However- yes it works, BUT there are a lot of times, like when my son is putting it on by himself that it goes off and scares the heck out of everyone. He is already sensitive to noise, so then he gets paranoid to wear it. But we get it back on and it seems to be fine all night. It has never backfired while he has been sleeping -only when he was putting it on. So it may have either been on wrong or whatever because once my husband put it on him, it never false starts again. But because of this I'm taking away a star. We were set to return it fr it possibly being defective, but I think we figured out that you need to have the clip out on so that the plastic is on the inside of the underwear. Once we did that, it stopped false starting. The noise is loud, but not too loud that my sensory kid is terrified of it. It also vibrates. Overall, the value for the price can't be beat. Really you guys... I was at my wits end! 11 years of trying everything and then BAM.. 2 nights in this and we are dry. He stil wears the alarm. We tried one night without it after feeling falsely confident but I think the alarm keeps him in check. The night without went bad. Hopefully only a few more nights! UPDATE- Alarm, despite having changed batteries several times, no longer turns on. The unit is completely dead and I am sending it back. Works great... until it doesn't. Removing 1 star for that.

We were at wits' end. Our son is soon to turn 5 & had accidents every night. He remained in pullups / goodnights and even then we had to use bed protection pads because he went so much that it would leak. He would sleep right through it all. We tried taking away the goodnights & waking him up to go; only to find that he was almost impossible to wake. It wasn't working, so I finally decided to try this alarm. The 1st night, he jumped out of his skin when it went off, but gradually got better. However, a couple of times he woke up just before he pee'd and so that gave me hope. He was peeing 5x a night. After the 1st 10 days, my wife was ready to throw in the towel, but I pushed forward and noticed on the 3rd week that he was starting to wake up earlier and pee fewer times. That week he started to more consistently wake up before peeing, and would come get us for help going potty (he had trouble with the alarm being attached to his underwear at first). This became a habit that we will have to address next. He had one dry night that week, then regressed a bit. The next week, he had one dry night...then 2 in a row...then 3...and went 11 nights dry (waking up once a night on average to go potty--with our assistance) before having an accident and the alarm waking him. He had a couple of accident nights, then started a new run. He is currently at 15 days and in the last week has stayed dry the entire night (not waking once) twice. I have a theory that the device is not only doing Pavlovian conditioning to wake up when the bladder is full, but has a secondary effect to upregulate the hormones that reduce urine production at night. Because he is making much less urine at night now with no other changes to his routine. Some tips: - We use a thin boxer-brief style underwear...this seems to work best with the sensor clip. - We clip the sensor as close to where the urine will start as possible. - We use a lot of praise and encouragement, as well as milestone rewards. - We have used a goodnights over the regular underwear and sensor. This allows the sensor to still do its thing while protecting the bed if there is an accident. It also helps to keep your kid from knocking the clip off at night if they are active sleepers like ours. We are going to start trying without the goodnights, and then try without the alarm once we have a few more nights down solid. - Change the batteries after 2 weeks if the alarm has been going off. We had one night where it didn't go off about 2 weeks in & I think the batteries were getting week. - Talk to your child every night about what happens with the alarm if it goes off; and we have made sure to tell him "if you wake up at night, you need to get up and go to the potty." We remind him of this EVERY NIGHT. Even so, a couple of times I have seen him on the monitor camera sit up awake in bed and not get up. When that happens, I go tell him to get up and go potty--to reinforce the training. - Don't get upset if they have accidents. They can't help it. We explained that the purpose of the alarm was to help him stay dry. He became engaged as soon as he understood that and he *wanted* to stay dry. That is key, I think. - Use the reward chart (star stickers). It's simple, but kids really like to see their progress...especially if rewards are attached. - Most of all, DON'T GIVE UP!

This has worked WONDERFULLY for our 6 year old son. We knew these types of alarms worked, because we had used one on our daughter beforehand, and it was a success. But for her we used the fancy expensive wireless alarm. That was a waste, as it stopped working... (it worked just long enough to get her to learn to be dry through the night, but the intention was that we could use it for our next two kids, which was now ruined). So for our son, we decided to go with a wired alarm. The question was, which one? We were skeptical at first, did a ton of research, and ended up trying to decide between this one, and the more expensive Malem alarms. But in the end, so glad we went for this and saved the money over pricey Malem. It worked wonderfully for us. Our son is a very heavy sleeper... The first night, the alarm went off and did not wake him up, so he was soaked in the morning. (We were discouraged and worried that we wasted our money, but did not expect results right away). The second night, the alarm went off, it woke him up, but he was so groggy that he finished going in his bed instead of the toilet. So he was still soaked in the morning (as expected it would take some time). But the third night, the alarm went off, woke him up, he still finished going in his bed instead of toilet, but he got up himself and took care of this wet things and changed into dry all on his own. The fourth and fifth nights, the alarm went off and he managed to change underwear and then finish in the toilet. The sixth and seventh nights, the alarm didn't go off because his own body woke him up instead, and he used the toilet on his own!!! The eighth, ninth and tenth nights, he went completely dry the entire night, not even having to get up once due to the alarm nor his body waking him up. By the 11th night, we had him stop using the alarm altogether-- and it has now been about 6 weeks since then, and he has been dry every night! A true success!!! And again so glad we went with this one, and not the more overpriced Malem alarms. I'm sure the degree of success will be surely different from child to child, but in our case, we are quite thankful he was dry at night within about a week- and I've loved not having to buy any more night time pull-ups. Our son was ready for the alarm in that he was excited to use it and wanted to use it, so maybe that was a big part of its success. He was even overflowing the night pull-ups. We talked with him about it before we ordered it, and made sure it was something he was interested in. Again, very happy with this purchase and worked so well with our son who can now go to sleepovers without feeling like he "was still a baby." If your child is ready, I would definitely recommend. Another good tip - use the oversized reusable absorbent pads that they use for elderly people. Then when your child wets, all you need to throw in the washer/dryer is the pad, instead of the sheets and having to remake the entire bed each time. We got two pads for each child, so when one got dirty, there was a backup. We used the "Invacare Reusable Bedpads 34" x 52" Capacity Absorbs up to 1800cc", and that was a perfect size pad to cover a twin mattress.

UPDATE (Original review posted Jan. 30th, 2016; Now its July 8th, 2016) : I want to recommend that anyone looking at the Wet-Stop 3 consider other options. My wife and I wanted to use the product we bought earlier this year to help our 3 yr. old son fix his nighttime bedwetting (our 4 year old daugther was first user), BUT... we can no longer finagle the battery compartment with inserts to have the device work reliably. Plus, the alarm is for some reason now only 1/3rd as loud as it used to be. MY RECOMMENDATION: Try either the DryEasy (looks to be similar 'entry-level' build quality, at $30), as it promises a variety of alarm tones and volumes; or, try the Malem if you need to be sure the unit will be loud and robust enough (at $100). From what I can tell reading each of these product's scant negative reviews, neither one have a battery contact / inconsistent operation issue... MAYBE THE WET-STOP 4 WILL FIX THE FATAL BATTERY COMPARTMENT FLAW =( ORIGINAL REVIEW: I did a lot of research and was convinced that we could get the Wet-Stop3 to work for us and our daughter. I understood the science behind it, and there were enough detailed positive reviews for me to see that REAL PARENTS (not just social media marketers) have had success with it. Its been pretty good so far for our daughter (just turned four) and us, but I have to alert potential future (and former users, if they were unaware) to a fairly crippling design flaw. I deem it so because I believe that with so much at stake, there is not much excuse for any unreliability that is not explained or documented. Here is what's wrong: the battery housing sports an atypical design -- flexible contacts on only one side of the batteries, instead of both -- that lends itself to one or both of the inserted batteries losing contact with the metal connectors. This all depends on how the unit moves about (its orientation) -- a fact not promising at all for something that remains clipped to a toddler throughout their likely 'calming down / toying around before sleep' and potential 'tossing and turning during sleep' phases. Upon close examination, I discovered what seems to be causing the unit to turn off and back on again sporadically. Holding the unit to where you are looking at the back side and the battery door slides out/off to the right, two unwanted things can happen: the battery on the right can slip slightly to the right and lose contact, or the battery on the left can rock forward (ie, towards you) slightly and lose contact. Why does this happen, you ask? Well, for some reason I haven't been able to fathom, they put a flexible battery contact in on ONLY ONE SIDE (the bottom side), leaving the other side with a rigid, tiny face of metal that the battery can occasionally (=too often) wiggle free from. I know from experience, having returned my first one to Amazon, purchased brand new. I noticed after inserting the batteries that the 'batteries just inserted' red led light kept coming back on, after initially turning itself off. "Whats this all about?" I asked... after probing, I realized the batteries were disconnecting and reconnecting just from the unit shifting around. I got lucky on order round #2 -- Feeling simultaneously half bought-in and half cashed-out from the hype, I bought a second unit gently used off of eBay. It held its batteries firmly, at least at first (fortunately long enough for our daughter and us to build some confidence as well as some meaningful reward systems in with it). Now, a month in, it started giving the same issues... I'm currently trying to address it by inserting paper into the compartment, and it seems to be a working fix (at least, for now. I promise to update my review if it goes back to crapping out). Next you're likely asking, "Why did they (company, design engineers, etc) allow this to happen, when a simple fix (two tiny pieces of flexible metal) could keep hundreds if not thousands (or tens of thousands) of mommies or daddies from sending their product back?" Imagine the frustration when the unit once or more times fails to alert you and your child when a full-blown accident was imminent... I am guessing that many of the negative reviews I had read prior were from users who unfortunately had issues with intermittent battery contact. Anyways, I can't really answer that question... I would image that the cost for a flexible battery terminal on the upper part would be negligible. Adding to my confusion is the fact that I've never seen a gadget with a battery compartment design sporting anything other than flexible terminals on both sides. What I CAN recommend, if you are like me and maintain faith in the lower-cost solution that Wet-Stop represents, is to follow both my advice (given first) as well as that of another reviewer: #1 Insert a piece of folded paper into the battery compartment, to minimize the motion of both batteries. Shake and slap the device to make sure your fix worked. #2 put a diaper over the top of your toddler's underpants as you use the Wet-Stop 3 to help them learn to sense and control their bladder release. Even if the device does its job -- ie, the batteries maintain contact + the moisture sensor is in the right place to detect the first offense -- you'll still have instances where they won't wake up fast enough/fully enough to hold it all in. Much easier to change a diaper in the middle of the night, than to change all the sheets. Here's to hoping that PottyMD LLC eventually releases the Wet-Stop4, with this inexpensive design fix implemented. Until then, be wary as a user if you see the red light flashing multiple times after you insert the batteries. I don't know if the hassle is really worth upgrading to the unit's more expensive competitors (I admit I'm a cheapskate, but on top of that I also can't speak to the design of other enuresis products). At the very least, its a shame that a significant proportion of Wet-Stop 3 users will likely have to stuff a piece of paper (or foam, etc.) into the unit like I did to have it stay reliable.

Still using it! but I can sleep now:))

il mio bimbo si è subito affezionato al suo strano amico. dopo circa 30 giorni e una sola ricaduta ha voluto lui stesso abbandonarlo per provare senza. per ora nessuna ricaduta. semplice adatto ai bimbi anche in età prescolare.

I was very skeptical when i bought this. However, this product has turned put to be very effective. Would be happy to give 10 starts

I am really pleased with this alarm. My 5 year old was getting wet twice a night every night and I was despairing he would ever be dry at night. However he really took to the alarm and it is easy for him to use it himself. I set it to vibrate and beep as he is a deep sleeper but he woke up to it from night 1, if groggy and cross! I insisted he get up get cleaned and changed himself, as recommended, but we did use a pull up over his pants initially to save on laundry! The alarm is VERY sensitive and wakes him up as soon as the first drop comes out! By the second to third week he was stopping his wee with the alarm, and finishing it in the toilet, and by the end of the first month he was sleeping through the night most nights, and waking up dry. The star chart that comes with it is a great incentive. 2 months on we are still using the alarm (but no pull up) as he has not yet had 14 absolutely dry nights in a row. One improvement that could be made to this alarm is a light to show battery status. In the early days the batteries barely lasted a week, so we had to test them regularly. They seem to last longer now, but we still have to test them. I was also not happy with attaching the alarm to the pyjama neckline as recommended as the magnetic clip is not very secure and comes off easily. There is a risk of the wire getting wrapped around a child's neck if they toss and turn. There is a hole so you can attach it more securely with a safety pin, but then every time our child went to the toilet at night, the clip came off his underpants when he pulled them down. We tried different attachments and his preferred one is the waistband of his pyjama trousers, as he can do this easily himself. We have had a couple of false alarms in 2 months but it has been very reliable otherwise. I would highly recommend this alarm system and can only say I wish we had tried it sooner!

本当に止まりましたよ(笑)小２の娘が毎晩100％の確率でおねしょしていて、「夜尿症」と言われクスリを飲んでましたが治らず.....半信半疑でこれを試したら３日目位から２日に１度位になって１週間も過ぎた頃には無くなりました。今はもう外して２ヶ月経ちますがおねしょは０です。 初めは漏らす度にアラームで起こされてちょっとイライラしてましたが、成功した日は子供も自信がついていくのが分かり良かったと思ってます。
