GoodNites + Giveaway

I have 3 boys and I can tell you that staying dry throughout the night can be a challenge.  It’s a long, repetitive process.  Sometimes, you’ll find that your child does well going to the potty during the day, but bedwetting happens during the night.  This is where GoodNites® Products come into play!  I can tell you that personally, there have been many nights where my 3 year old has woken up with wet pajamas and wet sheets because his training pants just didn’t hold it all in while he was sleeping.  Thank goodness there is a product that can help!

Why use GoodNites® Products?  GoodNites® Products are more absorbent than the leading training pants, to help keep pajamas and sheets dry all night.  Dry nights mean parents and kids can enjoy an easy night’s sleep and wake up with confidence.  GoodNites® Underwear are made to look, feel and sound like real underwear, so kids ages 4 and up will feel good wearing them – plus, they’re specially made to protect kids while lying down.

You can visit GoodNites.com to receive valuable advice and submit a question for the NiteLite™ Panel – a group of pediatricians and parenting experts – that’ll share support for growing kids.

If you’d like to learn more about GoodNites® Products, be sure to participate in the #gno Twitter party on Tuesday, August 2nd from 9-11 p.m. ET.  We’ll be chatting about the post-toddler years and not only will you learn helpful tips, you can share some of your personal tips and experiences as well.  For more information about the party, please be sure to visit the RSVP post.

  1. I learned that According to the National Kidney Foundation, bedwetting affects approximately seven million children in the United States alone. The condition is more common in boys than in girls and tends to occur more frequently in first-born children than in younger siblings. This is so interesting.
    Thanks so much.

  2. I learned bedwetting is genetic. Dr. Carolyn Thiedke, professor of family medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina, says “children who have one parent who wet the bed have a 43 percent chance of wetting the bed, and if both parents wet the bed, the chance climbs to 77 percent.”

  3. I learned some really useful tips on the GoodNites site, especially how you can ease children’s anxiety at bedtime by maintaining a ritual, buying bedding and decor with their favorite TV, movie, or book characters, or either singing the same song or reading the same book regularly. Great advice to go with a great product. Thanks!

  9. learned: Toileting issues can be a challenge for autistic children and their families. Both potty training and staying dry at night often happen later than in non-autistic children. Even though the timetable might be hard to accept, your child needs the same things from you including loving guidance, support, and patience.

  10. I learned that the technical term for bedwetting is enuresis and that the only cure is patience and time.
