Bedwetting can be an embarrassing and traumatic experience for both parent and child yet it is almost as common as asthma in young children. Around 20% of four year-olds and 10% of eight year olds wet the bed at least twice a week, yet despite it being such a common occurrence, bedwetting is still considered taboo.
Many parents resort to using plastic sheets or simply washing the bedclothes after an episode but waking up wet is never pleasant and can weigh heavy on a child's confidence and self-esteem.
To help ease the anxiety caused by bedwetting, Huggies have introduced the DryNites® Sleep Shorts. These look real sleepwear but short-like outer cover conceals a highly absorbent inner layer, held in place with soft elastic. The range also includes the DryNites® Pyjama Pants, which can be worn underneath the pyjamas like underwear.
The Drynites® Sleep Shorts are priced from £4.95 and are available in two sizes - aged 4-7 and 8-12 years.
