Flying

[Mummyworry80]

Hello my DD suffers from bed wetting and soemtimes soils a little in the night as well due to suffering from Constipation. I'm not worried about her doing this at night as I would rather it was coming out than not at all. She is 13 so it is very hard to force her to take medicine she refuses to take.. no matter how I dress it up in drinks etc.

We are going on holiday soon to Florida which involves a plane ride which includes an overnight sleep on the plane. She usually wears Drynites pants to bed for protection. But I am just wondering what others do when flying? Are pull ups on planes a good idea, I'm worried about her getting up in the morning and it being seen through her clothes or even her being able to dispose or change in the tiny loo. Also has anyone else had experinces with night time soiling along with bedwetting? she gets so embarrased bless her

Hello. It is always a difficult choice when flying due to the limited space. In our situation my DD waits untill we are off the plane and changes her pull up in the airport toilets. When you say your daughter " soils" is that just a mark in her pull up / panties or a full blown load ? This may have some bearing on being able to wait untill in the airport and if additional protection is needed over the pull up to control any odour whilst on board.

I talk from experience as I've an older child with constipation and soiling issues.

Hope this help and happy to further chat
