I have two boys aged 7 and a 10 year old who both still wet the bed every night.
My 10 year old wears the drynites and they are full every morning and frustratingly leak about 1-2 times a week. They seem to be the only pull ups out there in his age range so it looks like I am stuck with them however if anyone has any advice it would be welcome?
My 7 year old is still in nappies. We use the size 8 pampers baby dry and they actually still fit. Because of his age he wants to wear pull ups. I don't want to spend a lot on drynites so tried him in the xl pampers nappy pants which worked but he still sees them as 'nappies'.
What do others use for their children?

I've been trying them out on my granddaughter who is the same age as your oldest and I've been really impressed, before finding these I was having to buy her adult nappies online.
Drynites just aren't fit for purpose, there really expensive but leak all the time, Sophie wasn't sure about going back to nappies for at night but after trying them and waking up with dry sheets she didn't want to wear drynites anymore.
If your youngest son can still fit in pampers then you could perhaps try pullups night time, there around the same size as pampers pants.
We use Aldi Pullups. If we can't get these we use other supermarket pullups with an extra continence pad inside - sometimes works. Like you we get leaks too.
Thanks! How old is your child and do you think the Aldi pull ups hold as much as a nappy? I like the pampers nappy pants because they are basically their baby dry nappies but I worry other pull ups are more for small accidents and my 8 year old still fills the whole nappy.
He is 10 and never been continent night or day. They are not infallible and we do get up to change bed but worth a try - red packet - they do size 6 and 7 which would probably be OK - our son is small for his age so pretty skinny round the middle! Also look at pajama pants from the ERIC shop. They might be an option - washable and more grown up. Have not tried yet so can't tell you if they work, they are on my list to buy and test especially as school doing a residential in Dec. apparently.
