Customer Reviews of Malem Ultimate Selectable Bedwetting Alarm with Vibration - Magenta
Customer Review: We used this alarm for our four year old son.
Summary: 5 Stars
My two year old was dry over night by the time she was a couple of months old.
The older one, however, was almost four - and he was still wet at night, even when we'd wake him at 11 pm, cut off his liquids, 2 before sleep bathroom breaks, etc... I figured his wiring must be a bit off - especially since it is possible to stay dry at night before a year.
I went online and researched everything out there. I research for a living, so I feel pretty confident about what I find. And I found the nurse practitioner's site on bed wetting. I ordered this alarm and the book from Amazon and we did the program for one week.
**Keep in mind that many experts recommend starting this program at age 6. My boy was almost four, so that was on the really young side.**
We did the alarm for a week. It scared the BEJEEEEZUS out of him the first couple of nights. Nights 3-7 he would just come to my room, flashing, vibrating and beeping and stand next to me until I woke up. Very calmly, I would turn off the alarm and we would go to the bathroom.
At this point I didn't quite get him to just go straight to the bathroom - he was too young to figure the shut off sequence - and it is pretty tough in the middle of the night to negotiate the very loud, vibrating, flashing thing's off sequence - it is a two step process. So he came to me first - and then we would both go to the bathroom and get the alarm reset, take care of business, get him changed and put the alarm back on.
By night three - he was only one drop wet - the alarm had put an immediate end to the soaking wet drawers in the middle of the night.
At night number 7, he had HAD it with this program. He hated the alarm, wouldn't wear it and was very upset about the whole deal. Since he was really young, I caved. "Fine, we'll try again in a couple of years," I thought.
I had a case of pull-ups left from the last baby and just pulled them on him for nighttime. He didn't like THAT, either - but with working full time, I was wearing a little thin with the extra loads of bed linens on a daily basis!
I put the alarm away, thinking, "there goes $100..." and sighed.
Four days later - he had a dry diaper. THIS had never happened before. I thought it might be a fluke, but c'mmon - I WAS VERY EXCITED. The next few nights, wet again. And then, at the end of the second week - night after night - he was DRY! The third week after the alarm - he was dry five nights, one wet - and then has been dry ever since.
At this point, the pull-ups go back away. And he gets his batman briefs back!
AND - his self esteem and happiness with this outcome, have soared.
I am going to attribute his nighttime success to the one week we used the alarm. Since he was much younger than recommended, perhaps it only took this short amount of time to get his brain wired properly - and then a couple of weeks for the new neural pathways to form.
I do know that it worked because he got to associate the feelings of full bladder with waking up. And that's what you are spending the $$ for at the end of the day - that re-wiring session.
The device is brilliant, and it is brutal. People at work had told me about their children FINALLY getting over this problem at 11 or 12. I just kept thinking - that has to DESTROY a child's self esteem. WHY would you do that, when devices like this are available?? These parents also thought I was CRAZY to do this program with my four year old.
It's been a couple of months at this point, and I am going to say - WE ARE DONE!
One final note - my son really hated the PINK color - I probably should have purchased a blue one. Might want to keep that in mind, if you have a fussy boy ;-)

Description of Malem Ultimate Selectable Bedwetting Alarm with Vibration - Magenta
Everything you need, now in one compact alarm. The Malem SELECTABLE combines light, sound and vibration to help even the deepest sleeper wake. A selection switch can be easily set to sound only, sound and vibration or vibration only. This alarm also has the added feature of allowing you to choose either eight different tones or one single sound. On the eight tone setting, one tone is activated each time the alarm is triggered to prevent audio accommodation, while the one tone setting allows you to choose your favorite sound to hear each time the alarm goes off. The alarm is connected to a clip-on sensor which detects moisture. This new Easy-Clip sensor easily clips and anchors to the outside of any close fitting underwear for boys or girls. NO sewing to hassle with or metal clips or snaps to come undone during the night. Compact, lightweight alarm unit is attached to the shoulder and sounds continuously until the 2-step turnoff is completed. NO mini-pads to buy and attach each night! Sensor contacts are within the clip so skin contact or sweating will not trigger the alarm. The SELECTABLE alarm uses inexpensive AAA batteries that last up to 10 times longer than standard "button" batteries found in nearly all other bedwetting alarms. Look for our royal blue and camo models, too.Safety & Security
