Our child aged 11 has a long history of bedwetting (nightly) but this has recently improved to 2 or 3 times a month. How long should she be consistently dry at night before removing all 'bed protection'

I agree with Julie, I would keep the protection on the bed for quite a while. You don't want your daughter to lose her confidence and security of it being there until you know for sure this is over. Congratulations for being a great parent for caring and understanding.

I wet the bed till I was 11-12. There was a plastic sheet still on my bed when I left for college. Mom always said "just in case".

I think leaving the protective covering is very smart. I have them on my childrens beds to protect from accidental wets to throw up. I bought a really good mattress protector and it works wonders. Your child will grow out of wetting. Just be patient.

Really, I wouldn't count nights. Perhaps, parents who pay attention to the slightest detail may be why she is still wetting the bed.
Chill out. I don't know of anyone who wet their bed on their wedding night!!!
Thanks for the 2 points.

The first night you take it off, the wetting will occur. Who knows, i can't predict the future
