"Mini" Pee Accidents-what to Do?

It's a boy thing. Mine did this for a while and my two older boys did it again when they hit that age around 8 or so when they become real piggies. Many times it's because they're too busy, don't care and also because there is still some left in the shaft. They don't know to shake it yet, or just don't bother to. I wouldn't stress it all. Just talk to them about making sure it's all out cuz it's icky.

Maybe it's an age thing, because my son started having accidents and mini accidents a year after he was night and day trained, just after he turned 4. He seems to get so involved in playing or whatever, that he leaves it until the last second to go to the washroom. It's driving me crazy, too! I can only imagine it doubled (I have two year old twins, so am really looking forward to going through this with them, too. Ugh). Anyway, I know a couple of other boys his age who are going through something similar.

My son was and is still doing the same thing. He's 5 and still leaks here and there. I've gotten angry with him, I've even given him a pat on the butt because he knows better, but that certainly doesn't work. Be patient. The reason my son does this, is that he's too lazy to get up and go to the bathroom when he's in a serious game. He won't leave his friends for the bathroom, or when he's having too much fun. He'll sit there and jiggle until he's about to explode. When he starts doing the dance, I remind him to go and we'll wait for him to continue the game. I don't know if it's a boy thing. My daughter on the other hand, at 1 1/2 was potty trained and has been dry since then.
They'll grow up and before you know it, it'll be a short memory in the past. Another thing, try rewarding them when they've done their duty. Just don't make them insecure and feel they're doing something terribly wrong.

Take care

I had this problem with my 7 year old. He didn't even realize he was doing it. I took him to his regular doctor and they did a UTI test and Diabetes test and both were negative. She told me it was behavioral and to just remind him to use the bathroom often. Then he was still doing it after a month of this and I took him back to another doctor. He did another UTI test and it was negative. Then he referred me to a Pedriatic Urologist. There we found out he was constipated, even though he was pooping there was build up in his intestines. So he was put on Miralax and went back a month later and his bladder was checked and the walls were still thick and he'll be on Miralax for a couple of more months and then we wean him off. If it happens again then we have to take him back. Ever since he has been on Miralax I have not noticed anything in his undies.

Take him to the Dr and get him checked out.

It can be a girl thing, too. My oldest did this through kindergarten. It's like she'd get too busy playing and not want to take time out to go potty. Once she entered full day school for K I told her she HAD to make the time to go because if any classmates knew what she was doing they'd never let her forget it (harsh, but it's the truth). She was the only K'er in her class that had a bag of spare clones hanging in her coat hook...and got used through the year. I believe in 1st grade it finally stopped happening and in 2nd grade she was totally dry all year. Thank goodness!! Hopefully you don't have another 2 yrs of this but know that one day this too shall pass.
Good luck!

Just be thankful it is only pee. My son went on an antibiotic recently for an ear infection. I think he will need to wear a pull up for the duration. I don't want to constantly clean underwear.

But, girls have this problem, too. My dd and both of her besties have had this issue at about 5 yrs.
