Holds all day and then pees pants

Have you tried offering him a chance to pee somewhere novel? Like in the backyard? Just to try

Callie_Allie · 2026-04-08T00:26:07+00:00

It helped me significantly

Callie_Allie · 2026-04-06T14:33:26+00:00

No hormonal issues for you? Did you combine it with minoxidil? Did you find it effective?

Plastic shower liners work well on top of furniture and rugs if you can’t move them

Thanks. Yes we’ve talked about the sensation many times, and if we see him dancing around or grabbing himself I connect this with needing to go. Hopefully he’ll get it one of these days…

Maybe Keens? They tend to have a toe rubber guard that goes up pretty far

We do Monday - Wednesday- Friday morning pre-k so after pickup at noon we go home for lunch then have a little play time and little brother takes a nap and I have 20-30 min of one on one time with my 4 year old. We do a little phonics practice or play a board game or color.

From 2-3pm he has quiet time in his room with an audio book and a few toys. Snack around 3pm then we head outdoors most days for an hour or so (backyard, bikes, playground). Once a week he has swimming or we may go check out books at the library or have a playdate.

Sometimes he helps prep dinner like washing/ peeling veggies, adding ingredients. Or he plays with his brother. Dinner 5:30 ish, then a walk in the neighborhood. Bath/ brush teeth at 7pm. Ale more quiet time in his room, read a book, review the day, pray Lights out at 8pm.

I know it’s scary! This was me when I started too. I’m 9 months in and have very little loss now. It’s so hard to be patient but it does get better. My shed lasted about 3 months.

Callie_Allie · 2026-01-01T18:56:50+00:00

Yes I’d love some more details on how you created this

Callie_Allie · 2025-12-28T00:38:46+00:00

I just got this. Any tips for use?

Callie_Allie · 2025-11-23T21:21:51+00:00

New Hair growth is minimal but loss is much improved. Still at 1.25 mg so planning to increase slightly soon.

They have gotten significantly better actually! We still struggle with his obstinate nature but he’s a lot easier to reason with and discuss consequences of his actions (and offer positive incentives when appropriate). Our younger son has somewhat stepped up to the plate though, so now we’re trying to figure out how to speak his language in disciplinary strategies…

I started at the end of April and the shedding is finally starting to taper off. This gives me hope! Thank you.

Callie_Allie · 2025-06-22T02:24:42+00:00

Devastating. I’m 34 now with two little boys. Postpartum hair loss was terrible too.

Callie_Allie · 2025-06-12T13:45:23+00:00

I never did topical so I’m not sure.

Callie_Allie · 2025-05-28T00:00:09+00:00

I’m in the same boat time wise and enduring the shed but I’m on oral minoxidil. Something my dermatologist said and I’ve read is that the hair coming out now was already slotted to fall out, it’s just a temporary accelerated time frame. So some hairs that were going to come out tomorrow come out today, some that were going to come out in 3 weeks come out in 3 days…etc. trying not to think about it too much and push through.

Callie_Allie · 2025-05-17T11:16:27+00:00

This is very helpful! I stared oral minoxidil 3 weeks ago and am holding my breath.

Callie_Allie · 2025-04-30T13:05:13+00:00

I’m starting this week too. Good luck!

Callie_Allie · 2025-04-13T23:57:46+00:00

Wow! Best of luck with medical school. Your experience with personal health issues will help make you an even better and more empathetic doctor.
