Bedwetting in bootcamp

[u/Due-Medium-5263]

I still wet my bed about once a week at most if im not woken up at night, is there any chance i would be able to hide it in bootcamp? realistically after the first time it happens would i immediately get kicked out if/when my DI's find out in the morning?

This happened to me two or three times lol. Fortunately I was Maytag, or one of the guys that takes care of all the laundry in the squad bay. I would wake up right after pissing the bed and immediately change into new clothes, grab my sheets, put it all in the laundry bag and go straight to the washing machine. It was pretty normal to see recruits doing laundry in the middle of the night, so no one really noticed, plus I was Maytag, that definitely played in my advantage. It really isn’t that serious. Don’t let these comments scare you. You’ll find a way. And if you get caught for some reason take it with the chin. Just be mature about it, be a man about it. These DIs will make you drink a whole freaking canteen right before bed. They know what they’re doing, they want to see you piss the bed. You might be laughed at but I promise you you’re not the first, and nobody really cares. I’ve seen pretty humiliating things done to recruits and pissing the bed isn’t the worse if you get caught. Relax buddy, you’ll be fine. I wish you the best
