About five years ago I started to find that if I had two or more pints shortly before going to bed, then I would wake up and be in full flow. The first time was when I was in my sleeping bag on my boat and had had a good session in the marina bar before turning in. My bag was well wet and I decided to finish the job and continued wetting until I was done. That way I stayed in the warm. The worst part of sleeping bag or bed wetting is getting up and then getting back into cold wet sheets etc. If you stay in bed the pee stays pretty warm.
Anyway I found this business of waking up in full flow, following a few pints, got quite regular and I always just carried on peeing once I awoke. This now seems to have conditioned my brain not to wake me up when peeing or about to pee with the result that I now wet the bed fully and regularly in my sleep - but only after a fair bit to drink. Otherwise I am dry.
It might also be something to getting older I suppose since I find generally I can't "hold it" as well as I once could.
I do actually enjoy the fact that I wet the bed - especially in hotels.
