6 yr old - Wet Dreams?

I noticed a stain on my 6 year old son's comforter.  He said that twice he has woken up, and the inside of his pants are wet. He takes them off and that's what caused the stain.  It is not urine, my guess is that it's the result of a wet dream?  Is this possible?

But then again, if an 8yr old girl can start to grow breast and even have a period I guess an 8yr old boy can mature  like too.  Who knows now a days!

Wow it seems like something is making kids mature sexually faster than before.  I once overheard my 12yr cousin telling his mom that he keeps seeing white stuff in his underwear and asking what is that, but 6 and 8yrs old seems young.

Well, 12 is the normal age for puberty. 11, 12, 13.

The hormones from the meats we are eating are causing children to mature faster

Also, I recall learning somewhere that puberty is at least partially triggered by lifetime calorie intake.

Wet dreams are really a natural occurrence.  Nothing to pray over or feel is unnatural and demonic. In fact, it's automatic and something no one can control.  Once he is older, he may begin to masturbate. Which is normal and also natural.  Hormones drive these things. :>)

My son is 5 years old and i notice small white wet pee spots in his underwear too. Sometimes the bed would be wet too like he pee on his self. And sometimes only his underwear was wet with the white dry residue in his underwear like dry semen. So glad it's not so unusual

I started having wet dreams before age 7 in 2nd grade and had emissions in my pants while at school. I didn't want wet pants in school so I put toilet paper in my underwear while at class. It continued until I started masturbating at age 11. And with that, I never had a problem with my parents. They just told me to go to my room or the bathroom and close the door.

Wow I'm so happy I found this, my story is similar though my son just turned 7. He had on different underwear this morning and I asked him why? He told me he had an accident in his sleep and didn't know it was coming. I immediately felt the bed and it was dry. There were about 3 to 4 wet spots on his underwear and it did not smell like pee. I'm just glad to see this is actually pretty normal! Thank you

I'm relieved because this has happened to my 6 yr. old son a few times in the last few months. He was curious because the inside of his underwear had a white pasty stain. Nocturnal emission was my first thought. I will definitely be sharing with his GP in a few days when we go to his 7 yr. old well check.

OMG! I thought I was going crazy when I seen this white paste in my grandson's under pants. I was ready to take him to urgent care, but I decided to search this online & to my relief found this site & this above comments. I've found this white paste twice now in his underpants but it seems he is wetting himself to. He is 3 months from being 4 yrs old. I will call his PCP today just to be sure, but I have some relief for now. Thanks Slim88. Your story was the most like mine.

I was freaked out but hearing that put me at ease hope it does the same for you.

I'm so glad I found this site. When my 5 year old woke up yesterday morning he said my pee's white! I could see the remnants and know it most definately was not "pee". I'll definately be mentioning it to our GP next time we're there but good to know its not apparently that unusual!

i posted a question something like that and i was told no, but i still think that it was. but it seems like kids are going though this younger and younger. my son is 8 and i truly think that is why he was complaining in the morning and once during the day about his pants being wet, i told him to go change. and i know he didnt pee his pants because he hasnt in a long time. i would call the dr and ask that is what i am going to do.
