Bedwetting - do I see a gastroenterologist or urologist?

Can you provide a link to research supporting this assertion? Thanks.

I will when I have time, but in the meantime you could try looking it up yourself. This is helpful information for many, many people so please dont' google it and then paste links only to sources the do not support it. It has helped many people I know stop bed wetting that they couldn't figure out from a regular doctor. The research is out there, especially for gluten sensitivity and milk allergies.

This is by far the most interesting post I've read. It's useful for me since my son is 6 and has bedwetting issues. He also has celiac. So, it's interesting to know there may be a correlation between bed wetting and celiac.
I have always blamed it on the bunk bed saying what kid kid want to get up and climb down that bed in the middle of the night and climb back on later without getting hurt.

Will read up on it. Thanks!

Sorry this simply not true. Some betwetting? Maybe. Most? No! So the research or stop just saying stuff.

I googled 'incontinence and food allergies'. Of the results that mentioned allergies at all, none of them indicated that 'most' cases of bed wetting were caused by allergies. The few that referred to allergies only said 'some' or 'may'. "Constipation" as a reason for enuresis was listed a cause far more frequently than allergies. None of the articles cited research for your assertion that 'most bed wetting is caused by a food allergy'.
