More is known about bedwetting today. Here is a good clinical guide with a flow chart of how to approach bedwetting

https://www.aafp.org/pubs/afp/issues/2014/1015/p560.pdf

Bedwetting is known to be associated with adhd, so keep that in mind. The odds ratio is nearly 3, meaning kids who wet the bed are nearly 3 times more likely to have adhd than non bedwettwrs.

What other things can we do to train her. I have made sure she puts her bedding in the wash in the morning to know that there are consequences to her wetting herself at night but nothing has worked yet. I don't want to keep doing daily laundry, what was the things that worked for you to train you child to be dry at night?


I'm in my Teens and Profoundly Mentally Challenged and still bedwet. While my bed is dry, because my Goodnite Pads are always held inside 💠 my Boy's Fruit Of The Loom Boxer Briefs Undies, which I really love my Boy's Fruit Of The Loom Boxer Briefs Undies!

It's hereditary in our family too, on my husband's side. Both ny boys wet every night. Get her the diapers and stop shaming her.

You are scarring your kid mentally with these decisions you’re making.
My DD wet the bed until she was 8. We tried the alarm but it came off her undies and went off and woke the whole house up. We also tried limiting liquids, midnight pee etc.
she was and still is a deep sleeper. Nothing worked except time.
We didn't shame her, or make her feel bad, or like she wasn’t trying.
They can’t control their bladder when they’re in a deep sleep.
Buy larger pull-ups, apologize to your kid, and take a step back.


Thank you for sharing. There's a lot more than I expected telling me to go back and leave it for now. [bD]id you keep using the pull ups and then she became dry ?[/b]


NP. Yes. My kid was 8 when we tried the alarm. It took over a week, but eventually it worked.

My father wet the bed until he was a teenager. My grandfather used to beat him for it, which seems like it would have been strong motivation to learn to stay dry. Guess what? Beatings don't work either. (Also, bedwetting runs in families; my brother was a bedwetter, too.)
