Like other people have said, check with your daughter's pediatrician first. If nothing is found, think about whether or not your daughter is a very deep sleeper. Kids who sleep very deeply do not always wake up when they need to use the bathroom. For now you may need to take her to the bathroom in the middle of the night and/or have her wear a Good Night (like a pullup) at night to minimize the mess, until she gets to a point developmentally where she is able to wake up on her own.

first you should take her to a Dr. to find out if she may have any kidney problems once you have ruled this out then you need to figure out what is casuing it...did it start suddenly or has it been happening all along. Ask your daughter if she is comfortable in her room , ask if she wakes up through the night (some children are just very sound sleepers) maybie you could set the alarm for a certian time through the night and get her up to the bathroom this may help get her use to waking up and going on her own., is she maybie afraid of the dark? my daughter is 8 she wet the bed until around age 8 I used some of these techniques it worked. Good luck!

Try, asking her why... alot of people dont seem to just ASK the child, at 5 she can answer a question.
she may be sleeping to soundly, and you have to go in and wake her mid night and take her to pee...
u may need to not give her anything to drink more than just an ounce after teeth brushing for 3 hours before bed.
U may need to just let her have a pull up and/ or potty chair in her room because she is afraid to go in the dark alone or light your hall and bathroom better..... but I bet if you ask her, she will out right tell you why she pees in her bed.

You should take her to the ped first to discard any kind of infection or disability....some kids just dont the early develop the reflex of stop at the time of urinating....if you discard all of the options at the ped....you should try to use incentives....If she doesnt wet the bed, youll take her to the park or to the pizza place she likes....Don't say anything bad to her....It's not on purpose....Teach her to take the dirty clothes to the laundry and shell learn a new responsability that'll make her think and try hard not to do that....If any of these is of any good....you may take her to the psychologist, because she could be scared of something, the bathroom at night the dark....don't let her drink anything before go ot bed either....

There are a few things you can try.
No drinks 2 hours before bed.
Get her up and take her to the bathroom before you go to bed.
Take her to the doctor to see if there is a medical issue.
If these step don't help, she is just not ready to go through the night, put an overnight pull up on her and leave her alone. She will out grow it.

Try taking her to a Doctor and see if that can help anything but here is some advise that you can see if it helps before you take her to a Doctor. no water or liquids three hours before bed unless it's an occasional sip. get some good nites ( like pull ups except sized for older children), and plastic bed liners to help with the mattress.

I suggest that you take her to a physician. She could have a bacteria in her kidneys causing this. There is medication for this. Also, please do not wait too long on this. Get her help while she is young. This can be a very degrading and humiliating feeling for those that suffer with this problem. I have a family member that had to live with this. There is help and there is proper medication.

that she use the bathroom before going to bed.
