Bedwetting is usually a stage of development that kids simply outgrow with patience and time. Asmall percentage of children are sensitive to foods that contribute to noctunal enuresis.You can benefit from eliminating foods such as citrus,caffeine and others. Low functional bladder capacity might also be the cause of your problem.you might be having a less forewarning or may be sleeping so soundly that you just do not realize when your bladder is full. In this case, sleep conditioning may help. Otherwise,check with a physician to rule out any illnesses or physical reasons.

That is completely normal! Trust me. Everyone in my family wets the bed. I used to wet the bed until I was 11 too. It's normal but t eventually stopped by itself. I had a urinary infection and I'm not sure if it had anything to do with it but I had a problem where I was afraid of toilets so that made it a lil worse too. I'm 13 now and it's stopped. Just make sure you use the bathroom every night before bed and I would turn off any electronics that sound like it could be a stream or waterfall:
air conditioner
TV
If you have a bladder problem, don't worry. It's probably not that serious at age 11 and medicine can fix it pretty fast.

Bedwetting is involuntary urination in children over 5 to 6 years old. Some times older children also have this problem.
Your doctor will discuss the history of bedwetting in detail. You can help by keeping a detailed diary that outlines normal urination and wetting episodes, fluid and food intake (including time of meals), and sleep times. A physical examination should be performed to rule out physical causes. A urinalysis will be done to rule out infection or diabetes.
X-rays of the kidneys and bladders and other studies are not needed unless there is reason to suspect some other problems.
Treatment -
Doing nothing or punishing the patient are both common responses to bedwetting. Neither helps. You should reassure your child that bedwetting is common and can be helped.
Start by making sure that you go to the bathroom at normal times during the day and evening and does not hold urine for long periods of time. Be sure that to go to the bathroom before going to sleep. You can reduce the amount of fluid intake and drinks a few hours before bedtime, but this alone is not a treatment for bedwetting. You should not restrict fluids excessively.
You can have a chart of diary that the you can mark each morning. While this is unlikely to solve the problem completely, it can help and should be tried before medicines are used. It is most useful in younger children, about 5 to 8 years old.
Bedwetting alarms are another method that can be used along with reward systems. The alarms are small and readily available without prescription at many stores.
The alarm wakes the child or parent when the bladder is full, and the child can they get up and use the bathroom. Alarm training can take several months to work properly. You may need to train more than once. Bedwetting alarms have a high success rate if used consistently.
Once you are dry for 3 weeks, continue using the alarm for another 2 weeks and then stop.
Prescription medications such as DDAVP (desmopressin) are available to treat bedwetting. They decrease the amount of urine produced at night. These medicines are easy to use and have quick results. They can be used short term for an important sleepover. They may also be prescribed for long-term use for months. Your doctor may recommend stopping the medicine at different times to see if the bedwetting has gone away. Some sources find that bedwetting alarms combined with medicine results in the highest number of cures.
For children with secondary enuresis, your doctor will look for the cause of the bedwetting before recommending treatment. Consult your doctor for further treatment. Getting plenty of sleep and going to the bathroom at regular times during the day and night can help prevent some aspects of bedwetting.-

My nephew lived with me when he was six or seven. He wet the bed, also. here's how we solved the problem.
He made sure he used the toilet b4 bed at nine pm. When I went to bed 2 or3 hours later I woke him up to go again. After a week or two he was waking up by himself.
He never remembered waking up and he never wet the bed.
maybe Ur Mom or Dad could help or U could use an alarm clock...?

1. Do not take any fluids two hours before retiring.
2. Stop thinking that you are going to wet.
3. Don't read or watch horror stories or crime episodes.
4. Attend the toilet before you go to bed.
You are normal, don't worry. In the course of time, this would disappear. Be confident that you are a normal girl.

One more thing -
Do not take any diuretics before sleep. There are substances, like medicine, coffee and tea, that would make one pee more often. Try to avoid those substances before bed.
