my 5 and half year old daughter wets bed daily any remedy for this plz help?

Answer 1

the first thing you should do is not let her drink any liquids at all for at least 2 hours before she goes to bed... and make sure you make her go to the toilet before bed. get a matress protector. maybe she doesnt get out of bed coz shes scared? does she have a night light? make sure getting to the toilet and back is very easy for her. i dont tihnk giving her diapers is an answers, she is too old for diapers now and needs to learn an alternative way. diapers for a 5 year old is laziness if you ask me. some people have these problems over a long period of time some people dont. but the best thing you can do is encourage her, if it still plays on your mind see a pediatrician (childs doc)... be REPTITIVE in your actions, she will soon learn when and when not to do her business.. give it some time

Answer 2

It's normal. Sometimes they are in such a deep sleep that the 'full' button doesn't register.

Put a waterproof mattress protector on the bed, and let her wear nappies to bed. Encourage her to wee before she gets into bed, and put a positive reward (just something small) for every time that she has a dry night.

However, unless you want to make the situation worse, DO NOT spank or punish a child. After all, when she first tried to walk, you didn't spank her when she failed! This is NOT an intentional behaviour, and could have a medical background. Remain supportive and loving, and reward the efffort.

If all else fails, in the past, i was reading about a bed alarm, which is a pad that goes in the bed that sets off an alarm when it becomes wet. the idea was that the alarm would wake the child up as they needed to pee, and that they would go to the toilet. Not sure if the shock of the alarm wouldn't make them release though!!!

Answer 3

My son wet his bed 2 or 3 times each night for 13 years. Each morning was a ritual of washing the bedclothes and remaking the bed. Medication to stop bed-wetting, hypnosis, visits to psychologists were totally ineffective; and a full medical examination showed no physiological reason for it.

Then one day, just out of the blue, there was no wet bed. And never has been since. Sometimes, it's just one of those things sent to try us as mothers.

There are books you can get on the subject to advise on how to react and possible solutions for bed-wetting, but they were no good to me.

Answer 4

Have you taken her to a doctor to see if something might be wrong . she might have a small bladder, try to stop all drinks after say around 8 pm. and try not to make her feel bad about it . If the doc. said theirs nothen wrong, then maybe theres something the 5 yearold is worried about , IF thats not what it is then I would over look it as if it is normal and I thingk she will grow out of it . I had the same happen to my 5 yearold ,

Answer 5

give her a diaper to wear..they have diapers for kids who are bed wetters. it may not stop her from wetting the bed but it does stop the bed from getting wet ;)
