bedwetting

It is a common problem faced by all the children who are under the age of 12.

Our family doctor said that the babies kidneys are normal, they sleep so deeply that the signal of a full bladder does not wake them."

It is not a problem and this can created if the situation is mishandled. "Bed-wetting causes guilt and embarrassment in most children. Parents should create a supportive environment, encouraging their child to overcome his or her problem." "Punishment or pressure to stop having accidents in the night often creates secondary emotional problems and causes the child to take even longer to overcome bed-wetting."

Even without treatment, most children will overcome bed-wetting. However,we can try the following simple home care treatments:

* during night time you can wake up the night and take them to bath room

* Before going to bed let him go to rest room and empty the bladder

* Dont give too much liquid atleast two hours before going to bed

* Put a light through out the passage to bath room from the baby room so that the boy/girl can go easily

Once the child reaches 8 years of age, the child need additional assistance. The child can put a alarm by waking 3/4 times during night or his parents can do that.

If your child is over 12 years and is still betwetting. please consult the doctor immediately.
