POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 7 m old boy1 Year agoA. Bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) is common in children, especially at age 6.5. Here are some strategies to help manage this issue:
Practical Tips:
1. Limit Evening Fluids: Reduce fluid intake in the evening, especially before bedtime.
2. Bathroom Routine: Encourage your child to use the bathroom right before going to bed.
3. Comfortable Environment: Ensure your child feels comfortable and safe at night. Sometimes anxiety or stress can contribute to bedwetting.
4. Praise and Rewards: Use positive reinforcement for dry nights, such as small rewards or praise, to encourage progress.
5. Nightlight: Use a nightlight to help your child feel safe and make it easier for them to get to the bathroom if they wake up.
Consult a Pediatrician:
If the bedwetting continues or if you're concerned about it, consult a pediatrician. They can check for underlying issues and may recommend further interventions, such as moisture alarms or other treatments.
Patience and Understanding:
Remember that bedwetting is often out of the child's control, and it’s important to be supportive and understanding throughout the process.
