POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. To combat bedwetting, doctors suggest:
Shift times for drinking. Increase fluid intake earlier in the day and reduce it later in the day, stopping fluid intake after dinner.Schedule bathroom breaks. Get your child on a regular urination schedule (every two to three hours) and right before bedtime.Be encouraging and positive. Make your child feel good about progress by consistently rewarding successes.Eliminate bladder irritants. Start by eliminating caffeine (such as chocolate milk and cocoa). And if this doesn’t work, cut citrus juices, artificial flavorings, dyes (especially red) and sweeteners. Many parents don’t realize these can all irritate their child’s bladder.Avoid thirst overload. If schools allow, give your child a water bottle so they can drink steadily all day. This avoids excessive thirst after school.Constipation may be a factor. Because your rectum is right behind your bladder, difficulties with constipation can present themselves as a bladder problem, especially at night. This affects about one-third of children who wet the bed, though children are unlikely to identify or share information about constipation.Don’t wake children up to urinate. Randomly waking up your child at night and asking them to urinate on demand isn’t the answer. It’ll only lead to more sleeplessness and frustration for you and your childAn earlier bedtime. Often, children are deep sleepers because they’re simply not getting enough sleep.Cut back on screen time, especially before bedtime. Improving sleep hygiene can help their minds slow down so they can sleep better.Never resort to punishment. Getting angry at your child doesn’t help end bedwetting. The process doesn’t need to involve conflict.
