POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy8 months agoA. Bedwetting, or nocturnal enuresis, is relatively common in children, especially up to the age of 5 or 6. However, at 8.5 years old, it may still be happening for various reasons. In most cases, it is not a cause for immediate concern but could be linked to factors like:
1. Genetics: If other family members had bedwetting issues at a similar age, it might be hereditary.
2. Deep Sleep: Some children are very deep sleepers and may not wake up when they feel the urge to urinate.
3. Bladder Development: The bladder may still be developing, and some children take longer to have full control over their bladder at night.
4. Emotional Stress: Changes in routine, stress, or emotional challenges can contribute to bedwetting.
5. Medical Conditions: In some cases, underlying conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs), diabetes, or constipation can lead to bedwetting.
If bedwetting continues beyond 8 years of age, it may be helpful to consult with a pediatrician to rule out any medical or psychological factors. Treatment options like limiting fluid intake before bed, using bedwetting alarms, or addressing emotional stress may be recommended.
