POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month3 months agoA. It's quite common for children around 5 years old to still experience bedwetting (also called nocturnal enuresis), and many outgrow it naturally over time. Bedwetting during the night and day naps can happen due to various reasons like deep sleep, slower bladder development, stress, or even genetics. Usually, it's not something to worry about unless it’s causing distress or if there are other symptoms like pain, frequent urination, or signs of infection.
You can help by encouraging regular bathroom breaks, limiting fluids before bedtime, and keeping a positive, supportive attitude to avoid making your child feel ashamed. If the bedwetting continues beyond age 7, or if you notice other issues, it’s a good idea to consult a pediatrician to rule out any underlying causes and get guidance on possible treatments.
