Scientific studies show that a bedwetting alarm is likely the most effective way of treating bedwetting, however it doesn’t work with every child. It is certainly worth trying. See how it goes for a couple weeks, and if you don’t see any progress its probably best to stop using it for everyone’s sake! It may be advisable to try it again in a year or so when your child has grown that much more.
Your additional info says that she is 31, so I am assuming this is a typo. How old is she?
Regardless of the age, the key thing is to make this a low stress as possible. Make your child realise that it isn’t a major catastrophy if she wets the bed, its not a big deal. Using a diaper of some sort, I have found, works well to reduce the impact of accidents, as they are contained to the diaper. Its much easier to wake up in a wet diaper than a bed that is completely soaked, so its less of a traumatic experience. Huggies has a product called Goodnites, which pull on and off like regular underwear, and can be used along with the alarm. They are a good idea because your child won’t need your help to change the diaper, and if she does wake up before peeing she will be able to easily pull them down to make it to the toilet.
If she is under 6 years old or so, its probably best to wait on any sort of intervention (including the alarm), as its a normal part of development for some kids. At this age its not much of an issue to them, and starting a treatment just brings more stress to their lives–You are better off just to put her in a regular diaper and let her grow out of it in her own time.
Let your child let you know what the next move is. If she is troubled by the accidents (and not simple scared she might get punished) its a good idea to take advantage of that motivation and try the alarm. Otherwise, play it cool and let her mature on her own.

That’s not important. What is her age? What have you done in response to her bed wetting?
