Why my 5 year old daughter cant stop bed wetting till now?

Author: I am facing the problem of bed wetting by my daughter, is it a medical problem or any thing serious about her. she is doing it since her birth.
It’s NOT a medical problem, but it is very embarrassing, but there are ways to help your child.
Don’t get frustrated with her because it’ll only cause her to do it more. To stop her from bed wetting, you have to make her feel good about herself. Don’t punish her because it’ll make her feel ashamed and embarrassed. You can use a plastic sheet over the mattress to save time for cleaning up. And tell her that as a responsibility of wetting her bed, she needs to help clean it up. Also make sure that when she goes to bed, she’s relatively calm. Don’t try to make her go to bed when she’s excited and all because then she’s not concentrated on stopping herself when she wets the bed. And no drinks before bedtime. Another thing is to not lead your children to the bathroom at night. You have to teach them that they need to learn to take responsibility for their own body, so if they feel the urge, they need to go themselves. Make sure they get enough sleep, 8-10 hours, otherwise children may sleep so deeply trying to catch up on rest that they don’t feel the urge to go pee.
Anyways, it just takes patience and time, but these methods should work.

I know it’s common that some young children experience bed wetting (I’m guilty of it as well, as I’m told by my parents), but if it is as consistent as you say it is, then it’s definitely worth seeing a doctor for. Best of luck.

This is kind of embarrassing for me, but, ow well:
-I pissed the bed until I was 9
-It was a medical issue
-Not too many sleepovers
-My 3.5 year old cousin just shat on the floor the other day, and he’s going to school next week!
