BedWetting Treatments Bedwetting is the most common urologic problem in childhood. It is generally taken as developmental delay and not as emotional or physical illness. Some toddlers are not developmentally ready to sense that their bladder is full and they need to wake up at night. This one I discovered on accident. My daughter was able to pee in the potty any time, but, getting her to poo was a little tricky for a while. She thought it was gross and whenever we went into the potty, she would bind up and stress out. Instead of making her sit in the bathroom, I would let her sit in the bathtub, just to take a bath. Bladder control is not always achieved as early as parents wish it would happen. Many parents get frustrated because they feel that children should be able to control their bladders at night as soon as they potty train which is as young as two. Most parents do not know that the age which bladder control is most developed and finished is at six. Medical intervention is usually not used until age seven. If your child has a Bed wetting problem before then time is usually the main tool to stopping it. It is estimated that approximately thirteen percent of six year olds wet the bed and five percent are still wetting the bed at age ten. Bedwetting And Your Child: What Causes Nocturnal Enuresis? Being greeted by the familiar smell of urine soaked sheets as you wake a child is not the best way to start the day. And changing wet bedding is not the ideal way to gain an appetite for breakfast. But for many parents dealing with bed wetting is a regular part of their morning routine. Patience is the biggest key to potty training that may not appear to have much to do with physical potty training, however, it has everything to do with how the child will react when doing her business. Remember that while there are wonder kids out there that can be trained in days, some kids take even up to 3 years to be fully potty trained. You can not, for any reason, lose your cool while sitting in the bathroom with your girl. This number gets smaller as children get older and by 10 years of age, it is closer to around 5 percent. Most professionals see Bed wetting as a problem that the child will eventually grow out of and believe that children who continue to have a problem past the age of 10 may have some type of medical issue. If your child does become constipated, using a mild laxative will work. Just inform them that the medicine that they are taking will make his bowel movement painless and when they have their movement reinforce the fact that it does not hurt. For all you mom's out there that think you can do it all by yourself, like I thought I could with my own two children, find yourself a close friend that's a mom as well. Just having someone to talk to about your frustrations and challenges goes a long way in keeping yourself healthy.
