Bed wetting...

[beastboy]

No not for my problem, but my 3 year old daughter. She does fine all day with no accidents, but if we don't get her up in the middle of the night she will wet the bed...anything we can do to help this.....besides dehydrating her 3 hours before bed time?

I'm sure HS can shed some light on this.....

Stop using your daughter to cover your problems up and go a box of depends.

A lot of kids her age have problems holding it all night..
Most if not all grow out of it by say 4.

The only thing to NOT do is make it a big deal or an issue with her.
NEVER make a big deal about it unless it goes on say after she is 4 or so.

No drinks a after dinner or a couple of hours before bed is always a good thing.
Keep that up and make her go to the bathroom right before she hits the bed.
A small sip of water before is OK

Get a Matteress liner if she is wetting the bed and it makes the cleanup easier and less embarrasing if she has an accident.

My Daughter is now 10 and fortunatly has allways been a limited Bathroom visitor. Goes all day sometimes without needing to go.

I had this drunk ass roommate that pissed his bed everynight he was drunk.

I called his bed the "Slip N' Slide".

I have a client whose post-traumatic stress disorder seems to have been initiated by bedwetting when he was captain of his high school football team. I really enjoy listening to the same story week after week, two years running now.

to be perfectly honest with you, i had the same problem when I was a kid and there was a medicine that came out and it was a nasal sniffer. it helped me. i dont remember name of the drug, but i'd be something worth looking into.

Don't monogamous relationships suck?

You always crack me up...LMAO!

Beast- It's VERY normal for a three year old to still wet the bed. My lil one pissed her bed until she turned 5! Don't worry about it until she gets a tad bit older...My doctor told me that it's VERY normal and could last til the age of 6!

If she continues past age 6...It may be a health problem. Doc's can perscribe meds( or you could get one of those bed wetting devices) It will BEEP , and hopefully awake her, as soon as the she starts to pee.

Thanks, and I love how you worded that LOL.

It is cute though when she does wet the bed, because she's says in a very innocent voice..."I sorry daddy".

 

[vixenbabe]

Beast, the way I looked at it...SHE WAS NOT PISSING MY BED SO WHO CARES? LOL

Good luck...enjoy her cuz they get mouthy the older they get!

the only way to deal with children is to beat the shit out of them.

When mine says that, I just melt! My youngest is 6 years old and she occasionally wets the bed. No big deal. She is just as embarrased as the next child. We were kind of spoiled with our first daughter though, she stopped wetting the bed after she turned two and never had an accident. They will grow out of it although I had a nephew who wet the bed until he was 12 but that was just because he was and is a lazy bastard!

This can be a serious & delicate problem for children, I speak from experience, I had a problem with pissing the bed untill I was like 11 or 12. There was absolutely nothing I could do about it, I'd wake up & it'd be too late. The bigger of a deal you make out of it, the worse it will be. I'd say the only preventative measures you can take is limit the fluid intake a couple hrs before bed, especially things like milk & put a liner on the bed. I can remember being sooo embarrassed and getting yelled at. I wouldn't stay the night with friends because I was afraid it would happen. It didn't happen all the time but, it did happen. I'm very fortunate, both my children 4(today) & 5 have been very very good at going to the bathroom & have been that way since around 2yrs old.

I did this when I had been drinking a lot or too much GHB.

I wasn't even always asleep - just had total brain shutdown... scary considering "breathing" and "your heart beating" are both involuntary controls as well

There was a doctor on one of those talk shows, saying he gives older kids some sort of mineral supplements that helped.
Takes a few weeks to kick in, and then problem solved.
Sorry I don't have kids, so I wasn't paying attention or remember who /what they were.
