Bedwetting
There can be a lot of different reasons as to why your child wets the bed at night. The majority of children who experience bedwetting can easily stay dry during the day, but have trouble staying dry at night.
This is often explained by a delay in your child’s development. When they sleep, their brain has a hard time registering that their bladder is full and that it is time to wake up and go to the bathroom.
But no need to worry, your child will develop this skill with age.
Yes. With time, your child will most likely overcome bedwetting. Approximately 100% of all one-year-olds wet their bed. By the time they turn five, this number drops to around 15-25%, and that number decreases by 15 % each year hereafter.
By puberty, only around 1% of children will still experience problems with bedwetting.
The majority of children who wet their bed are healthy. But your child should be examined by your family doctor to determine whether or not your child’s bedwetting can be caused by a medical problem.
Your doctor will ask you different questions about your child’s daytime and nighttime bathroom habits and fluid consumption habits. He/she will also do a physical examination as well as a urine test to check for infection or diabetes.
In most cases no. Your family doctor will decide what tests, if any, are needed, after speaking with you and after examining your child.
Conditions that may need more testing include: combined daytime and nighttime wetting, urinary tract infections (UTI), constipation and/or bowel accidents, difficulties with the urinary stream and flow, recent neurological injury, or the like.
Yes, urinary tract infections are common in children. By the age of seven, an estimated 8% of girls and 2% of boys will have experienced at least one episode of UTI. Within one year, 12-30 % of these children will contract their second UTI.
The use of night pants will not delay your child’s ability to control their bladder. Night pants can help take some of the stress around bedwetting away from both you and your child.
Night pants can help reduce wet clothing and bedding at night and give your child a safe and comfortable night’s sleep. And when your child is ready, night diapers will no longer be necessary.
In most cases, leakages occur when the diaper does not fit your child. It can either be put on wrong (see the text “BACK” on the diaper), or it can be too small or too big. Try using a smaller or bigger size also with regards to absorbency.
Your child’s bathroom visits need to be relaxed and it is important that your child is not rushed. If your child is in too much of a hurry, the bladder may not get emptied properly, which can be a breeding ground for bacteria. Some children have a tendency to delay their bathroom visits as “they do not have the time” to go to the toilet. As a rule of thumb, your child should go to the toilet every 2-3 hours during the day.
If your child suffers from diarrhea, the risk of contracting an UTI is higher, as it can be difficult to keep the rectal area clean. Bacteria can travel up through the urethra and then cause an infection. You especially need to be aware of how girls wipe themselves. Girls have a short urethra and they need to wipe themselves from the front and back after urination.
The diet is important too. It is advised that your child eat a fiber-rich diet to avoid constipation, as constipation can make it harder for children to completely empty their bladder. Also, make sure that your child drinks plenty of water during the day. This helps rinse their bladder.
If you go swimming, always change into dry clothes right away. Bacteria thrive in humid and warm environments.
