5 Facts about Bedwetting (Enuresis)
- Bedwetting is the final step in toilet training – The age at which a child will be dry at night is dependent of a combination of several factors including genetic, maturation of the brain and urinary system, environment, depth of sleep, and lifestyle factors.
- Some Children don’t grow out of it – Bedwetting is relatively common in children up to the age of 7, and most do grow out of it, but a small percentage will continue to wet after the age of 7 and need treatment to become dry.
- Constipation leads to wet beds – Constipation is the number one preventable cause of bedwetting. Chronic constipation can have serious consequences and should be treated by a knowledgeable continence professional such as a Pelvic health physiotherapist, continence nurse or in some cases by a paediatric gastro-enterologist.
- It’s not their fault – Bedwetting is not the child’s fault and no child should ever be reprimanded or punished as this can make the problem worse.
- Bed-wetting can be cured in a few weeks with the use of a bedwetting alarm used under supervision of a trained continence health professional such as a nurse or physiotherapist.
Supervision of a health professional boosts the success of Bedwetting alarm training according to research into curing mono-symptomatic enuresis (Enuresis is the medical term for bedwetting) It is important to ensure that the child does not have any hidden bladder or bowel issues which may be causing the bed-wetting. Failure to address the underlying issues can cause failure to succeed with the alarm.
