What worked for us! Matt’ story - from wet to dry! Finally, at 16, dry for 6 months! I am a single parent raising a teenage boy. My son, Matt, has had a nighttime wetting problem from day one. Up till the age of 14, Matt had not had a dry night. He was a heavy wetter, and to reduce the laundry load, we have always used a nighttime diaper. It is important to be sensitive to a child’s privacy and sense of independence. Thus, I did everything to make sure that he was able to take care of things him self. We have been to the doctor and have tried different remedies... (Click here to see rest of message).

Hello, I have a daughter that is 10 yrs old. She been having troubles wetting the bed for over a year now. I found this web site when she started to have this problem and I was talking to another parent about it. I told her that I took her to our family doctor and told her what was going. She said that is it common for a child of a parent that wets the bed to have the same problem. I also had a problem at her age and her father which he wont say, I had to get it from his mother...

Hello, my doughter was potty trained at the age of three and a half. Lately shes had some problems holding her bladder in time to get to the toilet. I've tried to explaine to her that she can wait forever. I took her to the doctor last week and he coulden't find anything wrong with her. I've started asking her numerous times, "do u have to go to the potty" and she'll say no. Practiclly 30 seconds later she'll have an accident. There have'nt been any life changes or stresses pu on her. What sould I do?

I took my daughter's best friend in 4 months ago when she turned up severely beaten by her father with nowhere to go and she has been living with us ever since. She has PTSD from years of abuse and she has pretty violent nightmares and flashbacks. But recently (the last few weeks) she's been wetting the bed every night. And she's devastated by it, tried to hide it at first because she thought I'd "get rid of her". Any ideas on how to help her feel less ashamed? Should I suggest she wear diapers? Buy her a plastic sheet? She's so upset by it, I don't know how to help.

Although I have replied to other parent’s posts before, I have been wondering whether I should send in my own post. The thing is that I am in two minds as to whether there is really a problem. As I have mentioned before, my son started wetting the bed again at the age of 14 when his father died. He was very upset at this time and both our family doctor (GP) and I agreed that this traumatic event in his life was the cause of his resumed wetting. When after about a month or so he was still wetting every night, I spoke to him about it and he reluctantly agreed to go back to wearing nappies in bed to protect the bedding and avoid waking up in a cold wet bed. After trying disposables for a while, he was finding that they not only leaked, but they also gave him very bad rashes, so he switched to terry nappies and plastic pants, as he had been used to wearing these in bed up to the age of 9 without such problems. This solved the bedding and comfort problem and has worked well ever since. But herein lies the problem (if there is one), in that he has made no progress towards becoming dry again, even though it has been over two years now since my husband died. In all other respects he appears to have got over the bereavement, and now seems to be well adjusted and happy, and doing well at school. Judging by the soaking wet state of the nappies which he leaves out for washing each morning, he must still be wetting two or three times a night. This doesn’t exactly reassure me that he is about to become dry again at night any time soon. I have, on occasions, brought the subject up with him, but he just gets annoyed and accuses me of blaming him for something he can’t help doing. I can’t help thinking that he may have settled into a lazy and comfortable routine and have no real incentive to change it. Should I just let his wetting take its course, or should I try to force the issue and risk him turning negative towards me? I don’t know what to do for the best.
