You can go to a Pediatrician or a Psychiatrist. Is bedwetting sometimes caused by stress placed on the child or if the child is witness to abuse within the home? No. Bedwetting is not caused by stress or by witnessing abuse at home. The problem is they sleep too deep or incorrectly. Is there a correlation between urination and high protein intake? No there is not. High protein intake can cause metabolic problems that could cause a child to wet more or less but does not cause bedwetting. Common bedwetting is not a mental or learning problem, and punishing your child will never provide a solution. In fact, a child who is punished for wetting the bed can develop emotional problems which may make the bedwetting problem more intense than stop it. Every child is different and most children outgrow bedwetting. What is the role of parents? Parents should be helpful for supportive treatments to be effective. Accusing or threatening the child could make the childs condition worse. First of all, control fluid intake, it should be limited for up to two to three hours before bedtime. Rewards, like toys or favorite foods may be given for staying dry at night to motivate the child.

Posted on: 11/20/2007 Many bedwetters are misdiagnosed with ADD/ADHD. Symptoms of a bedwetter’s deep sleep disorder, such as the inability to stay focused or to concentrate, are almost identical to those of ADD/ADHD. For 32 years, the Enuresis Treatment Center has successfully treated thousands of people from around the world by correcting an unhealthy deep sleep pattern. One this pattern is corrected, the bedwetting is permanently resolved, and the ADD/ADHD symptoms often abate. The Enuresis Treatment Center has put together an informative guide to understanding and treating bedwetting. This free bedwetting guide is available to download at www.freebedwettingguide.com
