My son is a heavy sleeper and doensn't wake up to go to the bathroom what should I do with him?
No matter even if I wake up at night and take him he still manages to bed wet. He is only 5 years old. He also has accidents during the day. His Dr. says its normal for his age. I give him a deadline for drinking at night and I make him use the bathroom before he goes to bed but it never fails. What is the best way to handle him and the situation?
Answers:
Wake his as* up with a belt.he will learn, sooner than later.
At 5 it is normally but your son might have a more serious problem. If he does when he's older he'll have to wear a beeper that goes off and wakes the child up when they wet themselves. It's pretty cheap and works wonderfully.
Have you considered using nighttime diapers until the matter is resolved. They are called good nites.
purchase child incontinence pants fromgood chemists.
Bedwetting often runs in families and affects over half a million children between the ages of 6 and 16 in the UK. So your children are by no means isolated. In fact, according to surveys taken in Great Britain, Holland, New Zealand and Ireland in 1998, the number of children who regularly wet the bed average:
1 in 6 five year olds
1 in 7 seven year olds
1 in 11 nine year olds
1 in 50-100 fifteen year olds and older [including adults]
Nothing at this point - it is normal and what you are doing is correct. Just try to make it a positive experience and don't make him feel bed. Stress is a big contributor
I know of many cases (sleep disorders usually) where boys do this till 12 years old.
Just wait it out, the doctor is right. Try not to make a big deal of it, buy some plastic sheets. He isn't doing it on purpose. It sounds like his brain isn't signaling him to wake up when his bladder is full. There isn't anything you can do to speed this process, eventually his brain will mature.
I had the same problem when I was younger. You said you went to the doctors, if it still persists you can see if they can run test. Your son may just have a small bladder, he will grow out of it. Keep your deadline at night for drinking anything. He may have to wear pull ups for awhile, instead of changing the sheets everyday. But he will grow out of it.
Don't make a big deal out of it. I know that's easy for me to say, but it is quite common for kids to do that until the age of 7.
My friends son wet every night, she was going out of her mind with all the washing and changing beds. She tried all kinds of things: alarms that go off when they wet; a throat spray that was supposed to stop it. Nothing worked but sure enough he grew out of it by the time he was 8. I remember her shouting at her son sometimes and talking to me about it in front of him, I felt so sorry for him, poor little guy it wasn't his fault after all. So do try to not let it upset you, so he doesn't pick up on it.
I presume you are using a rubber sheet? Also maybe do a reward chart for every night he stays dry, dunno if it'll work but it's worth a try. Be patient.
Good luck and lots of love x x
You are doing fine. Keep doing everything you are. Get the junior pullups for him and if he doesn't want those (they can be very sure at this age, as I'm sure you are well aware!) then buy some pampers bedmats. Use them on top of the sheet for ease (even though you are supposed to put them under the sheet). He will grow out of it. If you are still worried this time next year, approach your doctor then for more advice. I bet, having just started school, even if he is where he has been for the last few years, he is still getting used to everything and this will mean a little upset over and above normal. This will be something he doesn't have to concentrate on for now.
Good luck.
tell him to stop wetting the bed or else you will stop his allowance
[aka] [stop giving him money for doing jobs.]
I beg your pardon. Would you mind repeating the question?
There is no quick fix for this a few things must occur. 1) Please have his bladder checked, because it might be weak. 2) He may have a kidney infection 3) You are going to have to make sure after at least 7pm he's not drinking anything unless he's taking medicine at which he still will not need a large amount to do that. 4) To save his mattresses put him on a pull-up. I hope some of this advice works for you
I can understand your problem I have a 5 year girl and she has the same problem. She will wet during the nite and during the day she will wet her pants at least 3-4 times a day I will ask her if she had to go but she says no and then she will have a accident. I will tell you the same thing my doctor has told me she has a small bladder and that she will grow out of it. But is hard with all the washing I have to do and I worry about her when she will go to school. Buy some of those pull-ups to help him at nite and also buy some pads to go on the bed they sell them at drugstores. Good luck
This happened with my younger cousin who is also 5 she wet the bed every night for about 2 months then she grew out of it she even went pee before bed and did not have anything to drink after 7 and she still wet her bed.We thought it was because of bad dreams but you never know.she is still 5 and never wets the bed she gets up if she has to go.
Dont do anything. Just give him a bath and change the sheets. He isnt "doing" it. He cant help it. Many children suffer from bedwetting. Those pull ups help keep the bed dry. Yelling, scolding and punishment is not the answer. Even limiting drinks doesnt really help until his bladder catches up with the rest of him. As for the accidents during the day it sometimes helps if someone reminds him to go or he may just not be going cause hes too busy and doesnt want to take time from playing. Just keep reminding him.
