Bedwetting is a common condition that is seen to exist in people of all age groups, especially in children who are below 6years of age. Bedwetting is defined as the habit of passing urine unknowingly at night. Bedwetting in children can be caused due to a variety of reasons. The major reason behind this condition is the fact that children’s brain, take more time to gain control over the body functions including urination. Bedwetting can also be caused due to the inadequate synthesis of ADH hormone. In some children the size of the bladder will be comparatively small. This causes the bladder to experience lot of pressure and urinate unknowingly. Urinary infection in kids is also known to cause this habit of bedwetting. Psychological disturbance and stress due to child abuse, family problems, etc are also found to have major impact on a child, ultimately leading to bedwetting.  There are some remedial measures that can be adopted, in order to make your kid get rid of this habit. Wake your child in the middle of night to empty the bladder. Don’t allow your child to intake more fluid before going to sleep. Never blame your child for bedwetting, as it will create a sense of fear and shame in the child. If the condition worsens by causing the child to urinate frequently then it is advisable to consult a doctor.
