Bed-wetting in older children can be caused by Trigger Points in the lower abdominal muscles - several points close to middle under the belly button. It can cause adult bladder-release also. A little massage in the area would help the condition - not too hard, but for 15 seconds or more several times a day if you can for several days - even a week. Try to get the Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Clair Davies. Very many helpful remedies for many conditions we don't always think are caused by muscles.

I had this problem till I was 12! When the doctors are smart enough to tell you there is nothing physically wrong, they should be smart enough to tell you it could be a state of mind.

The cure was simply learning to wake up from a deep sleep. My father would wake me about midnight every night. My mind finally learned to wake me rather then create a dream state of being in the bathroom in order to relieve the pressure on my bladder.

Never punish a child by making them hold it or scolding them for something they do not understand, trust me its bad enough dealing with the fact you live in pure fear of your friends finding out.

This may sound weird but it helped me. Give your child one tablespoon of orange blossom honey every night before they go to bed. after a while they will stop wetting the bed. It worked for me.

No drinks before bedtime. Espicially no beer, ( for the people who do still Wet the bed) Try not to let them get up for a drink and make sure they go to the crapper before bed. If all else fails. Get plastic bedspread and sheets

have your child hold it a little longer each time has to go potty. then he does this everytime it will cause his bladder to streach and he will be able to hold it longer thourgh the night.

We have 5 children, all of which at some point in time, have went through this stage. We stopped giving drinks an hour and a half before bedtime and making sure to 'tinkle' before going to bed.
A bad habit parents get into now-a-days is pull-ups!! My oldest was 7 and we told her no more pull-ups and it only took her a week to start getting up to go to the bathroom and quit peeing on herself out of pure lazyness and not wanting to get out of bed. Needless to say- only my first two kids got pull-ups (there is only 13 months between the two or the 2nd wouldn't have gotten them either!)

Hi there,

I stopped wetting the bed about 1 and half ago and im 13.
I stopped by setting my alarm clock to whatever time and i'd wake up about every 2 hours.
If that does workout for whatever reason dont drink any liquids about 2 hourse before bed and make sure you empty your bladder right before going to bed.
Another one that my doctor told was to drink water all day until 2 hours before my bedtime and anytime during the day you have to pee than go and dont hold it in even if its just a little bit.

I wet the bed until i was about 13 years old. One thing that got me to finally stop is a few tips that i heard from other people. One tip is that after six o'clock i wouldn't drink any milk. Then i wouldn't drink anything before bed. If my mouth was dry i would just garle water. Once i started doing these things i compeletly stopped wetting the bed.
