Bedwetting

Symptoms of Bedwetting

As the name signifies, the symptom is the actual ailment. Bedwetting typically occurs at nighttime when one is asleep and is not in complete control of his or her senses.

Natural Cures

The following techniques may be utilized to assist your child in ending bedwetting:

Firmly teach proper toilet habits to your child. Teach him or her to use the toilet before going to bed every night.
Reduce fluid intake right before bedtime and particularly focus on minimizing the intake of chocolate, caffeine, carbonated beverages, citrus and sugary drinks after 3 p.m.
Ensure that the toilet is easily accessible. Clear the path and install night-lights if necessary.
Develop a reward plan to encourage good toilet habits in the child. For instance, the child will receive a sticker or a button every time the child wakes up in the night to use the toilet. After accumulating a certain number of these stickers or buttons, the child gets a special reward such as a new toy or a treat such as ice cream.
Focus on the positive aspect instead of the negative aspect. Avoid using disparaging words that may humiliate the child. For this reason, it is critical to develop the reward plan for toilet usage during the night and not for the amount of dry nights.
Be supportive. Bedwetting is an embarrassing and traumatic problem for children so moral support is crucial.

Herbal remedies

There are certain herbs that may be beneficial in curing urinary incontinence. However, some herbal medications may not be suitable for young children and should be used with caution.

Combine four parts of valerian root, two parts of lemon balm, one part of thyme, two parts of tormentil, and one part of the leaves of the uva ursi (bearberry) herb. Boil one teaspoon of this mixture in a cup of water. Let the herbs boil for ten minutes, strain and drink two cups of this herbal tea twice a day.
Take regular hot sitz-baths by infusing herbs such as horsetail, oat straw and chamomile to stimulate the circulation of blood in the urinary system.
