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. |
