Bed Wetting & Nocturnal Enuresis Tips for Children

Bed wetting, also called nocturnal enuresis is a common problem in children and impacts Millions of children in the USA. During this developmental stage it is important to remind your child that they are not alone. Teach your child the importance of using the bathroom rather then believing they are at fault. When your child understands, it encourages them to want to achieve dry nights. Remember that your child should never be punished because of bed wetting. Bed wetting is part of every child’s development. Focus, support, and encourage your child to have a successful treatment.

Focus: Pay attention to your child’s nocturnal enuresis by providing support and encouragement. Discouraging them can stress your child and cause them to wet the bed. If your child is over the age of 8 or expresses concern about bed wetting, contact your doctor. If your child is under the age of 8, use behavioral motivations and a bedwetting alarm.

Encourage: Encourage children to use the bathroom by friendly reminders or leaving notes around the house to remind them to go potty. Explaining that using the toilet is a “grown-up” activity will encourage your child to use the toilet. Involve your child in the clean up process, but do not make it a punishment. Help them understand that cleaning up is a process that comes with soiled bedding or clothes.

Easy Cleanup: Having an easy clean up allows your child to get involved. A fast and easy clean up teaches your child to have good hygiene. Use a waterproof mattress pad or an overlay to keep your mattress clean and dry for a quick clean up.

Remove Stains: Using a mattress stain remover will keep your sheets and mattress as good as new. Children can sleep in a fresh bed without urine smell and stains.

Support: Having an easy clean up allows your child to get involved. A fast and easy clean up teaches your child to have good hygiene. Use waterproof bedding or an overlay to keep your mattress clean and dry for a quick clean up.

No Teasing: Protect your child’s feelings by creating a safe environment at home. Teasing can stress children. Ensure that their siblings also provide support rather than discouraging them from success by explaining that bed wetting is a normal and nocturnal enuresis can be treated.

Top 5 Bed Wetting & Nocturnal Enuresis Tips for Deep Sleepers

Deep sleepers tend to sleep through the night without waking up. Bedwetting alarms with loud sounds and combination of multiple tones, vibrations, and lights can be used to wake up your deep sleeping child. Here are bedwetting tips for deep sleepers that can help you wake up your child.

BedWetting Alarm: Get a bedwetting alarm with variety of alert tones. One of the most helpful bedwetting tips for deep sleepers is to invest in an alarm that offers variety of tones since deep sleepers tend to respond better to multiple tones. Alarms such as Chummie Premium bedwetting alarm that has multiple alert tone prevents your child from getting use to a single tone.

Practice Waking Up: When you first get the alarm, practice with your child how to respond to the alarm. Let your child lay in bed imagining to be asleep, pretend to trigger the alarm and let your child get up, switch off the alarm and walk to the restroom and come back to bed.

Be Ready to Wake Up: In the beginning your deep sleeper may not wake to the alarm, even though rest of the household would wake up. You will have to wake up your child initially and take him or her to the bathroom to finish urinating in the toilet.

Keep Extra clothes and Sheets Handy: Don’t expect immediate results. Initially, your child may not wake up when the alarm triggers, and might wet the bed. So, having a pair of pajamas and sheets available at arm’s length will help you quickly change your child and return to bed. Many parents find this as one of the most useful nocturnal enuresis tip for deep sleepers.

Get a Waterproof Mattress Pad: While your deep sleeper gets use to waking up to an alarm, it’s a good idea to use a waterproof overlay such as the Chummie Quilted Waterproof Mattress Pad. The protective waterproof mattress overlays are usually placed on top of the fitted sheet to protect the sheet from any urine leaks and sweat stains. For everyday use you can buy washable waterproof overlays that can be easily machine washed in a regular load and also get disposable overlays for traveling purposes or to use when you have a house guest. Read Types of Waterproof Mattress Pads’ for detailed information about different kinds of overlays.

Get a Mattress Stain Remover: It’s a good idea to get a mattress stain remover to overcome urine stains and spills. An excellent recommendation is the OdorZyme Stain Remover. Most mattress stain removers come in two sizes – portable and full size. Select the right one if you plan on traveling or will be using it at home to deal with nocturnal enuresis. Read How a Mattress Stain Remover Works’ for more information.

As a parent you might find some or all of these bedwetting tips for deep sleepers useful. Although there is no quick solution to bedwetting, try out these bedwetting tips for deep sleepers to make waking your child easier and dealing with wet beds simpler.
