“Talk Back” from this weeks’ newsletter

From time to time, as readers share their struggles with trying to help their bedwetting children, (with their permission), I’ll post them here as well as in the Bedwetting Help for Moms (and Dads!) newsletter. If you’ve dealt with a similar situation, or have encouragement or advice to share, please do! If you’d like to share your own story, email it to info@bedwettinghelpformoms.com. Subscribe to the free bedwetting help newsletter (and a free report “Got a Bedwetter? Top 10 Mistakes to Avoid”) at http://www.bedwettinghelpformoms.com. 

 

Hi, I just recently found your newsletter and I just wanted to share my ‘nightmare’. My daughter was totally toilet trained by about 4 years of age. Tree years later she wet her pants in the middle of the day while we were out. Twice. She said she didn’t feel it coming. She started wetting her bed since then. This happened for about a week and then the day time wetting  stopped but the night time stayed. She wets twice a night. This has been going on for two years now. She’s turning 9 next month. Urine analysis is always clear. Kidney ultrasounds are fine. Stopping intake of water after dinner changes nothing. Me getting her up in the middle of the night might stop her doing one wee but I’m never in time for the next one. My hair is literally falling out from stress over this. She has become a very angry little girl because she feels so inadequate. Doctors don’t seen to listen when I tell them that she ‘was’ toilet trained and no, she hasn’t been molested, raped or in any other way damaged. I have decided to take charge of the situation myself and have requested an abdominal x-ray to see if there’s anything else happening. I’ll let you know if anything changes. 

Till then,

L
