Questions & Answers

Bedwetting is one of the most common of all childhood problems and effects around 19% of school aged children. To have a better idea, in a class of 30 Children
  • Aged 5 years 5 wet the bed at least twice a week
  • Aged 7 years 2 wet the bed at least twice a week
  • Aged 12 years 1 wet the bed at least twice a week
  • Aged 15 years 1 child in every two classes wets the bed at least twice a week
  1. 1. DIFFICULTY TO AROUSE FROM SLEEP

    Some children sleep very deeply and find it hard to wake up when their bladder is full. The brain and the bladder don’t communicate properly, so when the child is asleep the brain doesn’t get the message that the full bladder needs to be emptied

  2. 2. OVERACTIVE BLADDER

    If the bladder is overactive, the bladder muscle becomes twitchy and can hold a small amount of urine. A twitchy bladder therefore, may spontaneously contract during sleep, which can result in wetting

  3. 3. POLYURIA IN NIGHT

    Children who wet the bed may have a low level of the naturally occurring substance called Vasopressin. The brain normally produces Vasopressin during the night to reduce the amount of urine produced, and allows an uninterrupted night sleep. If a child has low levels of Vasopressin at night, they may produce more urine than their bladder can hold and if they do not wake up, they wet the bed

Implications Range From:

  • Low self-esteem, feeling of inadequacy and self-consciousness
  • Strong feeling of shame, failure and guilt
  • Finding it hard to make friends
  • Underachievement at school
  • Behaviour changes, bad behaviour, depression
  • Negative impact on child’s emotional and social development

Bed wetting may also be associated with more serious issues which require medical attention such as

  • Constipation
  • ADHD
  • Sleeping problems, insomnia, sleep apnoea
  • Urinary tract infections
  • Diabetes insipidus or mellitus
  • Bladder Training Programs: These programs teach a child good bladder habits. This means that a child learns to be good drinker and to empty their bladder well when they need to go to the toilet. This cuts down sudden urges that may cause wetting. Learning to hold lots of urine through the day does not always help dry nights
  • Night Alarms: Night alarms go off when a child wets the bed. These work by teaching a child to wake up to the feeling of a full bladder. The results are best when a child wants to be dry, wets very often, and has help from a parent through the night, and uses the alarm every night for several weeks
  • Medications: Medications can change how active the bladder is or cut down how much urine is made through the night and can be prescribed by a paediatrician. Drugs alone do not often cure bedwetting, as the bladder function must be improved
  • Research has proven this method to be the most effective treatment for a bedwetting, when used properly
  • Bell pad and alarm system is a safe and non-invasive treatment for children
  • Most cost effective than spending money on nappies and pull-up. Treatment with bell and pad takes approximately 6-8 weeks
  • The bed pad alarm program is effective in most children. Patience and time are necessary to see the effects and improvement. It is recommended to have the pad for a minimum of four weeks. Each child is different and there are no 100% guarantees that this program will be the solution for your child’s bedwetting. However, is has been successful, with proven results for many users
