Instructions
Step 1
Keep in mind that today there are approximately 300 treatments for infantile bedwetting. These include physical therapy, and auto-training, and a special diet, and various medications, and hypnosis. But all of them should be prescribed by a doctor after a thorough examination of the child and identifying the causes of the disease.
Step 2
In addition to the treatment given by your doctor, follow the recommendations for parents and children with enuresis. Provide your child with psychological support, explain to him that he is not the only child in the world who has such problems.
Step 3
Do not scold or punish your child if he wakes up wet. After all, this is far from his fault, but a disease that needs to be treated.
Step 4
Don't wear diapers at night. Most of 4-5 year olds with bedwetting are babies who have not parted with diapers for a long time. But they are necessary only in certain cases: on a visit, on a walk, on the road. From one and a half years old, teach your baby to use the potty.
Step 5
Limit fluid intake in the evening and three to four hours before bed. Make sure that the 6-7 year old child observes the daily routine and goes to bed no later than nine o'clock in the evening. Before going to bed, let him go to the toilet.
Step 6
Avoid excessive psycho-emotional excitement before bedtime: watching "scary" movies, active sports games, etc.
Step 7
You shouldn't wake your child up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. Thus, you can only fix the mechanism of manifestation of enuresis.
Step 8
If your baby is afraid of being alone in the room or is afraid of the darkness, do not turn off the night light in the nursery, leave the door to your bedroom ajar. Do not skimp on praise if your toddler has already had at least one dry night.
Step 9
Use herbal medicine - medicinal herbs that have a sedative effect. Brew tea from peppermint, valerian roots, motherwort. After consulting a doctor, you can apply general strengthening procedures (pine baths, walking on the ground barefoot, contrast shower, etc.)
