Question
Bedwetting at night is a common issue faced by many parents. How should it be handled? Are there methods that can help prevent baby bedwetting and alleviate the parents’ care burden?
Answer
For young babies, night-time bedwetting is often a normal phenomenon, as their brains have not fully developed to control urination autonomously. As they grow older and their brain functions mature, babies typically learn to control urination and develop habits. Parents can take the following measures to assist their babies: wake up the baby at regular intervals at night to urinate, recommended every three hours to help establish the habit of night-time urination. Additionally, it is advisable to reduce the baby’s fluid intake before bedtime to lower the likelihood of night-time bedwetting.
