Question
Our two-and-a-half-year-old child has started learning not to wear diapers, and can go to the bathroom on time during the day when needed. However, when not wearing diapers at night, how should we avoid bedwetting? Should we limit the amount of water they drink before bedtime?
Answer
To help young children avoid bedwetting at night, it is recommended to cultivate good bathroom habits and conduct appropriate training during the day. At night, avoid letting the child consume too much water before bedtime. Parents should remain vigilant and take the child to the bathroom immediately if they detect any signs of urination. Caring for a child can indeed be challenging, but parents should stay awake at night to promptly respond to the child’s needs, thereby reducing the occurrence of bedwetting.
