What to Do If a 4-Year-Old Still Wets the Bed at Night?

Question

The child is now over four years old and still frequently wets the bed at night, while being able to use the toilet independently during the day. The child had a craniospinal meningocele repair surgery at birth. I would like to know if there are any methods to solve the bedwetting problem.

Answer

Bedwetting is not related to the craniospinal meningocele repair surgery performed at birth. It is quite common for a four-year-old child to wet the bed at night. I suggest that parents wake the child up to urinate during the night and be cautious about avoiding excessive fluid intake and sweet fruits during naps. This is the answer to the question, ‘What should I do if my 4-year-old still frequently wets the bed at night?’ Wishing the child a quick recovery and a healthy life.
