As a parent how many times have you found your little one standing in his cot complaining about being wet? This article talks about simple steps on how to stop child bed wetting.
It is estimated that approximately 20% of children up to the age of 7 wet their bed.
Like us adults they of course do not have the self conscious control of their bladder.
My brother's 3 year old wets his bed frequently.
So what can be done to make things better?

• Explain to your child that accidents like wetting the bed do happen.
  It is something they will learn to control as they grow older.
  Communicating to your child makes them feel more comfortable and they generally tend to let you know when things aren't so dry.
  
• You can try to limit the amount of fluid intake before bed time.
  Giving milk just before a child's bed time is very popular but why not give it to them an hour or so before? This way they can go to the bathroom before bedtime.
  It's important to explain to your child that the actions you are taking will help them in the long run.
  
• You can try waking your child up 2-3 hours into their sleep and let them use the bathroom.
  Usually a child wets their bed 3 hours into their sleep.
  
• Have you considered a bed wetting alarm? The alarm allows you to place a pad inside your child's underwear that will set off an alarm if your child begins to wet.
  The bed wetting alarms have a high success rate and you can pick some excellent deals on Amazon, eBay etc.
  
• For more serious cases of bed wetting you should take your child to a doctor that can determine any possible infections and provide medical advice.
