Bed wetting is a common, yet frustrating problem that many parents face with their children.
It's a source of shame and embarrassment for the child, and results in parents having their patience tested to the max.
Having said that, there are a host of techniques that you can practice with your child to stop bed wetting once and for all.
One of these methods, bladder control exercises, are often times very effective in helping a child overcome his or her problem.
In this brief article, we'll discuss a few of the more popular bladder control exercises being used to stop bed wetting.
Hopefully by the time you're done reading this article, you'll have a few techniques that you can begin using immediately to stop your child from wetting the bed once and for all.
The first exercise simply involves having your child tell you when he or she has to go to the bathroom during the day.
Instead of allowing them to go to the bathroom, have them hold it for as long as possible.
When they cannot hold it any longer or it becomes too uncomfortable for them, let them go to the restroom.
Another technique that you can begin using with your child is called a "urination control exercise".
This method involves having your child stop urinating mid-stream by squeezing the muscles that control urine flow.
Instruct your child to start/stop three times during each trip to the bathroom.
Hopefully these bladder control exercises give you a starting point to stopping your child's bed wetting problem once and for all.
Lastly, remember to always remain patient with your child as you work through this problem together.
