Children’s night enuresis

What is such an enuresis? This is urinary incontinence, causing anxiety of parents from whom the children themselves suffer. In a child, this can be considered a quite ordinary phenomenon before he reaches 4 years of age, then wet diapers are already considered a disease.

This disease is divided into 2 types: daily enuresis (that is, a child can be described during the day) and nights are more common (urinary incontinence during sleep). There is also primary enuresis — when a child does not wake up with a crowded bladder and writes to bed. Secondary — manifests itself during day and night sleep, as a result of acquired and congenital diseases.

We exclude factors such as organic disorders and infections, then it can be argued that the cause of enuresis may be immaturity of the bladder and the central nervous system. Explaining in a simpler language, we can say that a signal is not received in the brain that you need to wake up when the bladder is full. Night incontinence unpleasantly affects both the whole family and the child himself, in this case we can assume that this is rather an unpleasant problem than the disease.

The psychological state of the child himself, and various stressful situations plays a huge role. Most often, this happens, after a quarrel of parents, before the control work at school or conflict with their peers, such events in the life of a child as parting with parents or their divorce play an important role.

It is very important that the child himself can suffer from this problem and close, hiding both from parents and peers. This suppresses him, he cannot go on a campaign, go to the camp, afraid that everyone will find out about it and will laugh at him. You cannot buy him baby underwear wholesale him so that he will change it every morning. The same thing happens with parents: they cannot go to rest with the whole family, sometimes mistakenly thinking that the child will spite it for them. Then it turns out a vicious circle.

Here are just a few tips for parents with this disease:

one. It is necessary to completely wake the child when you raise it at night to the toilet, otherwise doctors do not advise doing this. If the child does not wake up, the brain does not perceive this as a signal to the right actions.

2. You can limit the consumption of fluid before bedtime and gradually accustom it to this regime, the lack of fluid can be replenished with a inheritance day.

3. Such a child cannot be punished, it is enough to demand from him the adoption of a shower and an independent change of bedding, unless of course the child is large enough for this. Otherwise, the baby may feel not full and will be closed in himself.

four. It is necessary that the child lives a full and ordinary life, with the proper interaction of parents and educators of a kindergarten or teachers and the leadership of the camp.
