What should I do if my child always wets the bed?

Patient's question:

My child is already five years old this year, but sometimes he still wets the bed. Is this a disease? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

For children under three years old or those who are less frequent, occasionally wetting the bed or experiencing bedwetting is normal. This may be due to the child being tired during the day. Additionally, bedwetting usually occurs during the first half of the night. It is recommended that parents wake up the child more frequently at night and help the child develop a nap habit, which can prevent them from sleeping too deeply at night. Additionally, it is important to limit the child's fluid intake in the evening or afternoon, reduce consumption of liquid foods, and increase intake of solid foods.
