Patient's question:
My daughter is now 1 year and 8 months old. Recently, she has been urinating frequently as soon as she has a little urine, and she urinates very often as soon as she drinks water. Could you please explain why she doesn't hold her urine?Doctor's answer:
It's okay, young children don't control their urination very well when they sleep, so they'll go when they need to, or they might just be sleeping too soundly. One hour before bed, don't give the baby too much water, and make sure they urinate before going to bed. At night, mom should remind the baby to get up and urinate every 3-4 hours. It's important to note that when getting the baby up to urinate, they must be fully awake before sitting on the toilet, otherwise it won't help in forming the habit of voluntary urination.
