Helping Your Child Reach Dry Nights: Tips for Parents and a Simple Tracking Tool
Bedwetting is far more common than most parents think. According to Mayo Clinic, many children occasionally wet the bed up to age 7 and sometimes even longer. It’s a normal developmental stage and not usually a sign of anything serious.
Why Bedwetting Happens
The Mayo Clinic explains that bedwetting can happen because a child’s bladder is still maturing, they may sleep very deeply, or genetics may play a role. Knowing this can help parents stay patient and supportive.
Tips to Support Dry Nights
Establish a bedtime routine: A calm evening, bathroom visit, and monitoring fluids can help.
Offer gentle encouragement: Celebrate even small victories - praise and small rewards can boost motivation.
Avoid punishment: Bedwetting isn’t a choice; maintaining a positive tone helps your child feel secure.

Spot patterns and triggers
