cafelate, I appreciate your concern. I will look into it definitely, but from what I understand, bedwetting is a sign of diabetes when the child is usually dry and starts having accidents. my daughter has never been dry. she has had this problem for years. but of course, it doesn't hurt to rule out everything.
Lolacat, I have taken her to many GPs, highly recommended ones, who have prescribed medication or told me to get the Alarm. I have followed their advice to the letter, but it hasn't helped. I have been dealing with this for years now, and as I mentioned before, she wets the bed every single night, sometimes twice the night. I don't think it hurts to try new techniques, when obviously, the old ones are not working.
Flames, yes I know a lot of people wet the bed. I have done my research, and medical professionals say that 1-2% of children wet the bed around this age. Most of them have outgrown it. I am trying to be patient and support her as much as I can, but at the same time, I want to make sure that I explore all possibilities so I can help her overcome this problem.
Thank you Jenny and MrsG. I have heard about the chiropractor and I am willing to give anything a try at this point. Hopefully, he will be able to help her!
Jenny, I do think her bladder is very small b/c she has to "go" constantly, but she also drinks a LOT. I had it checked out a few years ago and they said it was normal. If the chiropractor doesn't work out, I will have her bladder tested again.
Thank you guys so much for all your help!
Thank you guys for your help and suggestions. Diabetes, yikes! I never thought about that. She hasn't lost weight though, actually gained it this summer when we were in the US. I do limit her beverages 3 hours before bed. She always goes to the bathroom right before sleep. Nothing seems to help! I am thinking she must have a really small bladder. Oh, and she is a very deep sleeper.
3rd Time Lucky, I will look into the diet option, but she is an extremely picky eater, so it's hard enough getting her to eat.
