Bedwetting: What is normal and what is not...

[girlin2une]

Thank you Tru... I actually don't allow her anything to drink 2 hours ahead of bedtime AND I take her to the bathroom before I go to bed...
I do not think she is lazy and have never made a huge issue of it... My mother seems to think I must be doing something wrong... That bothers me A LOT

Don't freak out, your daughter isn't being lazy and not getting up it's just that bladders are not always mature in some children like they are in others to hold pee and wake them up with the urge to go. It may help your daughter to not be wet in the mornings if you will not allow her to drink anything an hour before bed time, that works for some children too, not all, but some. Just a suggestion.
