Don't know if your child takes medications. Some meds make them wet their beds and there is not much you can do. As soon as my son was off risperdal and abilify, he stopped the bedwetting.

We are one year into no bedwetting with our 16 year old son! We had a behaviorist from his school come to our house and this is what she had us do:

for first week,make sure he empties his bladder before going to bed, then wake him up 2 hours after he goes to bed to go to bathroom. (also no pullups or any incontinence underwear, just normal pj's to bed)

- if he's already wet, reduce time to wake him up by 1/2 hour each night until you hit the point where he's dry when you wake him

- wake him again two hours after that to go (same routine as above)

- if in the morning he's wet, you'll have to add another check in two hours after the second time

if you've had some slip ups, continue above for another week or two....once you establish his "go" times

make sure you wake him prior to that time.

after a week or so with success at above routine, you begin to increase the time you awaken him by one half hour every couple of days (if there's too many accidents, you can do in 15 minute intervals)

It gets to the point where they even wake up themselves to go and they don't like feeling wet anymore.

Believe me, after 15 years of just about daily bedwetting, I did not think this would work. I was convinced it was either a medical or developmental issue. But it did work beautifully, it's a pain in the butt to do initially but the payoff is worth it. I was so tired of washing his bedding everyday and having to worry when we stayed away from home, but no more. also use a plastic sheet under the regular sheet and just quickly change at night if you need to.

Good luck, don't give up hope, bedwetting can be resolved!
