Guest guest Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 My son has been peeing in bed almost every night since we started SCD, about 10 days ago. He's had this problem off and on for years, but lately had seemed to outgrow it. My husband thinks it's because sugar retains water and the lack of sugar is releasing all the excess fluid. It makes sense - especially since I've been going to the bathroom a lot as well since we started. But I wanted to check if this was common with others on SCD. Thanks in advance for your help.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 This happened to us for the first 3 months and then got much better.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Right now we're taking the GI Prochild multivitamin, the one that's SCD-compliant. He also has two fish oil gelcaps.

One of the reasons is that as inflammation decreases the body releases the extra previously fluid.
