Suggest Remedy For Passing Urine In Bed By 8 Year Old

My daughter is almost 8yo and still wets the bed every single night. The smell is really, really bad and she sleeps through the entire night and never wakes. We are a very supportive family and I was happy to allow her grow out of it and keep washing every day and we NEVER make a big deal about it. It doesn t bother her at all. However, do you think I should take her the doctor?

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. I have few questions for you -
1. Has your son stopped bed wetting at certain age and again started having it
2. If so at what age he stopped and when did it start
If he had never stopped bed wetting form birth...you can try some behavioural changes which I can elaborate after proper history and interaction with you , but the effect will not be immediate, but it will be permanent. If its a recurrence after attaining night time control, I suggest you see your paediatrician to rule out pathological causes like urinary infections or Voiding dysfunction.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
