How do you stop a 4 year old from wetting the bed every night?
I am just the nanny not the mom. They kept her in diapers at night until just a few weeks ago and now that they finally took them off she wets the bed almost every night (which means I get to wash the sheets every day!). They have promised to buy her the toy she wants if she can go a whole week without wetting the bed but that hasn't helped.
How do you stop a 4 year old from wetting the bed every night?
You put her back in diapers/pull-ups. It's very normal for a child this age to still wet at night. It isn't anything she is doing intentionally, so bribing her to stop will NOT help. (It will just upset and frustrate her if she is unable to comply.) It takes a certain level of physical maturity and specific levels of a particular hormone before children can hold their urine all night. It isn't something you can teach her. All you can do is wait for her to get a bit older. (Night wetting is considered 'normal' until around age 6-7.)
How do you stop a 4 year old from wetting the bed every night?
Positive reinforcement won't stop her from wetting the bed. She is asleep, she has no control over it.
I wet the bed until I was almost ten. It was really a matter of anatomy (small bladder), poor muscle control (I essentially had to do Keigel exercises, my pediatrician told me that while I was going to the bathroom I should clench my muscles to stop the flow of urine, hold it for a moment, start going again, clench my muscles again, etc. etc.) and the fact that I slept so deeply I didn't know what was going on.
