My daughter started wetting the bed again - what's wrong?

Question

My 13 year old daughter has suddenly started wetting the bed again, which she hasn't done since she was 3.It started about two weeks ago and has happened about 5 times.She has been through a difficult time the last 3 weeks.She is now living with me after my wife & I separated & she's not fitting in at her new school (getting picked on).Could this be contributing factors.Should I go see a doctor or will this pass?

Answer 1

Yes. These are signs of stress, depressed and she needs some behavioral help. I would take her to her pediatrician/doctor and have a referral to a good behaviorist they recommend to help her cope.

My brother did the same thing when he was younger through my mom's divorce from his dad (who was on drugs and beat my mom) etc. Started when she dated a guy and came down to his fears and anxiety etc.

Answer 2

I agree that it's probably stress-related, but a doctor visit for a checkup would be in order to rule out medical issues such as enuresis.

Good luck!

Answer 3

For a girl at that age, it is not normal for her to have bed wetting. However, this behavior is a sign that she is having difficulty in dealing with problems, specially it involves the person she loves the most. I once read in a psychology book that some people tends to have regression when is faced with a big problem and it happens to kids. It's like going back to the time in your life where you were most happy so that you can evade the present pain. I think that is why your daughter is wetting the bed and has difficulties in school because she wanted to have back the days when you and your wife were still together. I mean, her present attitude is a contributing factor of regression and best you can do is have her checked by a professional. :D

Answer 4

please use homeopathy medicine that will help the child honorably

Answer 5

It will be the changes that have been happening in her life that are causing her to wet the bed. She will be feeling alot of pressure and it sounds like shes really unhappy. You need to talk to her and get her to open up. She has been moved away from her normal home environment and her friends. Maybe you need to think about whats really best for your daughter and put her back in her old school? She has had her life turned upside with not even her friends to talk to. It may pass but then again the situation may only get worse. good luck

Answer 6

think you pretty much said it there. this is probably happening to her due to all the stress going on in her life. no harm in taking her to the doctors they could maybe refer her to someone for her to talk to.

hope all goes well for her.
