Bed Wetting also called enuresis is a natural thing to happen to some children and teenagers but it is considered a medical condition and you should take your child or teenager to see a doctor so they can do some tests.

Your child's doctor can prescribe medication to help slow down the production of urine.

Bed wetting occurs because your child's bladder is not growing fast enough to keep up with your child's production of urine at night.

And if your child is a sound sleeper they will continue to sleep when there bladder gets full and they will wet the bed without even realizing it.
