Bedwetting - The 6 Key Causes

So, what actually causes bedwetting?

The causes are simple and not differ between the children. It is certainly true to say that the most likely cause is a combination of causes. Below is a list of possible causes, which all have a basis in scientific knowledge.

1. The child makes too much urine at night



2. you have small bubbles



3. you have the inability to wake up from deep sleep?

You have

4. bladder dysfunction



5. you have a brain /bladder communication topic



6. There is a hereditary component to bedwetting

You do not need to know what the specific cause of your child's bedwetting is to get rid of them. A successful approach, since many of the possible causes as possible.

The causes are, as you will see, difficult to disentangle, since they usually interconnected and children have a combination of these causes.

The child makes too much urine at night.

In the scientific literature, this is called nocturnal polyuria.

As we get older, usually around 3-4 years, our body begins to produce a hormone that prevents us from producing as much urine at night. The hormone is called anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP). It means that we have about half of our day-the amount in the night. Some bed-weather is not enough of this hormone, which means that they continue the same amount of urine in the day as at night. At least, this means that they have to empty their bladders when they woke up to do. It may be that they are more in their development at the beginning of this hormone produced than others.

The bubbles are small.

Some studies have shown that children with bedwetting bubbles less than half the capacity of children who are dry. Why should that be? One explanation is that, if the bladder is emptied at random during the night, it will never be a chance to grow. Your brain is not the message to the urine, so the bladder emptied, and remains small. The limitation of the liquids would be the little bubble, because not enough fluid to drink in the day and lifting in the night.

you have difficulty sleeping, inability to wake up from a deep sleep.

This is the research that I am interesting. When I talked with other mothers and doctors about bedwetting, the majority of them told me that her child is a "very deep sleeper."? There seems to be very common in children bedwetting.

In fact, recent research shows that bedwetting children have the same pattern of sleep (in that it shows the same variance and individuality) as non-bedwetting that children and sleep disorders is actually how difficult it is to wake up . Parents as we believe that our child is sleeping deeply when in fact they are difficult to arouse.

So, they sleep deeply in the sense that it is difficult from sleep to awake, but not in the sense that they all sleep differently than other children. In fact, some studies show that they are slightly lighter sleep than non-bedwetting children, but even more difficult to awaken.

you have a bladder dysfunction.

Some studies have found that the muscle at the mouth of the bladder responsible for pushing the urine from the bladder (detrusor muscle) is hyperactive in the night. This means that the bubble is the whole night, and the brain will always signal the whole night, which they would not, leading to sleep disturbances. It seems that the body overcompensates for this constant disturbance and is difficult to awaken.

There is a lag in the brain /bladder connection.

Over time, children develop a connection between their bladder fully and the need for the pelvic floor to remain closed so that they don 't even in the wet night.

It seems that some children are slower to this link, and the brain is not the message to the urine in the bladder. Some children are dry at night by only two years old and have this connection soon.

Our central nervous system is responsible for all the brain /body connections, and it is assumed that some children with developmental delay in some parts of IT.

Even if your overactive bladder and /or you have a problem sleep arousal, your brain is not the message either. The cause is also a "what came first -? The chicken or the egg" category of the cause.

It is hereditary.

Several genes have been isolated bedwetting, and we know that you have a greatly increased chance of wetting the bed if a family is.

It is not clear what exactly is inherited. Is it the problem of sleep arousal, bladder dysfunction, the lack of ADH, or the lack of the brain /bladder connection?

Obviously we can not talk much about the fact that they inherited, but it is interesting to know. If one waits until the child from wetting the bed, it seems that they stop wet at a similar age to their relationship.

How do I know what the cause is for my child?

easy, unless our children to scientific experimentation, we are not to know which combination is that our specific child. Honestly, the scientists have no definitive answers, and you do not need to know the exact cause of your child for treatment, in order to be successful.

For this reason, it is essential that as many as possible of the causes, if we decide that it is time for our children is too dry.

 

Emma Sargent is a Coach, Author of two parenting books, Speaker, NLP Trainer, and mother of two. She has just put together a step-by-step approach to ending the misery of bedwetting for those children who simply have never been consistently dry at night and should have grown out of it. You can find it at http://StopBedwettingForGood.com/ The guide is based on her own experience with her son and the advice and research from the scientific community. She was dismayed at the lack of consistent information about the solutions and the high cost of some treatment. You can find out about Emma's other work at http://EmmaSargent.co.uk/
