My son is having problems at night with bed wetting. How do I help fix this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions?

It's just something that they will have to outgrow. My son still wets the bed sometimes and he just turned 7. What I do, is I limit his drinking about 1.5 hours before he goes to bed. Then about 1.5 - 2 hours after he is in bed, I will wake him up to go to the bathroom. But we pick a fun word that he has to remember in the morning (so I know he actually woke up - he's a sleepwalker). Or we count to 30 and he has to remember the number we ended on. I also put a mattress pad underneath him just in case he does wet. That way, I only have to take that off and clean him up. And the bed stays dry. Best of luck!!
