A member asked:
He is still wet his bed at night. is this normal or what ??? he is 5 yrs now
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: About 15% of 5 y/o still wet the bed at night, and 5% of 10 y/o do the same. This is related to immature connections between the bladder and brain. Do not make child feel bad, nothing they can do about it. Be patient.
