Bed wetting: She should have a urological workup to rule out a kidney anomaly as well.

Enuresis: Bedwetting is an unrelated problem to gastroschisis she was born with. Medical treatment can be rendered to her when she turns age 6. Alarm devices (wet alarm) can also be utilized with high success. Discuss with her pediatrician for further details.
