Why the numerous accidents?
How do I deal without the anguish?
Frequent wetting can be quite frustrating for the parent
or caregiver because of the excess washing and mopping
involved. There are few reasons behind this and you
should go through the checklist to figure out why it
is happening, and that may help you deal with the situation
better.
1) Your child is probably not ready to be toilet trained.
Look out for the signs of readiness first before forcing
your child into action. And unprepared child is more
prone to making accidents. Always bear in mind that
in this department, your child will lead the way.
2) It is possible your child is already trained so why
the accidents you may wonder. It can be because your
child is too distracted by something and therefore may
ignore the call. Pee accidents are harder to prevent
as it is harder to hold in than number two. This is
a fairly common problem as children prefer to stay absorbed
in the activity and tend to delay the act of having
to get on the potty.
3) Research shows that insufficient fluid causes the
pee to be concentrated and this can in turn irritate
the bladder and cause the inadvertent wetting.
4) Your child may be drinking too many fizzy drinks
or fruit juices or beverages such as hot chocolate which
contains caffeine - this can cause frequent urination.
5) Your child may be having urinary tract infection.
Have your child assessed by a GP.
6) Your child may be constipated.
