Know the causes of urinary incontinence in children, a problem that is part of their development and growth.
If your little one suddenly wets the bed or has some urine leakage, it could be due to a problem called urinary incontinence, but although it sounds negative it can be common in their growth.
Urinary incontinence is the uncontrolled loss of urine at an age when you should have acquired continence. This problem usually goes away over time, so it is often considered part of a child’s maturational development. It should be noted that it is not just about wetting the bed.
Among the most frequent causes of this condition are: overproduction of urine at night, maturation delay, lack of ability to recognize the sensation of a full bladder, anxiety, urination, poor bladder capacity and even predisposition or hereditary factor.
This problem usually causes a lot of anguish and fear in children, so it is important that as parents give them confidence, strengthen their self-esteem and explain why it happens, so that they understand that it is a situation they will go through in their growth.
As parents, we must give ourselves the task of discovering the reasons why our children are inconsistent, have patience and from there look for the best solution. Remember that sometimes a few words of love and motivation can be enough; on the contrary, it is recommended to go to a specialist.
