Or else she is rebelling. If the doctor finds nothing wrong, then ignore it until she decides to use the toilet. Make it her problem. |

Overnight, she definately can't control it, she's asleep. I wouldn't take the Dr's word that she's lazy, maybe she is, but that's not necessarily the reason for it. It's possible she has overactive bladder and really can't help/hold it. Maybe with 4 boys, she feels a little left out and this is her way of getting attention from you. Maybe she has an infection. There are many explanations other than her being lazy. |

Then don't ask her if she wet them. If you can see that they are wet, she knows you know .. and asking her only humiliates her. and i check her and she did. i have talked to her dr but she said its just she gets lazy.. egads. sounds like the doc is lazy not the kid. Has the doc done ANY testing? i dont know what to do.. at time she smells of urine and i dont know what to do anymore. Tell her you don't blame her, tell you that you will no longer give her a hard time about it, tell her that you love her and that you know what she is dealing with is diffucult. Support her. Let her have some dignity. tried the pull-ups.. tried making her sit when she wets at outings.. or playing.. put her to bed early. told her how she can get another infection, she had one so bad they gave her shots.. How long ago was that? The infection could have caused damage. what do i do?? i have 4 boy and have no problem with the 3 older ones wetting up until 1 st grade 1 wore goodnights but stopped really fast.. they never have wetting problems.. any ideas?? thanks |

Some kids would rather not interrupt anything in order to go to the bathroom, and so they hold it until they're physically incapable of holding it anymore. If that's what she's doing, then you just have to set up times when she needs to go -- every time before you leave the house, when you get back, before meals, before bedtime, whatever. The Bug virtually never says she has to go potty unless she has to poop, and can hold her urine for 12 hours. *I* need to stay on top of how long it's been since she peed to make sure she goes often enough, and I tell her when she needs to go.

Hello, i have a 7 year old daughter whom is wetting her pants day and night The others who have answered you here are correct, do not punish her for being wet. Something is very wrong. It might be behavioral, but that is unlikely: it is unlikely because she is wetting at night too. Possible physical causes include damage due to an infection or abuse, and a tumor. You don't mention consulting a pediatric urologist. Please do that now. You don't mention an MRI scan of her pelvis: please ask the urologist about this. Please find a more diligent pediatrician. My daughter had a large tumor removed from her pelvis. I cannot tell you how many other parents of survivors of pelvic tumors I have run across who insisted to their pediatricians for months or years that something was wrong, only to be told the child was lazy / slow / spoiled.

If it started recently, it is one of the signs of sexual abuse and/or trama. If this has always been the case with her, eventually she will get tired of being wet and use the bathroom. It could also be her bladder, or kidneys. The doctor should have checked for all of the things everyone has mentioned. I have to agree that the doctor is lazy. -- Message posted via FamilyKB.com http://www.familykb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...nting/200710/1 |

Or else she is rebelling. If the doctor finds nothing wrong, then ignore it until she decides to use the toilet. Make it her problem. I agree but with a little more detail. First, who is yelling and getting all mad? You or her? If it is you, stop. It is her body and her bodily function. And you cannot control it. If she is MAD, then maybe she is out of control and needs help. Did you doc examine her for infection or other possible physical cause? If not, get another doc who will and wont just jump to too lazy. If a physical cause is ruled out, have her handle the results of the messes. No angry words. She has to pack and carry clean clothes to change into. She packs plastic bags to put the wet clothes into when she is at school. She puts them in the washing machine at the end of the day. She changes herself. She cleans up the floor, the bootster seat... whatever. No muss. No fuss. Simply tell her that taking care of her wetness is her responsibility. She can choose the way of cleaning up the wetness or she can choose to go in the toilet. I have a sense, built on nowhere NEAR enough evidence so please feel free to completely ignore me if I am off base, that there si something goin on here. Did she formerly use the toilet successfully? If so, what changed? Could she be negative attention seeking in the absence of positive attention. This is very easy at about the 7yo age when school and activities start to make life so busy sometimes we forget to make time for Mom and "baby." (Wont they always be our babies?) Or perhaps she had an accident once and the reaction was bad enough to scare her into fearing her own ability to use the toilet? Or of course, a physical cause. Anyway best of luck. |

I have a hard time with laziness as a cause. She is peeing her pants At School. Not even in 1st and 2nd grade to children want to be wet and smelly. That is *embarrassing*. It's possible she has overactive bladder and really can't help/hold it. Maybe with 4 boys, she feels a little left out and this is her way of getting attention from you. Maybe she has an infection.
