Some may find it surprising that the most effective treatment for urinating children in bed is honey. If a child continues to urinate in bed after the age of three, this is already becoming a problem. However, it's one of the most common things to worry about, not only children but the whole family.
For a very long period, when asked what to do, how to get rid of the child's habit of peeing in bed at night, doctors answered that it would eventually pass. The answer was that there was no particular remedy. As a rule, easily excitable children, who are very sensitive to excitement, urinate in bed. Most children under two years of age can regulate urination during the day, and after a few months, most of them stop urinating at night in bed. Children usually urinate in bed once or twice a night at night; they can pee in bed and after regular bladder work has already been done, sometimes spontaneously due to a previous habit.
Some children pee in bed in the first hour after going to bed. With others, this happens in the morning. Some children wake up during or immediately after the act of urinating; others do so again without waking up. When a child wakes up in the morning, the bed can be dry and very often the child pisses when they have dreams. For example, the child will be opioid during the act of urinating and feels as if he or she is sitting on a pot or in another suitable place.
Almost always children who are prone to urinating in bed at night are very nervous. They can also bite their nails, suck their fingers and be irritated in every possible way; sometimes they have infantile speech.
Traditional medicine divides the ways to get rid of the habit of urinating in bed into 2 types: prevention and active therapy. Sometimes it helps to prevent urination by trying to regulate urination. It should start at around 1 year of age. The child should be placed on a pot at regular intervals (at certain times), e.g. after a nap, after a meal, and first every 3 hours, and then less frequently as urination regulation improves. At two years of age, most children usually ask for a pot. Active therapy aims to find a therapeutic agent that combines the ability to attract and retain water with a calming effect on the child's body. Such a remedy should be acceptable for a long course of treatment and not cause harm to the child. It should be acceptable for use at appropriate times and, most importantly, should be tolerated by the child.
Traditional medicine believes that honey meets the requirements. Being hygroscopic, honey can attract and condense moisture from the air. Honey levuleza has the greatest moisture-attracting ability among other sugars. This ability of honey can be observed on bread and confectionery products baked with honey, they are always slightly damp and retain their taste characteristics for a long time ... Due to the hygroscopic nature of honey, the ability to condense water, honey is not recommended to store in the refrigerator or the basement. For its storage, a dry, not very warm place in a tightly closed container is more suitable. Honey due to its hygroscopic properties will retain moisture in the child's body during the night's rest, preventing urination in bed.
Suppose that your child has a habit of urinating in bed at night. What advice can folk medicine give you? Give your child a teaspoon of honey for the night. Honey has a double effect. First, it acts on the nervous system as a sedative. Secondly, as it has already been shown, it attracts and retains moisture during the night's rest, as if reducing the load on the kidneys.
As you continue to use honey for this purpose, you will learn how to determine when to give it to your child. For example, after visiting a children's party, when the nervous system is excited, he needs a good rest, with a teaspoon of honey at night will have a beneficial effect. Also, with increased fluid intake, especially after 5 p.m., you are worried that your child may pee in bed at night if his nervous system is not relaxed.
When you learn how to regulate your child's urination by giving honey for the night, try to see if your child can regulate urination without it. You will soon learn to determine if your child will urinate in bed or not from some signs. By gradually reducing the dose of honey, you can eventually eliminate it. But now you want to always have the honey at hand so that you can use it again if necessary. In any case, honey always has a calming effect on the nervous system.
