daughter still wees in daytime at age 8, help

[noah]

has anyone any advice, am at the end of my tether, have been to docs and hospital and been told there is no medical problem but it still happens and she doesnt seem overly embarrased about it, have tried talking, pleading, crying, shouting, you name it Ive tried it, help..... what can I do

don't know what to suggest hun? How long has it been going on and how often in a day?
I use homeopathy a lot with our family and that's all I can suggest.

have you tried the usual advice? Give her lots of big drinks during the day (5 or 6 I think) but make the last big one no later than tea time. This gets the bladder used to holding large amounts of liquid. Make sure she goes to the toilet regularly during the day and check a sample at the doctors for urine infections. Obviously a toilet trip just before bedtime as well.

sorry noah just reread and noticed this daytime - most of the advice still goes though.

it maybe is only once every couple of months but that is more than enough eh? she knows its wrong, is actually very clever girl, but for some reason she says she cant stop herself doing it but have been to the docs time and time again to be told her kidneys / bladder are all fine and even been to the hospital for a scan, absolutely nothing came up, I just dont know what to do, she came hole from school today and told me that shed done it+that she hadnt meant to + I just sat and cried, dont know what else to do, who to talk to about it

How do the school deal with it?

noah - has you doctor mentioned a Continence Advisor? There is usually one at the hospital and it sounds like your dd needs a referral to her (they are nurses with extra training/qualifications in management of all these sorts of problems). The CA can give useful suggestions, especially as you seem to have ruled out a 'medical' cause. It is distressing for you to deal with as there doesn't seem to be a back up to the initial investigations leaving you totally unsupported with your dd's problem.

How does your dd deal with the episodes when they happen? It could be something as simple as certain drinks that are irritating her system, not an allergy, but a kind of trigger factor? Often something with caffiene in it, which is most soft drinks.

Ring the surgery and ask if someone can give you a phone number for the Continence Advisor - you may not have to go through the GP. Be persistent. If they don't know at the surgery, ring the hospital switchboard and ask them to be put through.

thank you dazzlincaz will try doing that today
