Quote From: minerj73About my "bed wetting" 10 yr old... We tried some nose spray...didn't seem to work.
The pediatrician acted like it was not a big deal and eventually it would go away, but I feel so bad for my son having to deal with this.
I don't think he had any mental issues...he doesn't display anything related to any disorders, but it may be something to look into. ?
He is a big boy...90% of his age in height and 97% of his age in weight. Maybe that could play a part in his ability to hold his bladder???
His father and I have been divorced for several years...maybe the insecurity issue plays a part???
I just don't know:( May need to try another doctor.
Thank you
Have you had him in therapy?
I would say they are some underlying mental issues with regards to your divorce.
I would ask these questions... was he bedwetting before the divorce? If so has it gotten worse?
Does he have any tpe of delays emotionally or mentally?
If you think the wetting has gotten worse since the divorce I would seek a child psychologist for him to work on his issues. Most children internalize issues such as divorce and it can reak havoc on their whole system.
Also if you are uncomfortable with your pediatrician's advise ask to havea referral to a child urologist.
Hope this helps a little
