My 10 year old son has a weak bladder and wears diapers 24/7. What are the best diapers for him?


Answer
Probably, ATTENDS; Huggies or Pampers. . The large size might be too big for a boy with a small frame.

But using a diaper is just a band-aid to a problem- esp on a 24/7 basis.

Bedwetting or nocturnal enuresis is an issue that millions of families face every night. It is extremely common among young kids but can last into the teen years.

Nocturnal Enuresis, the medical name for bedwetting, is a common problem in kids, especially children under the age of 6 years. About 13% of 6-year-olds wet the bed, while about 5% of 10-year-olds .

Remind your child to go to the bathroom one final time before bedtime. Try to have your child drink more fluids during the daytime hours and less at night. Fluids given later in the day should not have caffeine. Some parents try waking their kids in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. Many also find that using a motivational system, such as stickers for dry nights with a small reward (such as a book) after a certain number of stickers, can work well. Bedwetting alarms also can be helpful.

Possible causes:
1) Besides being a deep sleep disorder, research shows that bedwetting is also genetic. If both parents have a history of bedwetting there is a 77% chance the child will also wet the bed.

2) Wetting beds or pants can indicate emotional or psychological problem but most of the time; that's not the case. It"s wise (in my opinion) to investigate a medical reason for the problem before delving into the mental aspect of things

3) Bedwetting is often a sign of insecurity. Your son is at an age where he is probably starting to be more nervous about fitting in at school and keeping up with all the schoolwork and activities, etc. He is probably beginning to mature.

4) Bedwetting that begins abruptly or is accompanied by other symptoms can be a sign of another medical condition, so talk with your doctor.too, It"s wise (in my opinion) to investigate a medical reason for the problem before delving into the mental aspect of things

5)The doctor may check for signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI), constipation, bladder problems, or severe STRESS.

.6) He hasn't learned to accept that he has a body symptom

6) He may be prepubescent, so close to puberty that there is something changing in his life internally (that can cause a lot of internal jumbling of thoughts and feelings, and new stress in general which the newly growing up adolescentish person won't be able to put into words

6) I'm not one of those people that think that every behavior and condition means a trip to the Dr. or therapist. But in this instance, I would make an appointment with her pediatrician asap. Excessive nighttime urination is a symptom of juvenile diabetes. I sincerely hope that the problem is nothing serious, but you really need to get her checked outOther symptoms of juvenile diabetes may be excessive thirst, fatigue, and/or hunger, unexplained weight loss

7) The problem can also be caused by children who sleep extremely heavy/deep sleepers, and they can be deep sleepers due to exhaustion, or may be deep sleepers by nature. but that could dull the signal to wake up to go to the bathroom. kids that are overly tired, usually older children tend to have this problem

Remedy:

The doctor might recommend DDVAP, a nose spray (very expensive)or a bed alarm. I have an older bedwetter (who has never been dry) and we use DDVAP on rare occasins, but on a daily basis he wears a night diaper and plastic pants (which he puts on himself). We definetly don't spend any time talking negatively about his bedwetting and make sure he is loved.

Bedwetting alarms to make him aware that he was wet. Try instituting a no drinking policy after 7 pm (he goes to bed at 8:30. And to definitely go to the bathroom before going to bed.


Remind your child to go to the bathroom one final time before bedtime. Try to have your child drink more fluids during the daytime hours and less at night. Fluids given later in the day should not have caffeine.

A mother employed this method. She simply took away the big pullups, and explained to her son that she was going to help him to not have to wear the embarrassing pull ups anymore, and help him stop needing them. She set aside a few weeks and fully prepared herself to be washing bed linens for weeks to come.

But instead, within a week or so, her son stopped wetting the bed. Sure, there was an accident or two she said a few months later, but that was it! 99% of the time, he didn't wet the bed. She said that she wasn't sure why it worked.

Before taking away the pullups, they would wet every night. Why does her method worked? She said that she thinks that they have gotten so good at making the pullups so waterproof, that her son never felt the discomfort of really being wet. And so it did not bother him. Once she took the pull ups away, it bothered him to be all wet, and he became aware that he was wetting the bed.

She also made sure that he uses the bathroom before bedtime.

How do you get a group of 2 1/2 to 3 year olds to be quiet and listen?

I am new at teaching a Sunday School Class this year and my co-teacher and I have 8-10 pre-school age children (around 2 1/2 years old to 3 years old). We have them for 1 and a 1/2 hours and they have already been given a snack by the teachers before us, so we don't have the option to teach the lesson while they are sitting and eating. Any suggestions would be appreciated!


Answer
Play "Simon says...be quiet" lol jk

Read a book to them, show them movies that are educational, play musical chairs with music that is enlightning, use flash cards to help them learn, get out the coloring books and crayons, end the day by everyone finishing the line "I am grateful for...", sing songs, dance. Instead of making their lesson as a sit and learn lesson, be creative and make it more active.

My grandmother used to teach a class and she would do a lot of fun art with them. For example build a church out of sugar blocks, icing, and graham crackers for the roof. We would teach them prayers as a group and an individual basis. Her age group was a year or two older, though.
