"My 5 and a half year old son still wets his bed regularly. We have to wake him up before going to bed, otherwise he doesn't wake up on his own. What should we do?"

If your 5 and a half year old son is still wetting the bed regularly, it may be a case of nocturnal enuresis. This is not usually a cause for concern in boys before the age of 6. It is advisable to consult your son's pediatrician for guidance. The pediatrician can evaluate if there is an underlying cause and may prescribe medication if necessary. There are also techniques such as using a bedwetting alarm that can help in managing the issue. In the meantime, you can refer to parenting websites for tips on how to deal with bedwetting.
