        I have a good friend that needs some help with a few bedwetters. They have been to countless doctors, and even put the girls on a prescription (which eventually damages kidneys, she found out later) to help. Nothing seems to do the trick. The girls are 8 and 10.

          I’ve been looking into that as well. Something to take into consideration is why is there bed-wetting. The cure needs to match the symptom. I found this site helpful _

          Also, an herbalist friend I respect told me her child’s bed-wetting went away when they addressed the child’s constipation. (jaw-dropping). I’m looking into this, but it makes sense – the gut biome is related to so much in our bodies.

          Hope this helps!

            I’ve known some kids who were just very deep sleepers, and simply did not wake up to go to the bathroom.  If an adult woke the children to toilet before retiring to bed themselves, it usually prevented the bedwetting, and helped trained the children’s brains to wake when necessary.

              There can be a lot of causes and underlying factors. If it’s just the bladder being silly, mullein root is often helpful. Here’s the formula I use (often works on elderly incontinence too).

              2 Mullein Root
              1 Horsetail Aerial Arts
              1 Marshmallow Root
              1 Raspberry Leaf
              1 Uva Ursi Leaf

              Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

                      Either way.
