Don't worry about it - lots of kids wet their beds and its normal. Most children will stop by about 11 or 12 at the latest. Don't buy into the "is something happening at home" thing, its just kids. Be patient, and don't make a big deal about it, because you child may pick up that you think something is wrong with them.

Sometimes its a hormone that doesn't work properly and you can get medication for it these days, but I would leave it a while before you got too worried. Talk to your doctor next time you visit.

I tell my children, Don't be ashamed, you can't help it because your too sleepy,  if you wet your bed its ok, just strip the sheets in the morning and put them into the washing. Then they ask me to run the bath.

Is something maybe happening at home or at school, it could the smallest thing, like different teacher, someone didn't sit beside him?anything at all?

My nephew is 8 his mum is going through a divorce etc.. and he has to wear wet nights for big boys, he's just very sensitive to his surroundings, Roisin does'nt allow him to drink before he goes to bed like yourself... She doesn't shout at him either, but I'm sure like you you'd do anything to stop it!

He can't have sleep overs as he doesn't want anyone knowing!

I hope you find something useful

Make sure your son doesn't drink an hour before bedtime maybe he just has had to much to drink on the nights that he has accidents.

Does your child have bad dreams? I know my mom would tell me when I was his age I would wet my bed also b/c I would have bad dreams and be afraid to get out of my bed to go use the bathroom. This could be the problem or it could be that he may just get afraid b/c it is night time and there is no one around to let him know it is ok to go, that nothing will bother him. Good luck and I am sure my day is coming with my daughters. The other thing I can suggest is what my parents did with me is a plastic wrap under his sheet on the mattress so it wouldn't ruin  the mattress. And just let him know that when he can stop wetting the bed this will come off. It worked for me, or so my mom says.

A lot of times in your child would have forgotten to go to the toilet before they went to bed. You dont wnat to nag however they will forget to go at times and you will have the night time accident. Dont make a big deal of it and remind them at the time to go to the toilet before bed. Some times fizzy drinks late in the afternnon or early evening can add to that problem so avoid that if you can
