Are there any foods you prevent your child from eating because they trigger bedwetting? How do you manage it?
"I have found that caffeine is a trigger for my 5-year-old-daughter. She does not drink Coke at home but is allowed to when we go out to eat. Although she has almost "outgrown" her bedwetting, on the days she drinks caffeine, she will remind me that she needs to wear GoodNites® Underpants to bed."

"I prohibit all my children from having soft drinks after noon, even though only my 9-year-old daughter actually wets the bed frequently (her bedtime is at 8:00 p.m.). She's also been having frequent daytime accidents, so I have now limited them to one soft drink per day and a maximum of four glasses of liquid and no apple anything except the fruit itself. Originally these rules only applied to my daughter, but she got jealous of her siblings and, with the help of her brother and sister, was sneaking two more sodas and drinking them in bed around 9:00 p.m. Since then the rule has applied to the whole family except me, but the kids don't usually catch me having my five cups of coffee at 5:00 a.m. before I head off to work!"
