Week 4 – Just say NO!
No is a word that many of us could use some practice saying. We say yes to everything because we think we should be able to 'do it all.' Remember that you can't be everything to everybody. Saying yes to everything means being overbooked, overstressed and anxious. Don't feel guilty about saying no - and don't feel you need an excuse. Saying no can be an empowering word. Read more tips

Expert Q&A
 
My 10-year-old daughter, who was always wet in the morning, has started to have some dry mornings. Keeping track, she was dry for about 15 days last month. Does this mean she is starting to grow out of bedwetting?

Answer

It sounds like she is starting to outgrow the bedwetting. Whether her issue is that of a small bladder or deep sleep, she is starting to adapt, and those dry mornings should continue to increase over the next couple of months until she's dry every night.
