Bedwetting Stopped
Helpful Tips
                                                   Bedwetting Stopped - Helpful Tips

During the many years prior to our house having dry nights, we tried 3 different alarm systems
and every method imaginable including:

·       
 *Hypnosis
·        *Acupuncture
·        *DDAVP (Bedwetting drug)
·        *Special expensive counseling
·        *“Guaranteed” cures.  Be careful of these claims.  They can be costly, and there is no
·        guarantee.

Since each of the above attempts to resolve our child’s bedwetting failed, we strongly
recommend what worked for us:  the combination of the Seven Steps to Nighttime Dryness and
Malem Enuresis Alarms.

Over the years, we have learned some helpful, valuable tips that we would like to pass along to
other families that are planning to use a bedwetting alarm:

1.For the first several nights of training, your child will need a parents help in waking and may
not remember waking.  This is typical, your child is learning a new behavior and this takes time
and patients.

2.  For children who are deep sleepers, even when the alarm wakes them up, a parent needs to
make sure they are fully awake and aware of what is happening.  Gently applying a wet
washcloth to the face will aid in making sure your child is fully awake.

3.  Recommendations from the American Enuresis Foundation include greatly reducing or
eliminating the following food groups during treatment because of the effects they have on the
body and sleep patterns:

·       
*Sugar
·       *Caffeine
·       * Dairy
·       * Foods loaded with preservatives and food coloring
·       *Fast food
·       *Pre-packaged foods

These foods can be slowly introduced back into the diet after successful treatment.

4.  There is no secret cure for bedwetting.  Only close parental involvement, great instructions as
are found in Renee Merser’s book and using the latest in alarm technology, Malem Alarms,
works.  Persistence is the key.  The road to a dry bed is not easy; it takes love, time and most of
all, patience.  

5.  Malem alarms do work through behavioral conditioning.  Your child deserves the best. By
purchasing a Malem alarm, you will avoid alarms that:

·        *
Are difficult to hook up
·        *Are not loud enough
·        *Turn off before the child wakes
·        *Use costly special batteries
·        *Are poorly manufactured
       *Cannot be placed close to the ear

More helpful tips will be sent along with every purchase of a Malem Enuresis alarm.
