The causes of bedwetting are a combination of

VERY DEEP SLEEP as well as the frequently ignored, small bladder capacity, large volume of urine at night and a sluggish bowel. 

The drinking program and alarm are demonstrated on the bonus Bedwetting Institute® DVD included with all alarms.

The step by step program was developed by Continence Physiotherapist Margaret O'Donovan and gives busy parents a common sense plan to follow at home. The combination of strategies reduces the risk of a relapse by complementing the alarm with all the hints and secrets on the DVD. 

Bedwetting Alarms have been used as a treatment for bed wetting (enuresis) since the 1930s. The alarm sounds when it detects any moisture. The moisture sensor can be an underpants sensor or an alarm sensor mat which goes on the bed. The alarm box for the mat type goes on the bedside table and the alarm box for the underpants type attaches to the pyjama top.

When an alarm is used alone without any other measures about two thirds of children achieve dryness initially. Unfortunately, about half of these children who initially stop wetting start having wet nights again within 12 months. This leaves the child upset and parents frustrated. Research has shown that using a combination approach right from the start is more likely to lead to a long term cure. The Bedwetting Institute® DVD with Continence Physiotherapist Margaret O'Donovan outlines a step by step plan to follow at home along with using a bedwetting alarm.
