Daytime wetting in children: how can this be resolved?

What causes daytime wetting in children?

Day time wetting is an incredibly common condition in children.  They usually attain continence by two to three years old, after potty training, where the parents remove the nappy and the child knows when they need to go to the toilet for a wee.

Typically speaking, daytime wetting often occurs in children who have previously been continent, who have gotten out of nappies, and then start to wet around the age of four or five. 

There are two groups of children who wet. The first group is children who are dry and then begin wetting again, known as secondary wetting. The second group is children who have never been dry; they can’t get out of nappies. This is referred to as primary wetting.
