Is this normal?

2 Replies

Is soiling your pants at night also a result of bedwetting? It's only happened to me a few times, but it scares and annoys me at the same time.

Hi land. Soiling is a sign of constipation - and so is bedwetting. Not having control over your own wee and poo can be very upsetting or scary for children and teenagers and they will often go into denial as a way of dealing with it - which can be very difficult to deal with as a parent! I know you posted a while ago but please call our Helpline if you would like any help with this problem - our number is 0808 169 9949

I just have one question. Do you think I need a babysitter just because I wear nappies. I'm old enough to change myself, but my parents dont trust me well enough; so they hire a babysitter 2 years older than me to help!!!
