AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bedwetting is most often related to deep sleep-the bladder is full, but the child doesn’t wake up. Some children have smaller bladders or produce more urine during the night.

Detailed explanation-2: -A deep-sleeping child may have a harder time developing an effective signaling system that wakes them up when they need to urinate. Instead, the child’s pelvic floor relaxes during sleep, and bedwetting occurs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Someone who experiences bedwetting remains primarily in the deep Stage 4 sleep too long; therefore, they’re missing uninterrupted cycles and limiting dream sleep. Undoubtedly, this compromises normal, healthy, and restful sleep.

Detailed explanation-4: -Your child’s bladder may not be developed enough to hold urine produced during the night. Inability to recognize a full bladder. If the nerves that control the bladder are slow to mature, a full bladder may not wake your child-especially if your child is a deep sleeper. A hormone imbalance.
